Recent multiple BSOD's (listed), only works after restore or reset

ToiletNinja · 21 Sep 2017

Hello,

I've recently begun experiencing BSOD's when I start up my computer for the first time every day. My machine goes into a boot loop every time and several BSOD errors show up. I keep a log in an excel file and I've attached a pic;

Attachment 154319

This is up to date and has happened today. I can only seem to boot far enough to use the computer if I do a restore or a reset. I don't want to do a reset every time so I choose restore, and now I've resorted to creating a restore point every night before shutting down, but manual restore points seem to have a 50/50 shot of succeeding. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated! I've attached the zip per the instructions here.

As these crashes are happening during the boot process there are no crash dump files being created so we can't provide any debugging for you. It is probably due to bad driver (3rd party, not Microsoft) and so I would recommend that you try a clean boot process and if a clean boot is troublefree you can then investigate which of your non-Microsoft startup services or apps might be causing the problem.

See this tutorial and do come back to us if you have any questions.

Also,

Try to boot your computer with the least amount of peripherals possible. So disconnect all USB devices other than mouse and keyboard.
So printers, USB-sticks, ...

Booted with only the mouse and keyboard attached. Got a KERNEL SECURITY CHECK FAILURE and a SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION message and the 3rd reboot got back into windows.

After I got back into windows from the above boot troublesehoot, completed the clean boot process as per the tutorial, then rebooted and got two consecutive IO1 INITIALIZATION FAILED messages before it booted into automatic repair and from then I restored to a point I had from yesterday.

After I got back into windows from the above boot troublesehoot, completed the clean boot process as per the tutorial, then rebooted and got two consecutive IO1 INITIALIZATION FAILED messages before it booted into automatic repair and from then I restored to a point I had from yesterday.

This sounds like you only got so far with the clean boot process. Did it boot successfully with all 3rd party drivers disabled? If so then that is significant. When you rebooted had you added back any startup services as described in the part 2 of the clean boot process? Completing part 2 and part 3 of the clean boot process is what identifies the services or drivers causing the boot failure.

If it failed to boot with the clean boot process this would suggest you might have a hardware problem. You now need to see if you can boot into safe mode. We need to know if it will run in safe mode for a period of say 1 hour to check if the hardware is OK.

The initialization error is indicating that something got corrupted causing the initialization of the I/O to fail. Hopefully the repair has fixed that.

Hello, sorry it took so long to respond, been busy. I created a backup system image and did a clean install thinking it would work, and today I get more errors (question 6). Does this increase the possibility of a hardware issue? Hopefully it's a failing SSD because I have a spare.

I've answered zbook's post below.

1) Are your files backed up?
a. Yes.

2) Had you made an image of the drive?
a. Yes.

3) How old is the computer?
a. Custom built, most components about 6-7 years old. I still use an Ivy Bridge i5-3570K.

4) Are all of the components the same age or have some components been replaced?
a. The power supply has been replaced as I though the previous one died, but didn’t, there’s a whole story there. The graphics card has been updated twice I believe. Currently an EVGA 970.

5) Had you ran any tests on the drive: SMART, short or long generic. health, benchmark, or error scan?
a. Yes, I launched into UBCD & ran parted magic. I know SSD’s don’t read very well with SMART, but I did complete the available short test an all drives, and all passed.

6) If you needed to would you be able to perform a clean install (delete partitions, format drive, make unallocated drive, install windows 10 version 1703 using a Windows 10 ISO)?
a. Actually I just did this last night, 10/2, and I today I still got the following errors;

PFN_LIST_CORRUPT

BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO

0xc000021a (several times)

If this isn’t fixed I’m sure I’ll get more tomorrow.

7) Can you open file explorer?
a. Yes, it opens.

8) Can you reliably open windows advanced troubleshooting menu?
a. Yes, unfortunately it opens each time I start up the machine for the day after passing 5 failed boots, each one producing a bluescreen.

9) What was the result for each of these:
a) startup repair
Couldn’t repair your PC.
b) reset with save files
I’ve tried this before posting here & it didn’t work.
c) reset with remove files
AKA clean install, see question 6.
d) startup options with safe mode with command prompt
e) command prompt
It opens, I’m not sure the result we want here. I’ve done sfc /scannow, and chkdsk. There is one drive that shows 7 errors, and that’s the one that can’t be locked, which I assume is the boot drive.
9) Had you tried a registry repair?
a. Not sure what that is, most say there’s no such thing and registry cleaners do more harm than good.

10) Had you tried using a bootable Windows 10 ISO?
a. And doing what? I’ve already done a clean install as per question 6.

11) Update the system specs in "My Computer"
a. Updated systems specs.

12) Make sure that there is no over clocking while troubleshooting.
a. I’ve never overclocked.

Sometimes there are problems in the bios that produce bsod.
The bios in your computer: BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc. P2.90, 7/11/2013
13) Please check to see if this is the most up to date version.
a. Yes, according to the ASRock website, 2.90 is the latest version.

14) To ensure that there are no improper bios settings please reset the bios.
a. I’ll get around to that and respond later.

15) Find a flash drive that you can format & create a bootable Windows 10 ISO:
a. I’ve already made one of these while doing the clean install, see question 6.

Quick edit; forgot to attach newest crash dump.

After the clean install what source (s) did you use for drivers?

The event log displayed problems with drive corruption.
These are the same problems in the event viewer before the clean install.

If you can boot to the desktop please open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:
1) sfc /scannow
2) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
3) When these have completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread
4) chkdsk /x /f /r
(This may take many hours to run so plan to run overnight)

C:\Windows\system32>chkdsk /x /f /r
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

Type Y

If you cannot reboot to run chkdsk /x /f /r then run chkdsk /scan

Using safe mode if necessary run HD Tune:

to check the health,
scan for errors, no quick scan but full scan
run a benchmark.

It may take some time, but please take the time you need to perform it properly.
When above is done please make screenshots of the following

After the clean install what source (s) did you use for drivers?
The only drivers I installed myself was video drivers, nvidia's geforce experience and then a driver update.

If you can boot to the desktop please open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:
1) sfc /scannow
I've done this several times with no errors.

Code:

This process will take some time.Beginning verification phase of system scan.Verification 100% complete.Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.PS C:\Windows\system32>

2) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

I've attached the log too.

4) chkdsk /x /f /r
This ran fine and completed successfully, again, I've done this several times in my troubleshooting progress so far.

It may take some time, but please take the time you need to perform it properly.
