IntelNit.sys = Intel® Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 so update it if you use it: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26103/Intel-Turbo-Boost-Max-Technology-3-0 (BIOS update might also help this error)

Scarlet Crush. I think this removes it: https://github.com/nefarius/ScpToolkit/wiki/Manual-driver-removal

Updating BIOS might help as well. Instructions are in your motherboard manual or here: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA2011/X99-A_II/E11090_X99-A_II_UM_WEB.pdf on page 3-37
If you update bios, also update Intel Management Engine Interface to version Version 11.0.5.1189 as it likely matches new bios. It is 1st link under Chipset here: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/X99-A-II/HelpDesk_Download/

scpvbus.sys as the who crashed shows is likely cause, they used for PS3 controller drivers. Scarlet Crush. So its your choice, find new drivers or live with errors or stop using PS3 controller.

They are known to cause BSOD.

if you go to C:\WINDOWS\Minidump
copy the contents to a new folder
upload the copies from new folder to a file sharing web site and we have a look to see if anything else might be cause

Hi, I ran the dump files through the debugger and got the following information: https://pste.eu/p/mRZw.html

File: 010819-9156-01.dmp (Jan 8 2019 - 21:38:41)
BugCheck: [DRIVER_VERIFIER_IOMANAGER_VIOLATION (C9)]
*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for ScpVBus.sys
Probably caused by: memory_corruption (Process: System)

File: 010819-11484-01.dmp (Jan 8 2019 - 21:00:44)
BugCheck: [IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (A)]
*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for IntelNit.sys
Probably caused by: memory_corruption (Process: System)
Uptime: 5 Day(s), 0 Hour(s), 25 Min(s), and 31 Sec(s)

Motherboard: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/X99-A-II/HelpDesk_Download/
There are BIOS updates available for your system.
Your version: 1003
Current version: 1902
Wait for additional information before deciding to update or not. Also verify the information before attempting to update. Updating your BIOS can be risky. Never try it when you might lose power (lightning storms, recent power outages, etc).

I can't help you with this. Someone else will post with more information soon. Please wait for more answers. Good luck.

Hey Colif, Thank you again for the response and help.

I managed to install/update my intel Turbo Boost Max as you suggested. I also Updated my mobos BIOS via the internet with the EZ updater on the BIOS interface.

The only thing i couldn't do was, as per your Scarlet Crush GitHub link, find SCP DSx Service in my Services.msc. Nothing shared that name that was listed in my service console. Here is a screenshot of my services window.

At this point should i do another run of WhoCrashed and upload it here? I again sincerely appreciate your time and help.
