So we have our 0x24 bugcheck.

Code:
[B]NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM (24)
    If you see NtfsExceptionFilter on the stack then the 2nd and 3rd
    parameters are the exception record and context record. Do a .cxr
    on the 3rd parameter and then kb to obtain a more informative stack
    trace.[/B]
Arguments:
Arg1: 00000000001904fb
Arg2: fffff88009e0d078
Arg3: [COLOR="#008000"]fffff88009e0c8d0[/COLOR]
Arg4: fffff80003e12aa9

So lets run the command on the 3rd parameter.

Code:
2: kd> [COLOR="#008000"].cxr 0xfffff88009e0c8d0;r[/COLOR]
[COLOR="#FF0000"]rax=0000000000000000[/COLOR] rbx=0000000000000003 rcx=fffffa800547e5f0

[COLOR="#800080"]r11=fffff8a00baf54b0[/COLOR] r12=fffffa800547e3c0 r13=0000000000000000
r14=0000000000000006 r15=0000000000000001
iopl=0         nv up ei pl zr na po nc
cs=0010  ss=0018  ds=002b  es=002b  fs=0053  gs=002b             efl=00010246
nt!ExDeferredFreePool+0x1ed:
fffff800`03e12aa9 4c3918          [COLOR="#800080"]cmp     qword ptr[/COLOR] [[COLOR="#FF0000"]rax[/COLOR]],[COLOR="#008000"]r11[/COLOR] ds:002b:[COLOR="#FF0000"]00000000`00000000[/COLOR]=????????????????

So we have our read instruction performing an illegal.
The instruction was a cmp which is to compare the contents of the r11 register to the address which a pointer is pointing to which is stored in rax. The address is null meaning something has used a null pointer.

So lets look at the callstack.

Code:
fffff880`09e0d2b0 fffff800`03e114f1 : fffff8a0`004e0000 fffff8a0`2529f4d0 fffff8a0`1dbd7348 fffff8a0`1dbd7348 : [COLOR="#FF0000"]nt!ExDeferredFreePool+0x1ed[/COLOR]

We have AsDsm calling read I/O operations and removing certain allocations, then it tries to free a pool of memory which is null as we saw with the null pointer and hence our bugcheck.

AsDsm is the ASUS Data Security Manager driver, this is bloatware which should be removed.

Code:
2: kd> [COLOR="#008000"]lmvm AsDsm[/COLOR]
start             end                 module name
fffff880`01384000 fffff880`01391000   AsDsm    T (no symbols)

It's outdated by over 5 years which is why I'm not surprised your system is crashing.




In your other dump file the situation is very similar.

Code:
0: kd> .cxr 0xfffff8800483eb00;r

So we tried to copy data from an address calculated by adding the value in rcx + 58 to the rcx register, so why is this a failing operation?

Code:
0: kd> [COLOR="#008000"]!pte 01ca0432200be982[/COLOR]

Unable to get PXE FFFFF6FB7DBED040
[COLOR="#FF0000"]WARNING: noncanonical VA, accesses will fault ![/COLOR]

Here's our answer, accessing the rcx register is not allowed, if it is accessed then the system will generate an access violation.

It's the same solution as above as it's using bad instruction pointers.
 
so.. what should i do?
the only thing i managed to understand is that i must uninstall "AsDsm" only, right?
 
Thanks for the help Patrick, yes all ASUS bloatware should be removed. This includes any / all of these programs you don't use.

Code:
[B][COLOR="#FF0000"]Start Menu\Programs\ASUS
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS\ASUS AP Bank
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Utility
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Utility\ASUS Data Security Manager
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Utility\ASUS Live Update
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Utility\ASUS Splendid Utility
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Utility\Net4Switch
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Utility\SmartLogon
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Video Magic
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Video Magic\MediaShow Espresso
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Video Magic\PowerDirector
Start Menu\Programs\ASUS Video Magic\PowerDVD 9[/COLOR][/B]
 
Done :)

Is there anything else to uninstall?
and is it safe now to re-run panda cloud cleaner?
 
Indeed it is! :thumbsup2:
i didn't get BSOD!! :D
you guys are genius! :)
i would have never thought that an ASUS program would cause such problem :/

btw, did you notice anything else suspicious? or bad? (just asking)
because my laptop takes long to get to desktop :/
like 3 or 4 mins
 
Can you run the bsod collection log again so I can check what's being loaded on startup?

EDIT: Patrick beat me to it by 1 minute!
 
New "BSOD_Windows7_Vista_v2.64_jcgriff2_.exe" log is attached.
View attachment new log.zip

but i received the following error while running:

That's perfect, thanks.

Startup:

1.
You have ESET, McAfee, Malwarebytes, and Spybot all on startup (and installed in general). Pick 1 antivirus (either ESET or McAfee - I'd kick McAfee to the curb), and then remove Spybot. It's really unnecessary, and Malwarebytes will do the job.

2. Uncheck whatever that is regarding FileHippo.

3. Uncheck Internet Downloader.

4. Uncheck Snagit.

You need none of these to execute on startup, as they can just be launched later when you actually need them.

5. As opposed to manually unchecking all of the Asus garbage such as ATKMedia (utility that opens Windows Media Center when the multimedia hotkeys are pressed), uninstall the entire ATK package you have in Control Panel.

Services:

1. Uncheck nVidia Streaming Service.

-- The rest of the stuff there regarding McAfee, Spybot, etc, will disappear when you uninstall them as I recommended above.



Slow startup can also be linked to your Windows having a lot of temp, cache, etc. I'd recommend running CCleaner (DO NOT USE THE REGISTRY CLEANER) - https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard

Patrick
 
Hi Patrick ^_^,

In this one, I would suggest against uninstalling the ATK Utility. This is because, I asked a guy to update the utility so he asked the ASUS Support and they suggested him not to remove the ATK Utility but to upgrade it. The reason given by them was that it was necessary for the proper functioning of the (FN key, backlit keyboards and some important other things).

Sadly, I do not remember the post where the guy posted this. :(
 
It's possible, yes. I believe ATK Utility may come with ASACPI as well, so that may also be why it's needed. I've never personally tested it so I cannot be sure.

The first article on Google regarding the Utility :- What Is ATK Hotkey Utility? | eHow

I will try to find more info if it comes with the ASACPI or not as I do not own an ASUS device. Let me check if any friend has it ;)
 
hey there, sadly i was late :/
i have already removed it..
is it just for FN keys?
as i don't use them anyway :P
 
It's fine, we can always reinstall it if it becomes an obvious problem. I think you're okay without it, to be honest.

Regards,

Patrick
