Random BSOD and monitor doesn't turn off

Hello Everyone,

 

The "Blue Screen of Death" is usually caused from a hardware problem.

It shouldn't be too hard to fix.  Just call your repair tech and give him or her the symptoms.

 

Best to You!

@JustTheFacts  Suggest you read regarding posting. 

We do not tell the above quoted to many people.  We solve the issues here.  That is the purpose of the BSOD Forum and submitting Sysnative Reports for Quailed people to reply to them.

I would suggest stick to your Firefox Topic and stay out of other peoples topics till you have a understanding of how things work here.

As well if you are not qualified to answer then do not.  Thanks.

Hi, please disregard Post # 14

This isn't just unhelpful and overly simplistic, it's WRONG! Most BSODs are caused by bad drivers. My father used to tell me that; "if you have nothing useful to say then say nothing".

Of the recent four dumps one has a length of 0 bytes again. The other three suggest that the problem may be caused by a driver that fouls up in-memory structures and then exist. It's not until another thread accesses those structures that we get a BSOD - but that dump doesn't help us identify the bad driver.

This is exactly the situation that Driver Verifier is useful for. Please follow the detailed instructions here to enable Driver Verifier. I suggest you first read through them before actually doing anything.

Note that because Driver Verifier performs additional checks on selected driver there will be a small performance impact, but it's well worth it to try and locate the flaky driver.

Once you have disabled Driver Verfier (after 24-48 hours of running) run the SysnativeBSODCollectionApp again and upload the resulting zip file.

Hi, I have launched Driver Verifier. What should I do if not a single blue screen appears in 48 hours?

Hi, if did not read my post # 16 then do so. Leave him out of the discussion.

As well please do not use the Quote All Box.  Use the Tool Bar Quote if need to draw attention to a particular something.....

Discuses 48hrs after 48 hrs have passed.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand how to leave him out of the discussion. I also don't quite understand how to address a specific person on the forum.

Simply do not quote him or do this @sh1k1 with his name which answers the other part.

You do not need to address a specific person usually at all.  In top right corner there is a Button called follow this Topic, next to that there is a number.  In this case 1.

That is you and nobody else is following this topic.  When post they may or may not get a email stating you have made a post, if use their name they may or may not get a email saying your name was mentioned here.  It depends on what the have set up When you click your name at page top right.

I do not use it or am flooded with emails, as well I do not follow any topics.  I log in and look around, then I click my Name and then Click on My Content.

Everything I need to know about replies and what is going on is there.

Why say leave him out of the topic is that the answer was pathetic and has no place in this forum unless someone with experience says to take it to a shop.

He has 4 posts, we do not know him and the 1st place he posts is in a forum that takes a lot of experience or knowledge.  Has not shown has anything due to His Topic he started re Win7 and Firefox and webmail.

You can mouse over someones name by their picture icon/avatar & hold it there and can find 2 things, Top is find persons posts, the other is send a PM. Or of click can bring up the persons Profile.

Do tend to use Right Click as if you have been typing anything and Left Click will go to the page.  Best to open another tab.

LOL, you also used the Quote All box........ backspace it out of the way/.

Edit : or can do @shik1  that is typing the name vs copy/paste the name.

But if edit a post that info will not be emailed.

If you get BSODs (and we hope you do) then just reboot. After 48 hours disable Driver Verifier and run the SysnativeBSODCollectionApp again, then upload the zip file that reults.

I turned off Driver Verifier after 28 hours of operation, because I need to use a PC, and it is lagging. There has never been a BSOD during this time. But now, for some reason, if I listen to music or watch videos from time to time, the sound seems to be muffled, I thought it was because of the Driver Verifier. But after shutting down and restarting the PC, nothing has changed.

After three times I turned off Driver Verifier and rebooted the PC, the problem went away by itself

There has been no BSOD for three days now. Although after I deleted Malwarebytes, updated Windows, updated BIOS and updated graphics card drivers, there were two more BSODs. After the last BSOD, all I did was rearrange the RAM from 1 and 3 to 2 and 4 slots. There were no blue screens after that. I also noticed that the monitor stopped flashing when the PC was turned off.

Would be best to download your manual.  https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B450M-DS3H-rev-1x/support#support-manual

The ram should have been in slots 2 and 4 to begin with as per Page 9 bottom.

That was probably the issue. Although you need to consult the motherboard manual as advised, most boards like two sticks in slots 2 and 4,

If Driver Verifier ran for 28 hours with no BSODs then it's unlikely to have been a driver problem - that makes it even more likely that the problem was simply that the RAM was in the wrong slots.

I'll let you know if something happens.
