BSOD While Gaming

Question

Sometimes I get a BSOD while gaming idk what's the cause of the issue. Minidump below:

Minidump 1

Minidump 2

Answer 1

Open File Explorer, then go to C:\Windows\System32.

In there perform a search for CSAudio.sys

When you find that file, right click it and select Properties, then select the Details tab on the resulting dialog.

Please provide a screenshot of that Details tab.

Answer 2

Yes, I can see the driver in the list using driver verifier. Do I uninstall it?

Answer 3

Please ensure Driver Verifier is now disabled.

Verifier indicates a driver usually associated to something named CSAudio is causing your PC to crash, do you have something like that installed on your PC?

Answer 4

Hello, I did what u asked for and created a new DMP here.

Answer 5

Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Your minidump files just indicate memory (RAM) corruption no specific cause of the crashes is listed.

To try to force Windows to show the underlying cause of the crashes, the best option would be to turn on Driver Verifier, let your PC crash 3 times, then you must turn off Driver Verifier, and finally, upload any newly created minidump files

Before you run Driver Verifier, please create a new System Restore Point

Note, if you have any difficulty getting into Windows with Driver Verifier enabled:

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

Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run these two commands, then restart your PC.
