📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses a Windows Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) caused by memory management issues, with the original poster reporting two crashes in one day and sharing dump files. A responder analyzes the dumps, suggests that faulty RAM or system corruption might be the cause, and recommends running system file checks and memory tests like Memtest86 for thorough diagnostics. Overall, the conversation emphasizes troubleshooting memory-related problems to resolve the BSOD, with users advised to test hardware and consider removing third-party antivirus software during troubleshooting.

BugCheck 1A, {41790, fffffa8000c3beb0, ffff, 0}
Probably caused by : ntkrnlmp.exe ( nt! ?? ::FNODOBFM::`string'+2f9f4 )
Followup: MachineOwnerboth dump files are Bugcheck 1A which is caused by a severe memory management issue and possibly bad RAM.
System corruption can also be at fault so it's just a case of testing to see which issue it is. The bsod occurred during the use of wmiprvse.exe so os corruption is a possibility.
Firstly try running a system file scan and see if it clears up any corruption. You may need to run it a few times if the corruption won't clear.
Find command prompt in the Start menu, All Programs section, right click on it, choose properties and then run as administrator. Type:
sfc /scannow
Press enter and await results.
I see your running Kaspersky AV suite and would ask you remove this and just use Windows Defender until the bsod culprit has been found.
AV suites are often at the bottom of such issues and we ask them to be removed as a matter of course.
Regard anything old and third party as suspicious (program wise) and if you no longer use it then uninstall it.
If the bsod continues then you'll need to test your RAM. Windows does have a memory testing app but it can miss errors and the best app for the job is Memtest86.
If you open the link below you'll see you can run Memtest86 in two ways. You can either burn it to disk or install it onto a USB drive it's entirely up to you. You'll then need to enter the bios to change the boot order so you can boot from either the Disk or USB stick you have Memtest86 on.
You must test for at least 12 hours unless it becomes obvious there is a problem straight away.

Thread is dated August plus Memtest86 is far better than Windows memory diagnostic which can miss errors.
