Analysis method: Microsoft WinDbg via BSOD AI Analyzer
Error Code: 0xA
Error Name: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Analysis Summary
The system crashed with bug check 0xA IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL when the kernel tried to access an invalid memory address while acquiring a spinlock during a page fault originating from iCUE.exe.
System Information
- Windows Version: Windows 11 (NT 10.0 kernel) 26100 MP (32 procs) Free x64
- Kernel Build: 26100.9168
- Kernel Image Version: 10.0.26100.9168
- Process: iCUE.exe
- System Uptime: 0 days 16:38:51.768
Probable Cause
The bug check IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0xA) occurred because code running at DISPATCH_LEVEL (IRQL 2) attempted to write to the invalid/non-canonical address 0x0000080000000800. The instruction at nt!ExAcquireSpinLockExclusiveAtDpcLevel+0x19 was executing while the memory manager was resolving a page table page for a user-mode access fault. The active process at the time was iCUE.exe, which indicates the fault originated from Corsair's iCUE software. The failure bucket AV_nt!ExAcquireSpinLockExclusiveAtDpcLevel points to the Windows kernel's spinlock routine, but this pattern is often a symptom of memory corruption, an unstable driver/application, or faulty hardware rather than a standalone bug in ntkrnlmp.exe. No third-party kernel driver appears on the faulting stack, so the trigger appears to be a user-mode access from iCUE.exe that led to a corrupted page-table state.

Analysis method: Microsoft WinDbg via BSOD AI Analyzer
Error Code: 0x50
Error Name: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Analysis Summary
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (0x50) caused by gameflt.sys accessing an invalid memory address while processing a file name information request for Plex Media Server.
System Information
- Windows Version: Windows 11 (NT 10.0 kernel) 26100 MP (32 procs) Free x64
- Kernel Build: 26100.9168
- Kernel Image Version: 10.0.26100.9168
- Process: Plex
- System Uptime: 0 days 1:09:31.107
Probable Cause
The crash occurred when the file system filter driver gameflt.sys called FltGetFileNameInformation, a FltMgr API, to query file name information for a file operation. During this call, the driver dereferenced a non-paged memory address (0xffffffffffffff8b) that is not valid, resulting in a page fault. This indicates a bug or incompatibility in the gameflt.sys driver, possibly triggered by a file access pattern from the Plex Media Server process. The bug check parameters show a read/write operation (parameter 2 = 2) and the faulting instruction at address fffff80159bbe181, which is inside the gameflt.sys module.

Recommended Actions
- Locate the gameflt.sys driver and determine its parent application (common names: Game Filter, Gaming Services, or third-party game optimizer). Update that software to the latest version.
- Uninstall or disable the driver associated with gameflt.sys if the issue persists after updating, as it may be incompatible with your Windows build.
- Run the System File Checker (sfc /scannow) to ensure system files, including Windows filter manager components, are not corrupted.
- Check for Windows Updates and install the latest patches, as they may include fixes for filter driver compatibility.

Analysis method: Microsoft WinDbg via BSOD AI Analyzer
Error Code: 0x7E
Error Name: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
Analysis Summary
A system worker thread performing kernel heap compaction crashed with an illegal instruction exception, causing a SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (0x7E) bugcheck in the Windows kernel.
System Information
- Windows Version: Windows 11 (NT 10.0 kernel) 26100 MP (32 procs) Free x64
- Kernel Build: 26100.9168
- Kernel Image Version: 10.0.26100.9168
- Process: System
- System Uptime: 0 days 5:47:26.783
Probable Cause
The crash occurred in the System process while a worker thread was executing the heap compaction routine (nt!RtlpHpHeapCompact and related functions). The CPU raised a general protection fault due to an illegal instruction (0xC000001D) at the faulting address fffff8069babafc1, which resolves to nt!KiGeneralProtectionFault+1. The stack trace shows the heap manager's Red-Black tree removal and segment compaction code, indicating possible memory corruption or a bug in the kernel heap management logic. No third-party driver is present in the stack, so this could be an internal Windows kernel issue or the result of memory corruption caused by an unidentified driver or faulty RAM.

