Hi Chris, Experiencing the Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) can be quite frustrating, but we can work through this together to find a solution. The error codes you provided give some insight into potential causes of these crashes. Here's a breakdown of the issues you mentioned:
- IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0x0000000a) to dxgkrnl.sys: This error often relates to faulty, incompatible, or outdated drivers. The reference to dxgkrnl.sys points to a DirectX Graphics Kernel file, which could be related to your graphics card driver.
- MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (STOP 0x0000008E): This error is related to issues with memory access, which could be tied to faulty RAM modules or improperly configured BIOS settings. Given the symptoms you described, possible culprits could be faulty hardware (like RAM, GPU, or even hard drives) or problematic drivers. Here are steps you can take to troubleshoot:
Steps to Troubleshoot:
- Update Drivers:
- Ensure all your drivers, especially graphics and chipset drivers, are up to date. Visit the manufacturer websites to download the latest versions.
- Run hardware diagnostics to check for any issues with your RAM, GPU, or hard drives.
- Run a memory diagnostic tool like Windows Memory Diagnostic or Memtest86 to check for RAM issues.
- Run an SFC scan to check for and repair corrupted system files that could be causing these errors.
- Ensure that your system is not overheating as it can lead to stability issues.
- If you haven't already, consider updating your motherboard's BIOS to the latest version.
- Ensure that any recently installed software is not causing conflicts that lead to these crashes.
- Event Viewer Analysis:
- Check the Event Viewer for more detailed error logs that can provide additional insight into the crashes. These steps should help pinpoint the underlying cause of the BSoD issues you're facing. If you need detailed instructions on any specific troubleshooting step, feel free to ask. Let's work together to resolve these issues and get your PC running smoothly again!
