Windows 10 Crashes and Hardware Reserved Memory

[TheMultiRugga]

So I have 12 gigs of ram and 4 gigs of it is getting hardware reserved, and then I'm getting tonnes of crashes. Here is the crash reports from a recent crash.


On Thu 3/03/2016 6:26:10 PM GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\Windows\memory.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: Unknown (0xFFFFF6810232A710)
Bugcheck code: 0x1A (0x41201, 0xFFFFF6810232A710, 0xAD50000113D33867, 0xFFFFE00128769AE0)
Error: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
Bug check description: This indicates that a severe memory management error occurred.
This might be a case of memory corruption. More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules.
A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error.
Google query: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT



On Sun 20/12/2015 9:56:15 PM GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\122115-8375-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: ntkrnlmp.exe (nt!KeBugCheckEx+0x0)
Bugcheck code: 0x4E (0x2, 0x111DFD, 0x33FFFF, 0x1)
Error: PFN_LIST_CORRUPT
Bug check description: This indicates that the page frame number (PFN) list is corrupted.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem. This might be a case of memory corruption. More often memory corruption happens because of software errors in buggy drivers, not because of faulty RAM modules.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.



On Sun 20/12/2015 2:06:54 AM GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\122015-8000-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: nvlddmkm.sys (nvlddmkm+0x3F5A13)
Bugcheck code: 0x1E (0xFFFFFFFFC0000005, 0xFFFFF80125375A13, 0x0, 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF)
Error: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
file path: C:\Windows\system32\drivers\nvlddmkm.sys
product: NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 364.51
company: NVIDIA Corporation
description: NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 364.51
Bug check description: This indicates that a kernel-mode program generated an exception which the error handler did not catch.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: nvlddmkm.sys (NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 364.51 , NVIDIA Corporation).

12 GBs is an odd number of ram installed, is it a laptop? More details about your hardware could help. Although, from a basic review of the errors you are getting i could say that it is faulty drivers and/or GPU bad overclocking, power issues of the GPU.

Can be any number of things from overheating (common problem), low power output from PSU, bad memory mix you installed, etc.
Does this crash when in Safe mode? Do these crashes happen when playing games? Does it crash just sitting there after "a few minutes"

The crash logs don't tell us specifically HOW the crash happens, just that they do and what was involved, there is many more pieces as you have different parts crashing there.

IF your system is stable enough as it "just sits there" then I would first do my monthly checks (see below) and report back on the thread (as I suggest at the end of it) the results of each. Many times underlying things are happening you can't "see" causing it, just what they 'screw up' or break, which can be misleading. Please follow the steps to make sure we have a properly MAINTAINED system, that won't mislead us as we help you.

Did you install all Windows Updates? Including OPTIONAL except BING? Check them and repeat till ALL are installed.

Download and run Slim Drivers (http://www.driverupdate.net/downloads/SlimDrivers-setup...), or try Driver Booster (http://www.iobit.com/en/recommend/sd.php?name=driver_bo...) install all the latest updates but you don't need to reboot until you do the last update

Go to www.filehippo.com, download Malwarebytes, go to CUSTOM Scan and set it to do a full system scan (by DEFAULT IT DOESN"T DO THAT, and AntiVirus doesn't pick up alot of malware) - this resolved almost ALL other similiar posts to date as most had Malware the AV didn't pick up.

Remove whatever AV your using and download AVIRA, AVG, Comodo or Panda go to CUSTOM Scan and set it to do a full system scan (by DEFAULT IT DOESN"T DO THAT) - this repeatedly has resolved alot of people issue relying on MS Essentials.

Repeat the AV/Malware scans till the system comes up clean.

Download and run SPECCY, highlight, then copy, and paste here the first tab to show your idle temps

Download AUTORUNS and turn off anything NOT critical on startup, so you don't need to run JAVAScheduler to check for Java updates everytime you start your computer for example. BE CAREFUL AND KNOW WHAT YOUR TURNING OFF BEFORE YOU DO IT.

Open Computer, Can Air dust out the bunnies and use paint brush on the vents, coolers, fans, etc.

Go through and provide a response on each point, don't SKIP IT because "I ALREADY DID IT" , just try doing it again as of THIS post so we know NOW what is happening as compared to BEFORE you posted.

Having just rebuilt myself a new computer and investing in a GTX 970 (Zotac) I will tell you I had a 500W as well, and while both your PSU and mine were 'in spec' it didn't cut it, even when I unplugged all my drives out. I swapped in a 700W and not a problem since. I have come across other questions like yours of people with the 970 and trying to be near the 500W mark, and all them had issues till they too swapped out with at least a 675W or better. Given your multiple hardware, and as I suggested may be one KEY issue, but may not be THE ONLY, I would try the system instead with a beefier PSU than you have now to start with. One test is unplug all the other drives and the 3rd memory stick your using and see if it stays stable or not.. if it does it is power demands. You can plug one device in at a time and try to 'break it' by doing the same things that caused the memory dumps up there, and you can see if you add to much 'stuff' the PSU (like mine and many others) fails due to not enough output power.

Sorry lol I didn't really understand that. Umm I have 6 dimms of ram

Sorry could you please just go into a bit more detail about what you're wanting me to do, sorry. And that first link didn't work.

Okay reels back.

First it isn't normal to have 6 slots of RAM, the common design is 2 or 4 these days, unless it is a server.

Second your video card is a NVidia GTX 970 produced by Gigabyte. The demands for POWER (PSU is Power Supply Unit) is very high, the "minimum" Wattage output (W) of a PSU for a 970 is 500W. With the bolded extra hardware you have in your system, like My system I have now, the demand for POWER is higher than 550W you have built in. Even if it was say using 558W that is more than enough to cause issues as your having as well.

Lastly I was relating your situation to both my personal experience AND several other POSTS like yours here, of people like YOU and ME whom have the 970 having issues AND were (like you and me) trying to get PSUs near the 500W minimum, and repeatedly resolved the 'problems' I had, they had, and I am suggesting you have, by replacing it with a more powerful PSU to meet ALL the bolded items you have inside the case (I am suggesting 675W or higher).

Does that help make it easy to understand.

Yep.

I know it ain't normal to have 6 slots of ram now days. The original PC I bought which included the CPU and mobo I have today. It was made in 2009, it is a first gen i7 so yeah.

But what you are basically saying is get a new PSU?

And what about the ohther stuff you said to do in the original post?
