BSOD after Fresh Install Windows 10 Critical Structure Corruption
Hi all,
I had been experiencing lots of various BSODs, so I did a fresh install of windows 10 from the original DVD. Since reinstall, I started having BSODs again. Ive spent a lot of time on forums to try to fix this, leading to the results below.
Some relevant info:
System specs: Windows 10 x64, i7 6700, 16 GB DDR4, ASRock H170A-X1/3.1 MB, bios American Megatrends Inc. P7.00 date 11/03/16, PNY CS1311 960 GB SSD, WD 2 TB HDD, Nvidia GTX 1080.
Windows updates: upgraded except for: Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3200970) and Security Update for Windows (KB3200970)
Ive installed minimal programs and drivers since the reinstall, including: Razer Synapse, logitech gaming software, manual install of nvida drivers , CPU-Z 1.78, WhoCrashed, WinDBG, Battlenet,
My dump files can be found attached in the format of these forums or here: Dump files - Google Drive
WhoCrashed gave the following result:
Bug check description: This indicates that the kernel has detected critical kernel code or data corruption.
This might be a case of memory corruption. More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.
WinDbg analyze -v was also inconclusive.
I tried all of the following several times. The results posted are typical.
Sfc /scannow
Results: Verification 54% complete. Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation.
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
Results: Successful.
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /source:WIM:E:\Sources\Install.wim:1 /LimitAccess

Thanks in advance for any help, and please let me know if there is any more information that might be helpful.
Update:
Memtest:
ddr4 2134 stick 1 slot 1 immediately showed 5 errors.
ddr 4 2400 stick 1 slot: 1- 8 passes, no errors
NB: as of the OP i was using 2134 stick one in slot 1 and 2400 stick 1 in slot 3. I have an additional two sticks that were unused at the time of OP, which we will label 2134 stick two and 2400 stick two. I might as well test them while Im at it.
Update 2:
It turns out I have an additional issue. Somehow I installed windows 10 pro instead of windows 10 home. Therefore my windows activation failed. So after I test the ram Ill have to do clean install anyway. Im not sure what, if any, effect this could have on my previous issues.