Analysis method: Microsoft WinDbg via BSOD AI Analyzer
Error Code: 0x50
Error Name: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Analysis Summary
A PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (0x50) occurred in win32kfull.sys while it was processing a window lookup from RTSS.exe.
System Information
- Windows Version: Windows 11 (NT 10.0 kernel) 26100 MP (32 procs) Free x64
- Kernel Build: 26100.9168
- Kernel Image Version: 10.0.26100.9168
- Process: RTSS.exe
- System Uptime: 0 days 6:02:03.225
Probable Cause
The system crashed after roughly 6 hours of uptime when RTSS.exe called the Win32k window-lookup API. While executing win32kfull!_FindWindowEx+0x9c, the kernel attempted to read an invalid nonpaged address (ffffec8b2701ecd8). Bug check parameter 2 is 0, so this was a read operation; the instruction pointer in the bug check is in win32kfull.sys. This pattern usually indicates that a user-mode application (RTSS.exe) passed an invalid window handle/pointer or that the win32k/session structures are corrupted. The failure bucket 'AV
R(null)_win32kfull!_FindWindowEx' confirms the fault is in the win32kfull module and not an obvious hardware failure.

- Run System File Checker and DISM: 'sfc /scannow' and 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth'.
- Update or reinstall MSI Afterburner / RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS), since RTSS.exe was the process that triggered the fault.
- If you use any overlay or performance monitoring software, temporarily disable its on-screen display to see whether the crash stops.
- Run Windows Memory Diagnostic or the hardware diagnostics from your PC manufacturer to rule out RAM/CPU issues, even though the primary evidence points to a software fault.
- If the crashes continue after updates, perform a clean boot to identify conflicting startup programs or services.

File: 082026-14609-01.dmp (extracted from

Analysis method: Microsoft WinDbg via BSOD AI Analyzer
Error Code: 0x1
Error Name: APC_INDEX_MISMATCH
Analysis Summary
The system crashed with APC_INDEX_MISMATCH (0x1) while the kernel was finishing a system call (SysCallNum 42) in nt!KiSystemServiceExitPico, with the crashing process being svchost.exe.
System Information
- Windows Version: Windows 11 (NT 10.0 kernel) 26100 MP (32 procs) Free x64
- Kernel Build: 26100.9168
- Kernel Image Version: 10.0.26100.9168
- Process: svchost.exe
- System Uptime: 0 days 4:49:52.350
Probable Cause
Bug check 0x1 APC_INDEX_MISMATCH is raised when a thread's APC (Asynchronous Procedure Call) state becomes inconsistent during system call exit. The stack trace shows nt!KiSystemServiceExitPico+0x3ba invoking KeBugCheckEx. The failure bucket identifies '0x1_SysCallNum_42_nt!KiSystemServiceExitPico', meaning system call number 42 (0x2A) was being returned from. The first bugcheck parameter 0x00007ff8b3b40bc4 is the address related to the mismatch; parameters 2 and 3 are 0x0 and 0xffff0000, and parameter 4 is 0xffffdd81ee8c74e0. The faulting thread (ffff8183be9430c0) belonged to svchost.exe and was running on processor 19 at IRQL 0. Because the visible stack is entirely in the core kernel image ntkrnlmp.exe and no third-party driver appears in the evidence, this is most likely a Windows kernel/system-call handling bug or corrupted kernel state, not a hardware failure.

Recommended Actions
- Run 'sfc /scannow' and 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' from an elevated Command Prompt to repair possible system file corruption.
- Check Event Viewer for errors around the crash time and determine which service under the crashing svchost.exe process was active, since svchost.exe hosts multiple Windows services.
- Consult Microsoft Support if the problem persists after servicing updates, as the failure bucket points to an internal kernel path (nt!KiSystemServiceExitPico).
