Driver_Verifier_Detected_Violation Blue screen Loop

Anonymous
2021-11-08T20:08:00+00:00

So yesterday I installed a new nvidia game-ready driver from their application and i’m using a Dell G15 Ryzen edition gaming laptop. I noticed that after the driver was installed my fps in my games dropped from the 200 normal to around 100. Other than that, it was running fine and I didn’t have any issues restarting it, etc. I went to sleep and woke up the next day to a blue screen and an error code Driver_Verifier_Detected_Violation and at first it was putting my pc into recovery mode after every 2 restarts and I was playing around in it trying to find where to disable my driver verifier (i got the tip from another online source) but i was unable to find it in time. Since then, my laptop has been stuck in the blue screen loop and now I am unable to access any boot methods or use any function keys to change the boot process. I’ve tried removing all external devices, even my mouse, to no avail. I’m just wondering if there are any options other than taking it to a tech store to get it taken care of. Thanks

    Hi Devinbh

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Start your PC, just as Windows attempts to load (spinning dots), press and hold Power Button for 5 - 10 seconds to perform a Hard Shut Down

    Do this twice

    On the third start Windows will boot into the Recovery Environment and from there you can access System Repair, Safe Mode, Command Prompt... etc.

    Go to Troubleshoot - Advanced Option - Startup Settings and click Restart

    Upon restart, press 4 to enter Safe Mode

    1

    Open Command Prompt as Administrator, then run these two commands:

    verifier /reset

    verifier /bootmode resetonbootfail

    Close Command Prompt

    2

    Open Device Manager (accessible by right clicking the Start Menu)

    Expand the Display Adapters section, right click that Nvidia device and choose Uninstall

    3

    Restart your PC.

    Hi Devinbh, rest assured, you are not doing anything wrong.

    If you cannot access the Recovery Environment, then, you will need to create a bootable Windows 10 USB on another working PC and boot your PC from that, then rather than installing Windows 10, select ‘Repair this Computer’ that will give you access to the Recovery Environment from there

    Then, please perform the steps above in Safe Mode.

    Click this link:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    to download the Media Creation Tool (Click on Download Tool Now), with that you can download the latest Windows 10 ISO (Select Create Installation Media for Another PC), you can create a bootable USB flash drive (min 8GB) using that tool

    Then, Boot your PC from the Installation Media you just created (change Boot Order in your BIOS)

    Hey dave, I appreciate the reply. I tried doing the steps you mentioned but I keep running into a problem. I tried to do the hard shutdown 2 times and on the spinning dot loading screen, but before my computer can even make it through 10 seconds it needs to shut down, it pops up with the blue screen and doesn’t activate the recovery environment. Is there something I could be doing wrong?
