BSOD at random times ever since PC was built

dicedburrito · 20 May 2017

I built my PC last year and have been getting random BSODs ever since. I have reinstalled and updated Windows 2 or 3 times, but it has no effect. I even rebuilt my PC recently, which stopped BSODs for a few days, but now they are happening again. I thought it could be the ram, but I ran memtest and I got 19 passes with 0 fails.
I don't know if this is relevant, but in some games, when I load in to a world, I get stuttering for 30 seconds to a minute, until I think the world/map has loaded properly (e.g COD IW, GTA 5).

Any help is appreciated, thanks.Attachment 135855

Several of the dumps indicate memory_corruption, one indicates a problem with your Nvidia card or driver:

Code:

BugCheck 1000007E, {ffffffffc0000005, fffff8046a9579f2, ffffce00602e4de8, ffffce00602e4620}
Probably caused by : nvlddmkm.sys ( nvlddmkm+5779f2 )

Remove and install latest Nvidia drivers:

I suggest completely uninstalling the Nvidia display drivers using Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) from WagnardMobile (near bottom of page) then get the latest driver for you Nvidia card here: NVIDIA Driver Downloads

Then do a custom install of only the NVidia graphics driver and the PhysX driver.

See if that gets rid of the problem.

There is also a problem with athwnx.sys.

Code:

ffffce00`602e42c8  fffff804`69a4858b*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for athwnx.sys
*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for athwnx.sys
 athwnx+0x13858b

Driver Description: Driver for Qualcomm Atheros Extensible Wireless LAN (CB42/CB43/MB42/MB43) Network Adapter device driver.
The one you have is dated Tue Mar 1 03:39:03 2016. Check to see if therir is a newer one available.

Thanks, I'll try that and update you

I reinstalled Nvidia drivers and could not find an updated driver for the wireless adapter, but unfortunately I got one a few hours later. I've attached a dump. This time the reason was VIDEO_SCHEDULER_INTERNAL_ERROR.Attachment 136244

Still indicating a problem with your Nvidia card or driver.

Use DDU again and as I stated before, do a custom install of only the NVidia graphics driver and the PhysX driver.

Try some of the older Nvidia drivers: NVIDIA

Yeah before I reinstalled the drivers, I did a DDU. I'm not sure what else to do?

Try older drivers is all I can think of, or replace the Nvidia card.
