[SOLVED] BSOD - NTOSKRNL.exe

Hey, I keep getting multiple BSOD's daily. Some times it will be shortly after boot, sometimes it will be after a while. But all of them point back to this kernel executable. I've done ddu clean installs of both my gpu, and audio drivers. I've also run all of the suggested command prompts like sfc/scannow and chkdsk multiple times, along with memory diagnostic tests

CPU: Ryzen 3600
Gpu: R9 Nano
Mobo:ASUS ROG Strix B450-I Gaming

These are the most recent crashes from whocrashed and the dump files https://drive.google.com/open?id=1JJ9wUm8LiaOCAYB83qWdrLQwnFKlJsTO


On Thu 4/30/2020 6:28:06 PM your computer crashed or a problem was reported
crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\043020-7828-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x1C2390)
Bugcheck code: 0x3B (0xC0000005, 0xFFFFF80051D269BD, 0xFFFF900C71D16EC0, 0x0)
Error: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
file path: C:\Windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
product: Microsoft® Windows® Operating System
company: Microsoft Corporation
description: NT Kernel & System
Bug check description: This indicates that an exception happened while executing a routine that transitions from non-privileged code to privileged code.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\043020-7718-02.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x1C2390)
Bugcheck code: 0x133 (0x1, 0x1E00, 0xFFFFF8026D227358, 0x0)
Error: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION
file path: C:\Windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
product: Microsoft® Windows® Operating System
company: Microsoft Corporation
description: NT Kernel & System
Bug check description: The DPC watchdog detected a prolonged run time at an IRQL of DISPATCH_LEVEL or above. This could be caused by either a non-responding driver or non-responding hardware. This bug check can also occur because of overheated CPUs (thermal issue).
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

Bug check description: This indicates that Microsoft Windows or a kernel-mode driver accessed paged memory at DISPATCH_LEVEL or above. This is a software bug.
This bug check belongs to the crash dump test that you have performed with WhoCrashed or other software. It means that a crash dump file was properly written out.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.
 
Solution
WdFilter.sys is part of MIcrosoft malware software
amd_xata.sys is AMD storage filter system driver (think this is part of windows)

noiseblocker might be? https://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/Other-AUDIO-Tools/Noise-Blocker.shtml

top crash could be lan drivers, might be newer intel ones by now? yours from 2019.

one crash appears to have happened in raid drivers... are you running RAIDxpert 2? https://www.asus.com/au/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-B450-I-GAMING/HelpDesk_Download/

I think 3rd error was a Driver Power State Failure

good thinking about memtest

Comment: The GPU tweaking driver "iomap64.sys" was found on your system. (AI Suite or GPU Tweak 2)

You mentioned memory diagnostics, have you run memtest86 for a full 4 passes?

The first (oldest) dump had a mysterious driver running named "noiseblocker_353e0825.sys". If you know what this is, please let us know. If needed, find the file then right click on it and choose Properties to get more info.

Possible Motherboard page: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-B450-I-GAMING/
You have the latest BIOS already installed, version 3004.

This information can be used by others to help you. I can't help you with this. Someone else will post with more information. Please wait for additional answers. Good luck.
