Have you crashed since updating RST? I believe the dump results Gardenman showed last were from before the update?

if its not cause, you both have same problem. Your last dump is almost identical to his last crash. I don't normally see the same report results on 2 different machines (and yet its happened twice this week)

same actions: CPU looked for info in ram, didn't find it so it looked on the page file, actioned it and then crashed when it accessed ram next.
So its likely its following driver instructions as all of these steps below (see spoiler) which are in FILO order (First In, Last Out - the bottom actions were first in order of operation, the last ones were PC calling error) are exactly the same in your crash as they are his.

Page fault, This is a normal operation of windows. It happens when CPU has to access ram
Hardfault - This is a normal operation of windows. It happens when CPU has to access Page file
I won't explain it all (as I don't know it all) but all the ST_Store lines are in virtual memory
the bolded line is where I think it all started to fall apart

Drivers can bring a good PC to its knees. Its as simple as having a memory leak, taking memory from the system and not giving it back each time you finished but instead asking for more. Or if they old and are sending instructions that have been changed in the bios since their writing, or just being corrupt and telling CPU to look in the wrong locations in ram for information.


Another thing I noticed, your BIOS isn't reporting correctly,
its not telling the dump what BIOS you have. The same applies for the other guy.

so the question is, which one do you have now
search windows for System Information app
in the right hand column, next to BIOS Version/Date... what is it showing?

Have you crashed since updating RST? I believe the dump results Gardenman showed last were from before the update?

if its not cause, you both have same problem. Your last dump is almost identical to his last crash. I don't normally see the same report results on 2 different machines (and yet its happened twice this week)

same actions: CPU looked for info in ram, didn't find it so it looked on the page file, actioned it and then crashed when it accessed ram next.
So its likely its following driver instructions as all of these steps below (see spoiler) which are in FILO order (First In, Last Out - the bottom actions were first in order of operation, the last ones were PC calling error) are exactly the same in your crash as they are his.

Page fault, This is a normal operation of windows. It happens when CPU has to access ram
Hardfault - This is a normal operation of windows. It happens when CPU has to access Page file
I won't explain it all (as I don't know it all) but all the ST_Store lines are in virtual memory
the bolded line is where I think it all started to fall apart

np, i went to sleep too.. its your thread. You reply when you want :)

You on an even older version of bios to the other guy.
But its also the latest for your laptop so thats not really an answer - https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/support-product/8482?b=1

just thought I would check :)
its weird because I had a older gaming laptop it would get BSOD randomly so Acer gave me this one as replacement and it does BSOD too :/

any BSOD since replacing driver yesterday?

could be it was refurbished and it wasn't fixed from what ever problem was... or was it new?
well no BSOD since i installed SetupRST but I only get Bsod waking from sleep and no other ways and it takes usually 2-3 weeks of sleeping everyday before i get one.

the PC was like new

both of you had same error after 18 days on.

So I should set a calendar for then?

If it keeps happening, I would restart PC occasionally and see if that puts the errors off

try a restart once a week, on same day. It beats crashing.

so save work every day so you don't lose any. Its why shutting down once in a while is a good idea. It also flushes memory.

Problem with BSOD is often you don't know they fixed until they stop happening.

So only time your PC is off is during a windows update? You lucky you don't have a memory leak.

@nooblet0 might be waiting a while as well. He is waiting to see if this is answer as he has same driver version on his PC. Shame as if he updated to it, I would have a pool of 2 Acer trying same fix.

Cheers. I haven't had any issues since updating either; but as far as the issue being resolved is concerned, the jury's still out on that; considering the fact that I had a gap of something like 4 months between my first and second BSOD lol. Here's hoping for the best.

I have helped too many people with BSOD to ever be sure they gone. One month might be enough, depends how often they occured before. I have helped people where it only happened once a month so...

I do wish you luck, but I also hope this isn't a jinx :)
