    Whea_uncorrectable_error


    Hello o/

    Two days ago I had my first BSOD with this new computer. I attempted to restore from a point in the middle of last month. The restore failed, apparently interfered with by Avast.

    I ran WhoCrashed today which traces the first BSOD to nvhda64v.sys as SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M. Earlier in the week I had had a problem with GeForce Experience hanging while installing drivers (I'm not sure it's connected.) WhoCrashed suggested it was the HDMI Audio driver.

    Today
    I Had a series of BSODs all labelled as WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR After the first of today I did a fresh install of the NVIDIA drivers via GeForce Experience in the hopes that might deal with the issue.

    BSODs did continue to drop, unfortunately, though now WhoCrashed traces them all to hal.dll

    It bears mentioning that all the BSODs occurred while I was playing World of Tanks, though the last one occurred immediately after logging out of the game, I saw the desktop before the Blue Screen screeched at me.

    I've no idea where to proceed from at this point.

    Edit: A bad sentence for some clarity

    Please check ASUS for BIOS updates.

    Thanks for the reply.
    I've located a rather long series of updates for my motherboard's BIOS, after looking around I should look to use the newest of these?
    I ask only because I'm a little twitchy when messing with the BIOS.

    Alright I find myself completely unable to access the BIOS at all.

    My MotherBoard should support UEFI, but it's not there. Advanced Options from Advanced Startup shows no UEFI button and System info Shows it's in Legacy BIOS mode, which is apparently strange for this Board.

    The upshot is that after Shift Shutdown I can't get F2, Del or anything else to work, the computer runs and the monitor simply remains in inactive state, a blank screen as if nothing is being sent to it. I've turned off Fast Startup in Power Options and that didn't help either.

    I've burned most of the day trying to do this and looking for solutions online but nothing seems to work. On the upside I can't turn my computer into a brick because it won't let me in.

    Could you try to reset the BIOS settings?

    Alright, then.
    I'm sorry for the late return to the thread, But I've been kept busy.
    I have managed to figure out why I couldn't see the BIOS screen and, of course, it leaves me feeling stupid. When I was initially setting up my system I had trouble getting the monitor to be recognized and at one point had both VGA and the HDMI cables connected to the GPU. I never unplugged the extraneous VGA cable. I came across mention of this as something that would confuse the utility as I searched the net and boum all of a sudden I can see the ASUS' UEFI tool.
    So now I've got the BIOS updated from 0901 to 2001.
    I'll try and see if I can set off a blue screen (since this BSOD seems partial to World of Tanks) and determine if the original problem persists.

    Well, that didn't take long.
    Same crash error.
    I'll post another log in case it's helpful.
