Hi everyone,
Bluescreens are occurring very frequently recently on my PC, often up to 4 BSoDs every day. It often occurs when not under stress. My PC is a custom-built one.

Specifications:
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600X
GPU: Geforce RTX 2060
RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum 2x8GB
MB: MSI B350M Gaming Pro
Storage: SPCC SSD (120GB), Western Digital WD Blue (1TB)
PSU: Corsair GS500 (500W)

Things I have tried:
  • Using driver verifier which identified the problematic driver as nvlddmkm.sys
  • Uninstalling nvlddmkm.sys with DDU and reinstalling it
  • Rolling back the driver to a previous version
  • Running Memtest86 for 4 passes which identified no errors
  • Ran sfc with no errors

My most recent crash dumps can be found here, including the ones caused by Driver Verifier.

If you need any more information please feel free to ask. Thanks in advance!!

Processes that crashed are victims, not cause. All the times Vivaldi crashes might be Nvidia,
Nvidia still crashing, twice on 24th.. crashes 5, 6 & 7 are all Nvidia.

Any new oculus drivers?
any newer VPN software?

POOL_CORRUPTION_IN_FILE_AREA - A driver corrupted pool memory used for holding pages destined for disk.
This was discovered by the memory manager when dereferencing the file.
not a normal error I see, don't think I ever have?

how old is system? I would auto suspect ram seeing odd errors but you checked with memtest already

try running diagnostics on the ssd - https://www.silicon-power.com/web/download-ToolBox

As you stated, you have the latest stable BIOS already installed.

This information can be used by others to help you. Someone else will post with more information. Please wait for additional answers. Good luck.

Yes, there are oculus drivers.
No VPN software though.

I believe that error is caused by Driver Verifier.

I regularly upgrade the computer system. The oldest parts now should be the SSD and HDD, which are ~5 years old.

Ran it with no errors.

Do you mean there is no VPN software on PC or no updates?
Jan 15 2018RvNetMP60.sysRadmin VPN Virtual Adapter driver (Famatech Corp)
is on PC now.

Driver verifer errors normally say that it caused them or would have pointed at a driver, in most cases.

Oh right I forgot about that software I installed a long time ago, sorry.
I just deleted the driver, let's see if bluescreens continue to occur.
