📎 AI Summary:
This WindowsForum thread centers on a user experiencing repeated Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors, specifically BugCheck 3B, suspected to be caused by faulty drivers or hardware issues. Despite the user not intentionally overclocking, their CPU appears to be running at 4.3GHz, which is higher than the processor's max turbo speed, suggesting possible automatic overclocking or misconfiguration. The troubleshooting advice includes updating the BIOS, installing service packs, removing or updating specific drivers (notably related to USB controllers, graphics, and audio), and verifying hardware stability, though the user is confused about some hardware settings and updates. Overall, the tone is technical and solution-oriented, aiming to identify the root cause of system instability.

Could not read faulting driver name
Probably caused by : win32k.sys ( win32k!SFMLOGICALSURFACE::OwnsSurfaceCleanup+2d )

You still need to update your bios and of course the service pack too...

Hi,
win32.sys can appear if a hardware issue is present like bad RAM. Can you post the actual dump file?

Try running this scan too:

Just follow the advice shown in the webpage above and try a test. I know there's a long one that runs for around 4hrs but it's up to you which one you run. All your doing is seeing if the hardrive passes the tests. If you get a fail on any of them then you know you have a possibly failing drive.

Alright it seems like everytime i download the BIOS update and update it, and it ask me to restart the system it does not remember that i updated the bios it stills says it is on 3202 version from 2012.

Hmm... I guess your using the Asus bios app to update yes? If your not already try right clicking the application and running it as administrator.

Alright.

I have used the Seagate tool and i did S.M.A.R.T check, short driver self test, Short Generic, Long Generic, Advanced Test. With no errors.
