As mentioned above, my computer start having multiple BSOD per day for a few weeks. Even I do a clean installation of windows 10 few times, the problem still exists.
I could not complete the update of kb4601319 and kb4601382. they always fail. Besides, my browser(chrome and edge) keeps crashing. microsoft office app like words and excel also will lead to bsod. Sometimes when watching youtube also lead to bsod. It is very annoying.
I tried sfc /scannow, sometimes it is successful sometimes it is not. DISM also. Memtest86 shows no error.

BlueScreenView shows that the crash address is all ntoskrnl.exe+3f5210.

Hope could help me solve these problems. No budget to buy a new laptop.

Any information needed, please guide me.

error 4 might be hdd activity
error 3 & 5 are similar. Not sure whats happening though.
more mention of ntfs than i normally see
ntfs - new tech file system, its the file system windows has used for 20 years.
other possible clues, I see one file all the time so its hard to tell if it means anything.

can you run windirstat on the hdd for me?
i normally go to their home page but its currently offline - https://sourceforge.net/projects/windirstat/
it shows what files make up largest space on drive, I am more curious if any system files on it

Hello, sorry for the late reply. As I was quite busy these few days, but I still monitoring my computer.

Last week, I manage to change it to AHCI mode, and my HDD back to HDD. The first night, even the clean installation failed. 😢 Almost thought my laptop is dead. Luckily, second day it succeeded, and even all those Windows Update are installed successfully.

However, the BSOD still happening, but in a weird pattern, sometimes it is quite often, sometimes it is not. But the crashing of browser like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge still happening very often, And mostly, the BSOD happened when I was using Google Chrome. This is so weird, I even played DeadbyDaylight, a 46++ GB game, and still working damn fine and smooth. And a web browser killed my computer. And damn, it is so annoying the browser keep crashing when I am reading email, like need to restart computer 2-3 times to read a single email. OMG.

I have attached all those BSOD for a few days. I been seeing SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION and SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED more frequent now. Besides, although I did not remove the HDD, I also did not format it so it is now remaining unformatted and not shown in My PC. Nothing is stored on it.
So, could it be my SSD problem?

well, only one of those looks like anything to do with storage. Other 5 have no mention of page faults which means no interaction with the page file at all.

strange you say chrome is cause as its not victim in any of the crashes. its all parts of windows. Some of it looks like registry actions. If you hadn't run memtest I would suggest it.

now it all being browser makes me think its LAN still. You probably have newest WIFI drivers

Ok, will run memtest again tonight.

I use the intel driver update tool, all is updated. I double check again.

Hi, I have tried driver verifier, and have AcpiVpc.sys causing BSOD immediately after restarting Windows. 5-6 times. I checked this post https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-Yoga-Series-Notebooks/Yoga-S740-BSOD/m-p/5028109
So, I unintalled AcpiVpc.sys, now still doing driver verifier, but even very laggy but no BSOD, will keep it running for the night.

those are all before you removed the Lenovo program, glad we ran Driver verifer or we would never have guessed it.
Hi, I have test memtest, it shows all pass without any error. I have run driver verifier for 12 hrs, no BSOD happens. However, BSOD still happening outside driver verifier 😢

Here is the latest minidump.

Could it be my motherboard, graphic card, processor error?
Otherwise, why clean installation could not fix system error. Feeling desperate.

turn off verifer. If you get bsod when its not running, and not when it is, we have to think its not software.

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz 2.80GHz
RAM: 2 x SK Hynix 8GB
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 with Max-Q Design 6GB
Windows 10 Home 20H2 64-bit OS, x64-based processor
OS build 19042.631
Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.31.0
Lenovo Legion Y520; Model: 80YY;
BIOS: UEFI; LENOVO 5XCN26WW,20 DEC 2018

so it shouldn't be the HDD
since its a laptop I don't know how to test some things. like the power supply. And gpu is built onto motherboard as well.
passes memtest

CPU - https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/19792/Intel-Processor-Diagnostic-Tool

only tests I have for GPU are benchmarks, you just run and see if its crashes. I don't need the test results
Don't run both at once -
https://geeks3d.com/furmark/
https://benchmark.unigine.com/heaven

you might need to get it looked at by a repair shop.

CPU test passed. no crash when running GPU stress test.

I know the system file is corrupted since sfcscan and dism failed. But even clean installation also can't fix.

Now no budget to go computer repair store 😢

SFC and DISM aren't always reliable. We've seen other people have SFC errors right after a fresh install. Multiple times. So you can't rely upon it. Your files may be fine even when it's showing errors.

If it's a clean install and still crashing then 1 of 2 things are going on. Either the same faulty driver or drivers were installed when the clean install was done, or the more likely culprit, is faulty hardware.

I can't nail it down.

can you run this for me, it will create a zip file, if you can upload, it might show me something. https://www.sysnative.com/forums/pages/bsodcollectionapp/

as I am running out of Ideas. You might want to make a post on here and read their posting instructions - https://www.tenforums.com/bsod-crashes-debugging/ - not giving up but they might figure out something I am missing. Can link to this if you want. I can't help you in that thread as they prefer to only have the person asking the question in those threads.
