So, I have been experiencing a wealth of crashes related to the volmgr and page files. So, to start off, I had windows page filing off due to the massive amount of space it took up on my small 32 gb operating system SSD. However, afterwards, I began getting BSODS related to page filing whenever I played demanding games. Also, my applications frequently crashed. So, I re-enabled my page files and set them to system managed. It is currently using 5888 mb for pagefiles. I went to play ARK: Survival Evolved(A FANTASTIC game by the way for those of you who haven't played it) and while the game did load up without a BSOD, my pc froze about 2 minutes after. I got back to my event viewer and it says it was a VolMgr error: "Crash dump initialization failed!". ?All of my drivers are up to date and my SSD and HDD are basically brand new. What do I do? Typically I find the solution to these errors rather easily, but i'm stumped. This error is the bane of my gaming experience.

My Specs:
MOBO: Asus 970 pro gaming Aura
GPU: GTX 760x2 (with stable overclock, tested with furmark)
CPU: AMD fx-9370(5.0 ghz overclock and unparked, stable and water cooled with Corsair H80i GT)
HDD: Western Digital 1tb 7200 rpm
SSD: Adata 32gb
PSU: Sentey 725w

Temps with Corsair link:
Cpu: 14-20c Idle; 50-55c load
GPU: 38-45c idle; 90-95c load


 
How much ram have you got? My page file is only 1gb and its system managed

this might fix error 2
Do option one here: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5560-bsod-minidump-configure-create-windows-10-a.html
then do this step under it: Have Windows Create a Small Memory Dump (Minidump) on BSOD

all the VolMgr was telling you was crash dumps were off, its a result of having no page file. Maybe next crash, if you follow the steps above, you will get a crash dump

If so, look in c/windows/minidumps but you need a viewer like http://www.resplendence.com/whocrashed or http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html to read the file. copy screen dumps into here if you need assistance understanding them :)

you can also copy file to documents and then upload the copy to a cloud server and share a link here and someone will go through it and work out what is cause
