Memory Leak, Windows 8.1, I think it's TCPIP.SYS

So far, so good. I am glad (and surprised) to find a forum like this with this level of knowledge and support. It's really pretty cool. Thank you for helping.

Memory Leak, Windows 8.1, I think it's TCPIP.SYS

I forced the crash by downloading NotMyFault.exe and running it with a /crash parameter. notmyfault.exe - Sysinternals Forums I do not know how it diagnosed or fixed anything. It crashed. It said it was gathering information. It gathered for maybe 10 seconds (not long), and then, it...

Memory Leak, Windows 8.1, I think it's TCPIP.SYS

Getting your help and doing some additional researching has led me to stuff I never had a clue existed as regards this low-level diagnosis and management. Can you explain what occurred within the reboot to fix an issue such as this? Was a driver fixed? If so, with the myriad driver...

Memory Leak, Windows 8.1, I think it's TCPIP.SYS

Here is an interesting development. I researched and found that there is a utility called NotMyFault.exe which you can use from the command prompt to force a crash. I forced the crash. The Memory.DMP file was NOT updated/replaced. It retained a June 11, 2015 date stamp. However, I went into...

Memory Leak, Windows 8.1, I think it's TCPIP.SYS

I looks as if <ctrl> + <fn> + <pause> on the main keyboard toggles the scroll lock for the onscreen keyboard (osk). With that, I still have not been able to force the BSOD and dump. I confirmed that it is set to "complete dump" and my virtual file size is adequate (min. 10,000; max 12,000)...

Memory Leak, Windows 8.1, I think it's TCPIP.SYS

I have an HP Envy TS 17 laptop. There is no Scroll Lock button. When I access the on-screen keyboard, there is a Scroll Lock button. However, pressing <Right Control> lights up the on-screen key, but as I hold it down and press <Scroll Lock> on the on-screen keyboard, nothing happens. I...

The RAM is consumed as quickly as boot-up. There would not be enough time to run a command prompt utility to get a log.

Will try. How do you edit startup in Win 8.1? I can't find it (the file).

Avira. I did a scan, and no infections.

Memory Leak, Windows 8.1, I think it's TCPIP.SYS

Task Manager shows the vast bulk of my 8 gigs of RAM is being consumed in non-paged pool memory (over 7.1 gigs of it). I ran poolmon.exe, and the tag indicates it is TCPIP.SYS. Here is the log of scfFix: SFCFix version 2.4.5.0 by niemiro.Start time: 2015-07-07 17:04:43.748 Microsoft Windows...
