Windows 10 Frequent Stopcode after BIOS update

[Hexacool]

Hello everyone,

I have been getting frequent BSOD's after upgrading my bios. I thought that it might have been the ram and the disk, checked both, no errors. The BSOD's I am getting are:

K_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

PFN_LIST_CORRUPT

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

and another one about trying to write to read only ram (don't remember the specific name)

What is going on here? My other drivers are up to date. Did I kill the Mobo with the bios update?

Thanks.

Scarlet Crush (Playstation controller drivers) can cause BSOD
CMUSBDAC can be source of errors if its used for Blue Snowball microphones (Drivers for C _ Media USB DAC)
MSI Gaming app drivers are old (2014)
Razer drivers are old but they may not have newer in Synapse yet

driver verifer blamed Windows so its not seeing the cause of previous errors.

update your realtek NIC drivers - http://www.realtek.com.tw/Downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&Langid=1&Level=5&PFid=5&PNid=13

I am using a Blue Snowball microphone. All I have for razer is cortex, and haven't used that in a million years (should probably uninstall at this point) I have tried to uninstall MSI gaming app for a while now from control panel but for some reason it just won't install from control panel.

Thanks for the help, I'm currently in the process of updating the realtek drivers

UPDATE:
All was fine and dandy with the realtek drivers update. Until my computer BSOD'd immediately after. Should I try flashing the BIOS back or reflash it? Thinking about maybe taking my pc in to a local computer shop to see if they can fix and diagnose it.
Thanks.

share the dump files for last crash here and we see if it tells us anything new.

Alright, here is a link to maybe six or seven crashes. I also had my computer crash once today just from the desktop- it just immediately restarted booting into windows- no restart message, no bsod, nothing.

I also may have mentioned this earlier, but some of the bsods don't restart my computer- I have to manually restart it myself ( I let one sit for 24hours and still no luck.)

Gardenman will look at the dumps when he can, he has other things he needs to do 1st. Hopefully in next 24 hours.

I ran the dump files through the debugger and got the following information: https://pste.eu/p/89Fy.html

You have the latest BIOS installed.

I can't help you with this. Wait for additional replies. Good luck.

4 of the BSOD caused by Norton Security (Or at least, thats what crashed) I wouldn't have expected the LAN driver upgrade to cause BSOD, but its possible it is, Try removing norton until we find the cause. Update or remove malwarebytes as well.

Chrome crashing also makes me think of LAN drivers,

Alright, I think something might be wrong with the motherboard.

I did a fresh install of Windows on my brand new ssd that I bought. Was working great. Then I got a BSOD. After driver install.
Probably going to have to RMA my motherboard 🙁

any error code with the last bsod .

Most of them are IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL or MEMORY_MANAGEMENT. Memtestx86 says my RAM is fine.

With my fresh windows install, Norton hasn't been installed yet. Neither has Malwarebytes.

I reset the CMOS battery again and it seems to have worked temporarily- I get bsods less, but they haven't gone completely away.

Alright to recap-
BSOD's quite frequently, various messages every time
Started after a BIOS update
Wasn't realtek driver- tried updating, no luck
Wasn't windows install- new install and persists
I reflashed the BIOS- no luck
Norton and Malwarebytes disabled
Works for a little bit after resetting CMOS battery.
With new windows install, BSOD's became prevalent after a gpu driver update

share dump files so we can see if its blaming anything in particular

what ram sticks are you using? can you share the codes?

You have hardware isses dude
