Hello

Firstly this is first time i'm posting any kind of help request to any forums, bc its just impossible to use my PC anymore. So if anyone of you can please take a look.

I have been having BSODs since I updated my PC.
Previously windows was not genuine ig but still used to get once or twice now and then.
Recently I decided to put an end to this, I have installed windows from Microsoft Media tool, and used those OEM provided to activate the same.
But now I am keep getting random BSODs, just no limit every minute or two, I have updated all drivers and windows as I read it mainly bc of that. After a point windows not getting update getting some error maybe bc of getting interruption from BSOD shutdown. Whenever I try to retry the update windows get BSOD. See attached images

Some BSODs recent mentioned below, while I'm writing this:
1. Kernel Thread Priority Floor Violation
2 reference by pointer
3. unexpected kernel mode trap
4. IRQL not less or equal

Hello,
I read it and tried too, but the Problem is I can't even install the software. It get interrupted in mid everytime bc of BSOD.

Is there a way to kee it stable just for a while.
And I installed sysinfo software only to get detail of my PC and uninstalled the software after getting all details.

Not really, I don't know what the exact issue is but this seems to be hardware related. Do you have access to another system where you could download MemTest86 and then transfer to a bootable USB?

This happened before too, almost a year ago. Then i took to shop where this system was assembled. They changed Ram to check, PSU but nothing worked still kept getting BSODs.

Then they installed windows (not genuine) it worked fine for 2-3 months and after it got autoupdate. It started again getting random BSOD. Rest I told in first thread.

I wanted to know if its Hardware issue how it kept working fine when the service guy reinstalled the window(it was not even genuine). The moment I updated it using mediatool (activating through OEM key) starts getting BSODs. Is it still possible some hardware issue?

Cause I'm not sure about the motherboard. As in past 1 year my HDD got corrupted twice. If this meant anything?

I made Bootable USB from another system, and memtest is running, some images attached. I'll share files once the final test done but taking too long.

Is this the same HDD? Could you please clarify what you mean by corrupted? Did some files get corrupted or did the disk fail a HDD test?

The moment I updated it using mediatool (activating through OEM key) starts getting BSODs.
Simply activating Windows should not cause any problems. However, where is this OEM key from? Unless you've made significant changes to your hardware - notably the motherboard - then Windows should reactivate itself.
 
I tried to reply but kept getting BSODs.

Currently its running on SSD, previously I had 1TB HDD which got corrupted, stopped even showing in disk management. I replaced it then it got damaged again. So I'm not sure is the HDD was faulty or the motherboard was causing it.
Rn system running on just SSD. I tried chkdsk and memtest86 ran successfully, attached results too.

I checked all hardware driver, everything is up-to-date. Only thing left to update was BIOS, which I did yesterday, but still getting BSODs.

Windows is not up to date, whenever i try that it get interrupted because of BSOD.
Anything else that I can try. Link for recent dumpfiles, please take a look

Since your original hard disk got corrupted twice with the same motherboard, then it would suggest there is problems with the connection or the motherboard itself. Is the SSD NVMe or SATA based?

GSmartControl
Follow the instructions below to check your SMART status with GSmartControl:
  • Download the portable version of GSmartControl and save it on your Desktop;
  • Extract the zip file to your Desktop. Open the folder gsmartcontrol-1.1.3-win64 which should be located on your Desktop and double-click gsmartcontrol.exe to launch the program.
  • Identify your drive in the list (if recognized by the tool), and hover your mouse over it.
  • You should see something called: SMART status. It will either read: Enabled, in which case you should do the following:
  • Double-click on it to bring up its window (usually you'll find your drive by its size or its brand name);
  • Go to the Self-Tests tab, then select Extended Self-test in the Test type drop-down list and click on Execute (this test can take a few hours to complete);
  • Once the test is over, the results will be displayed at the bottom of the window. Please copy and paste these results in your next reply or take a screenshot;
  • Also, go in the Attributes tab and if you have any entries highlighted in red or pink, take a screenshot of the GSmartControl window and attach it in your next reply;
  • Please note: If the SMART Status reads: Unsupported, stop and let me know.

Its sata ssd.
This PC keep getting BSODs and I don't have access to another system. I'll post results of Gsmart control as soon as I test it.

Thank you so much for your help so far.
 
It may worthwhile using another SATA port on the motherboard if possible and then using another cable if you have one spare.

Okay, first I'll try different port then different cable. If nothing could I'll go to some local store to try different motherboard.

Still couldn't get Gsmartcontrol to run on PC. Don't have access to another system yet.
 
Thanks, your latest dump files are quite sporadic and the latest one seems to be partially corrupt. Let's see what happens with using a different port and cable.
 
I used different SATA cable at different ports Port 0(was running), and I changed to port 1 and port 2. But still getting BSODs.


One more thing I want to mention is that Google Chrome pages get an error saying "oh snap", youtube most of the time.
Also, the Windows desktop screen refreshes automatically.

I took PC to local store, they tried to reinstall windows which didn't work either according to them its because of SSD. They suggested to get replaced the SSD as its in warranty. And try install windows again.

That doesn't make any sense - it was more a matter of they didn't know what the problem was and couldn't fix it.

That may be a worthwhile suggestion, however, I feel giving Driver Verifier a go at least would be the better option.

I have given the sad for replacement anyways if it works, will get back in 2-3 days. I will post the update as soon as I get it back.
