Kernel Related BSOD's

Question

So my computer has been getting Kernel and nvlddmkm.sys related errors and bsods recently. Also bsod was frozen twice one at 0 percent other at 100 had to hold power button to close. Here are the dump files:

also i have noticed that BSOD only happens in specific games and moments where there is alot more going on

Answer 1

Thanks for updating me, Berkay.

Since the issue still persists even after performing a clean install, probably the issue is more hardware related rather than software related. If possible, take it to a reliable maintenance shop for hardware checks.

I suggest contacting Nvidia support services to provide you with a compatible driver for your gtx1050ti graphics card.

Please do not hesitate to ask if you need further assistance.

Answer 2

i did a clean install and the crashes were less significant

i also ran a memtest usb and there wasnt any errors.

kernel power errors do not appear as well as the old nvlddmkm

but there is now a new nvlddmkm.sys error(problably from the new driver that i installed from the manufacturers site) that reads:

The description for Event ID 13 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

this error forces me out of an application. and i also got the TDR_VIDEO_FAILURE error which pointed to nvlddmkm.sys

im sure that i have the latest driver.

for some reason geforce experience crashes aswell

i recently had my gpu changed from gtx 1050 to gtx 1050 ti but 1050 ti drivers(old or new) are somehow incompatible whilst VGA driver from the manufacturers site is compatible.

Answer 3

Thank you for updating me, Berkay.

Have you tried performing a Windows repair or clean install?

Have you tested the RAM?

Answer 4

i have tried all of this but none worked. Also, graphical glitches appear before crashing the game then sometimes the computer. This could all be kernel or power related.

Answer 5

Hi Berkay,

I'm Dyari. Thanks for reaching out. I will be happy to assist you in this regard.

The minidump file indicates nvlddmkm.sys file as a cause of the BSOD which is related to the Nvidia Graphics card driver.

If you do have an Nvidia graphics card installed on your computer, try to uninstall its driver completely using this DDU free utility, then download/install the latest graphics card driver or a driver that is compatible with your computer from the manufacturer's official website:

If it did not help, install an older version of the graphics card driver. Sometimes, older versions work more smoothly rather than the latest ones.

Or, you can download GeForce Experience to keep your drivers up to date:

If you are overclocking your PC, try running everything (CPU, GPU, system memory) at their stock speeds. See if the issue is still reproducible. Turn off XMP profile or set it to Auto.

If your computer still encounters BSOD, test the RAM with the free utility MemTest86, then run a full 8 pass scan to test your RAM for physical errors:

Please do not hesitate to ask if you need further assistance.

Stay safe
