Playing "Rise of the Tomb Raider" when the BSOD appeared and advised me of the problem. Have since Rolled back Nvidia driver to previous version.
Warning
Please make a backup of your important files and get your rescue media or create one.
Please create a restore point.
Please follow this tutorial to run driver verifier.
Driver verifier stresses your drivers and will crash your pc if any driver fails due to a violation.
Driver verifier should be performed for a max of 48 hours, or when you have a bluescreen, whatever comes first.
If driver verifier has found a violation and you can't get back into windows normally, try to boot into safe mode and reset in safe mode driver verifier, or in the troubleshooting options open command prompt and type verifier /reset.
Note
Your system will act very sluggishly while driver verifier is enabled, this is normal as your drivers will be being subjected to heavy testing in order to make them crash.
Hello Sir,Thanks for the prompt reply. I followed your insructions and the culprit turned out to be IOMap64.sys. I did a search and ascertained the most likely culprit to be ASUS software which came bundled with the motherboard. I don't use it so I've removed it. I'll see how It goes from there.
