    BSOD critical structure corruption on a clean install of Win10 Pro


    Hi everyone,

    I've been having problems with my computer BSOD'ing, even under light usage (internet browsing, etc). The computer will crash randomly, sometimes several times an hour, or sometimes it will go for a week with no problem. It started a couple months ago, with several BSOD error codes but the most frequent code being Critical Structure Corruption. I decided to reinstall Windows10 from scratch, as I had read that the upgrade from Win7 to Win10 sometimes caused errors.

    I am now running a fresh reinstall of Win10 Pro, but the BSOD'ing has started again : the only code shown is now Critical Structure Corruption, so at least the other error codes seem to have been fixed by the reinstall.

    Any idea what the problem could be? Here's the log info :

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi f33dback,

    Please update the BIOS and let me know if that helps :)
    ASRock > H97M Pro4

    If it doesn't help then I suggest to run MemTest86+ as a next step.




    Diagnostic Test

     RAM TEST


    Run MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM. MemTest86+ - Test RAM - Windows 10 Forums

    Note   Note


    MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 complete passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.


    Make a photo of the result and post it.

    Addition:
    If errors show up you can stop the test, remove all sticks but 1 and test this single stick in each slot for 8 passes or until errors show, switch sticks and repeat.
    If errors show up and you see them a lot later, no problem, the errors don't affect the test.

    Hi axe0,

    I just updated the BIOS to the latest version, and so far no BSOD'ing! (Fingers crossed!) I will post an update in a week to confirm that the problem is solved after a bit of stress testing and general usage. If the problem reappears, I will test my memory like you mentioned as the next step and post the results.

    Thanks for your help!
