    Numerous BSODs Since Before/After Upgrading To Win10


    I realise the title isn't greatly descriptive but that's because nearly every BSOD I get is a new one so trying to pinpoint a particular bugcheck seems like a wasted effort. For clarity, my specs are as follows:

    OS: Windows 10 Home 64 Bit
    CPU: AMD FX-8120
    RAM: 16GB Dual Channel DDR3 671MHz (Team Group Inc)
    MoBo: Gigabyte GA-970A-D3 Rev 1.0 (latest beta BIOS)(BSODs happened with the same frequency on the previous F12 BIOS too)
    GPU: 4GB Zotac GeForce GTX 1050Ti
    HDD: Seagate ST2000DM001-1CH164 (2TB)

    It's difficult to say when these BSODs usually occur, most of the time it's while I'm playing something but that's predominantly what I do on this PC regardless. They have happened numerous times while watching videos or quite literally doing nothing though.

    I'd honestly appreciate any help as this is an issue I've been wrestling with for years. I upgraded from Windows 7 in 2015 and I was getting these even before that.

    Hi there,

    I can see a lot of problems your system has. First of all we should start with the analysis results of the BSOD dumps.

    memory_corruption and network driver are shown on those dumps:

    Code:
    0x0000003D:    INTERRUPT_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (14.08.2017 22:20:15) [Windows 10] 
     
    CAUSED BY:     memory_corruption    
                   rt640x64.sys [23.03.2017] * Realtek NICDRV 8169 PCIe GBE Family Controller driver  * => http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false 
                   ndis.sys [12.07.2017] * NDIS 6.20 Wrapper Driver (Windows System File) 
     
    PROCESS:       iw3mp.exe
    Code:
    0x0000003D:    INTERRUPT_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (8.08.2017 21:15:05) [Windows 10] 
     
    CAUSED BY:     memory_corruption    
     
    PROCESS:       System
    Code:
    0x00000050:    PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (20.07.2017 04:27:49) [Windows 10] 
     
    CAUSED BY:     memory_corruption    
     
    PROCESS:       chrome.exe 
     
    Usual causes:  Defective hardware (particularly memory - but not just RAM), Faulty system service, Antivirus,  Device driver, NTFS corruption, BIOS

    1) So, at first step u should start with testing the memory:



    Diagnostic Test

     RAM TEST


    Run MemTest86+ V5.01 to analyse your RAM. MemTest86+ - Test RAM - Windows 10 Forums



    Note   Note
    MemTest86+ V5.01 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.

    More Info here: Microsoft Community


    Make a photo of the result and post it.

    2) When memory testing is done you should update or roll back the realtek network driver:
    rt640x64.sys [23.03.2017] * Realtek NICDRV 8169 PCIe GBE Family Controller driver * => Realtek

    There are a lot of errors in the windows eventlog which indicate a problem with the network device or network driver:
    Code:
    2017-07-01 14:24:25  Warning: WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped. Module Path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\bcmihvsrv64.dll  2017-07-01 14:25:57  Warning: WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped. Module Path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\bcmihvsrv64.dll 
    2017-07-01 14:36:01  Warning: The network interface "NETGEAR WNDA3100v2 N600 Wireless Dual Band USB Adapter" has begun resetting.  There will be a momentary disruption in network connectivity while the hardware resets. Reason: The network driver detected that its hardware has stopped responding to commands.  
    2017-07-01 14:36:03  Warning: The network interface "NETGEAR WNDA3100v2 N600 Wireless Dual Band USB Adapter" has begun resetting.  There will be a momentary disruption in network connectivity while the hardware resets. Reason: The network driver detected that its hardware has stopped responding to commands.  
    2017-07-01 14:43:05  Error: Miniport PdaNet Broadband Adapter, {E13B511F-8C4F-48FA-8F5B-B4B3DAE787A7}, had event Network Interface deleted while PNP Device still exists. Note that this event is provided for informational purpose and might not be an error always (Eg: In case of vSwitch which was recently un-installed or a LBFO team was removed)

    3) U should also reinstall the newest NVIDIA GPU driver because there was an error message too:
    Code:
    2017-08-02 13:36:33  Warning: Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
    Please use DDU for reinstalling the GPU driver:
    Display Driver Uninstaller: How to use
    Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a small software that can help the user to uninstall the display driver from the users PC. It can uninstall the driver for all the lead display chip developers, viz. Nvidia, AMD and Intel.

    4) Please uninstall EVGA Software, because its known for causing bluescreens:
    - EVGA PrecisionX 16

    5) Since are a few filesystem errors too u should also do an filesystem repair and HDD testing.

    Code:
    2017-05-08 15:53:59  Error: The shadow copies of volume C: were aborted because the shadow copy storage could not grow due to a user imposed limit.   
    2017-05-27 16:18:54  Error: The shadow copies of volume C: were aborted because the shadow copy storage could not grow due to a user imposed limit.

    Start with checking your Seagate harddisk:



    Diagnostic Test

     HDD TESTS


    Run HDTune to check health and scan for errors.



    Note   Note
    It may take some time, but look for signs of any errors or failure.

    You can also run a disk or health check using CrystalDiskInfo or chkdsk. Refer to the tutorial for details of how to do this.


    Take Screenshots of it and post it here.

    6) Its very important to have an clean file system. So do steps below:

    Repair Windows Filesystem:

    1. Open an elevated command prompt.
    2. In the elevated command prompt, type these five commands below, and press Enter:

    dism /Online /NoRestart /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
    dism /Online /NoRestart /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
    sfc /scannow
    chkdsk C: /F /R /X
    fsutil dirty set C:

    SFC:
    The SFC command scans the integrity of all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with correct Microsoft versions.
    DISM:
    If a Windows image becomes unserviceable, you can use the Deployment Imaging and Servicing Management (DISM) tool to update the files and correct the problem.
    For example, you would use DISM to fix Windows component store corruption when a sfc /scannow command is unable to repair corrupted or modified system files because the component store (source) is corrupted.
    CHKDSK:
    Checking your drives for errors every once in a while can help fix some performance issues. Drive errors can usually be caused by bad sectors, improper shutdowns, bad software, corruption, physical damage, etc...

    That's a lotta steps, but I will try to start with that MemTest tonight, though from memory I did try to do that once before and apparently my PC actively refuses to boot from USB.

    Boot from USB Drive on Windows 10 PC Windows 10 Installation Upgrade Tutorials

    Note
    If you have fast boot or ultra fast boot enabled in your UEFI firmware settings, then you will need to temporarily disable fast boot or ultra fast boot to be able to boot from a USB.

    How to Enable Fast Boot or Ultra Fast Boot in UEFI Firmware Settings for Windows

    1. Try another USB stick
    2. Try all USB ports (2.0 and 3.0)
    3. Maybe when using UEFI Bios u have temporarly switch to Legacy in BIOS settings
    4. Turn off temporarily fast boot, secure boot, CSM if enabled

    Alrighty. So I ran MemTest for 3 passes and it came up with no errors. I do realise you said 8 and that 3 passes are relatively inconclusive but it did those 3 passes in about 10 hours overnight and I need access to my PC so I can't really let it do nothing for 24 hours+ right now.

    I also got rid of PrecisionX and did a clean install of the Nvidia drivers, as well as installing a newer version of the Realtek driver though I'm not truly sure if it was the right now (nothing seems broken so I assume it was).

    I'll use HDTune next and run those file system commands next, however last night before I ran the MemTest I had another BSOD. I'll attach the minidump for it here if that's alright, unless you need me to run the tool again and upload that instead.
