To address the constant black screens and error codes related to LiveKernelEvent 141 and 1b8, you can follow these troubleshooting steps:
- Check for Hardware Issues: The LiveKernelEvent 141 often indicates a problem with the graphics card or its driver. Ensure that your graphics card is properly seated and that all connections are secure.
- Update Drivers: Make sure that your graphics drivers are up to date. You can do this by visiting the manufacturer's website or using Windows Update.
- Run Hardware Diagnostics: Use the hardware diagnostics tools provided by your system manufacturer to check for any hardware malfunctions.
- Check Event Viewer: Look for any critical errors in the Event Viewer that occurred around the same time as the black screen events. This can help identify the faulty driver or hardware.
- Perform a Clean Boot: This can help determine if background programs are causing the issue. Instructions for performing a clean boot can be found in the Microsoft support documentation.
- Memory Diagnostics: Run the Windows Memory Diagnostics tool to check for memory issues. You can access this tool through the Control Panel by searching for memory diagnostics.
- System File Checker: Use the System File Checker tool to repair any missing or corrupted system files. You can run this by executing the command
SFC /scannowin the Command Prompt. - Check for Overheating: Ensure that your system is not overheating, as this can lead to hardware failures and black screens.
- Rollback Drivers: If the issue started after a driver update, consider rolling back to a previous version of the driver.
- Check for Software Conflicts: Ensure that there are no conflicts with other software, particularly any that may interact with the graphics hardware.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider seeking further assistance from a professional technician or the manufacturer's support team.
