kernel security check failure BSOD

Question

Hey guys,

my PC often gives me a "kernel security check failure windows" BSOD and I don't know how to get rid of it.

I tried reinstalling windows, used SFC, DISM and CHKDSK, tried uninstalling software wich I suspect caused the issue (Logitech G hub), updated chipset and GPU drivers, clean install GPU driver using DDU and the problem still persists.

Here is information about my system and log files:
thank you,

Answer 1

Yes, I believe it is an NVIDIA driver-related issue.
My Minecraft just crashed while I was playing, showing exit code -1073740791 and suggesting that I install the latest graphics driver.

However, I already have the latest graphics driver installed, and I even used DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) to perform a clean installation.
What version of the NVIDIA Game Ready Driver should I install instead?

I also turned off hibernation using powercfg.exe /hibernate off to see if that will help.

Answer 2

Why one of these .dmp file contains myfault in the stack which is part of notmyfault program that can manually intiate a crash? Most of it tho are hibernate related and some faint mention of nvlddmkm.

And ye i think that nvidia gpu driver is part of your issue also

Your event has lots of it mention

DDU | r/TechSupport Wiki (rtech.support) then try an older driver.

For the hiernate thingy, pls disable hibernate in power options in settings. Restart pc then see if you it bsods. Otherwise drive issue

Answer 4

Hi Timur, thanks for reaching out. My name is Bernard a Windows fan like you. I'll be happy to help you out today.

I understand the issue you have, there is nothing to worry I am here to help, can you further check if you have more dump files on the PC? As per checking the Minidump file, it is only displaying general errors, in addition, can you please check the System logs on the PC so that we can further examine what is the root cause of the issue?

To do this kindly follow the steps from this link:

Let me know how it goes and I hope that helps.

Why is this .dmp file sound like a full memory dump? pls never ever share that here as it is severely sensitive. Instead

- Go here and download it https://github.com/Spec-ify/specify/releases/download/v1.3.2/Specify.exe

- Run it as admin

- Click Start, then wait

- On the browser and website it opens copy and paste the link to this channel

This retrieves no personal info

It just gives relevant info which are dump files, system specs, etc

Make sure to accept the thing related to dump files, pretty sure there's prompt that asks you it

>> PLEASE FOLLOW BOTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! READ EVERY LETTER <<

this will get current info bout your system state aswell as small memory dumps which aren't sensitive. Make sure to do both instructions...

However this .dmp file has a faint mention of nvlddmkm in it's raw stack
