[SOLVED] BSOD Every 15-60 minutes narrowed down to network drivers

[aarock1234]

I have tried EVERYTHING. Here are my past 5 mini dumps. I crash 10+ times a day, this is starting to get unbearable. I have tried every driver I could finder, I have tried ethernet, uninstalling drivers, sfc scannow, I have tried chkdsk and I have tried to uninstall all drivers. When I uninstall all drivers and disconnect ethernet my PC stays on no issues. It is 100% something network related. I find if I completely uninstall and restart that I can keep my computer open for nearly an hour connected to ethernet.

[aarock1234]

Update: Updated BIOS and completely physically removed the internet card from my PC.

BSOD still happening, mostly IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER. Ran sfc /scannow and I ran memory diagnostic, still happening.

New dump: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nv9x6--iwXkJPrM7ETI6FszL6W927ECU/view?usp=sharing

 

[aarock1234]

Update: Computer stayed online for 8 hours, crashed after that and is now on a spree of crashes.

unusual error codes
error 1 happened after you removed the network card, I can tell by the lack of broadcom drivers
its almost like a different PC comparing drivers in error 1 to rest of them
error 1 doesn't tell me a lot

tried running sfc/dism since removing card?
right click start button
choose powershell (admin)
type SFC /scannow and press enter

once its completed, copy/paste this command into same window:

Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth
and press enter

SFC fixes system files, second command cleans image files, re run SFC if it failed to fix all files and restart PC

I won't comment on the older ones as many of the drivers are replaced now.

I will do this ASAP. I have a few more dumps that just recently happened. I will clear the old ones out and tomorrow afternoon I will provide the new dumps (I'm sure my PC will crash more tomorrow...) Thanks for all the help so far.

 

[aarock1234]

Ok, so here are the next 5 minidumps from today: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VK0DUCQtwiznRKlIbnGaxLw4m9MOTirc/view?usp=sharing

There were around 10, the crashing is much more frequent than it was yesterday.

ANY help would be immensely appreciated, thank you, I need this computer to work for around 1~ more month until I can build a new rig.

one of the drivers that caused a BSOD on 30 April, before you replaced all the others, is still on PC

Jan 13 2020

iaStorE.sys

Intel SATA Storage Device RAID Controller

Do you use RAID? I think it might have been used for ssd at one stage otherwise.

if you don't use it, remove it
if you do use it, see if there is newer on https://www.intel.com.au/content/www/au/en/support/intel-driver-support-assistant.html

Try running memtest86 on each of your ram sticks, one stick at a time, up to 4 passes. Only error count you want is 0, any higher could be cause of the BSOD. Remove/replace ram sticks with errors. Memtest is created as a bootable USB so that you don’t need windows to run it

No, I do not use RAID. I am gonna uninstall it. Thank you!!!! Hopefully this helps.

Not everyday i see a quad channel ram setup. 8 sticks.

i think part of problem is

Feb 15 2015

e1c65x64.sys

Intel(R) Gigabit Adapter driver

error 1 made me think it was lan
error 2 mentions afd.sys Ancillary function driver for winsock which is a windows lan driver (part of windows)
3 & 4 made me think of lan before I looked at them, based on victims
error 3 mentions afd.sys as well,
error 4 isn't so obvious but its victim is expressvpn, same as error 3.
error 5 mentions http in stack text. hyper text transfer protocol. So internet it hurts

4 out of 5 point at lan drivers.

Now its possible the intel updater I showed last post might update your lan drivers as well.
I can't tell what you have exactly as Asus just call it Intel®, 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller(s)
https://rog.asus.com/motherboards/rog-rampage/rog-rampage-iv-extreme-battlefield-3-model/spec
but if it uses same drivers as mine, it should be at least 2020.

 

[aarock1234]

I am unsure how to uninstall the RAID drivers. I installed the network driver off of intel's site
I have the 82579V Gigabit Ethernet
I cannot install the latest driver as I get the error that No drivers are present?
I installed 23.4 (Previously Released) Date: 11/9/2018
when I should be on 26.2 released in march 2021

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28415/Ethernet-Intel-Network-Adapter-Driver-for-Windows-10

 

[Colif]

I cannot install the latest driver as I get the error that No drivers are present?

No, the error is it can't find your intel adapter, hence it didn't install any drivers. Drivers won't install if they can't detect the hardware they are for.

guess we see if newer drivers are all you need. even though they aren't newest.

 

[Colif]

So it started as a LAN problem, we removed the WIFI and it still looks like a lan problem. I should have asked if you used WIFI or ethernet the first time around.

The intel drivers weren't loaded when you got first errors, so it shouldn't be the same thing. Just makes me wonder.

seems too much of a coincidence.

 

[aarock1234]

im still crashing on the 2018 versions :/ I’ll send a mini dump

I think Colif had to sleep for a day or two. Maybe he'll wake up again soon.

we have bad weather for a few days, I only have 1 PC and its 8 months old, it stays off if there are storms around. Now if I had 8 year old dells I may not care

did you run memtest?

the raid driver is part of Intel rapid Storage Technology so update or remove it.

the last 5 BSOD are more similar to what I normally get. I can't tall what cause might be.

 

[aarock1234]

Colif, I have analyzed my new dump files and they all seem to be related to the "System". I will wait tomorrow for more crashes and I will send the new ones. I use WinDbg.

 

[Colif]

Gardenmans program also uses windbg but outputs the results in a different format.
System is the victim, not cause... I see it in the last 3 errors above. other 2 have THX service & razer as victims
none of them have any interaction with ram or storage so its all CPU activity and no drivers mentioned in stack text.


Okay, hang on, thxservice and the razer service are both parts of Synapse. So I would update it

I went out and replaced my CMOS battery, but I think my motherboard is ignoring it. I am gonna buy a battery for my multimeter and test my CR2032 batteries. But in the meantime, I still have been crashing. The PC boots into Windows without a CMOS and I get similar errors, I think my motherboard is not detecting the CMOS.

 

[aarock1234]

Small note: My PC has NEVER crashed while playing games. When I play Call of Duty: Warzone (G:\ Drive) for 3+hours my pc will stay on, but the moment I close it, my pc crashes within 10 minutes. I have kept the game on for 24 hrs, but the moment I close it, my pc BSOD.

 

[Colif]

all the battery does is saves the settings so if you unplug PC it remembers settings and won't dump you in the bios at startup
its not the actual cmos, that is likely a chip on motherbaord and soldered on - https://www.lifewire.com/what-is-cm...plementary metal,as well as hardware settings.
if it remembers your settings and boots into windows, you have a cmos.
unplugging pc without the battery will mean you need to re enter settings on next startup.

if you get a multi meter, test your PSU while you at it... it might explain why it doesn't like idle

What is PSU make/model? how old is it?
