BoDs out of nowhere on windows 11 DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

Question

Hey Everyone!

Since yesterday/today I started experiencing weird errors on my windows 11. I did some preliminary checks and I do not think its anything hardware related... At least nothing points at that, stuff worked without issues for a year if not longer at this point...

All my drivers seem to be up to date and there is nothing weird connected to my computer that could have issues

My setup is (gonna list the parts that possibly matter the most):

Operating system: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro, Version 10.0.26200

CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900K (we can exclude the fault CPU on this one, I have went thought the warranty process once and my bios been updated since to have correct microcode)

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080

Nothing is overclocked or changed, it runs as stock as it could run.

Attaching the google drive link with the zip with all three dumps from yesterday/today:

Hi, I'm Bernard, a fellow Windows user. I'm happy to help!

As per checking and analyzing the DMP file you have, there is an error in nvlddmkm.sys, which is your Nvidia graphics card driver. For us to fix the issue, kindly follow the steps below:

 

Let us run a clean installation of the Nvidia driver. This is different from doing DDU or updating the driver, as this will remove all entries and replace them with compatible ones. Kindly follow the steps from the link below:

Watch out for ads on the site that may advertise products frequently classified as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Products). Thoroughly research any product advertised on the site before you decide to download and install it.

 

Additional note: If the issue persists, I suggest removing the GPU and placing it into another PCIe port available (This is only applicable if you are using a Desktop PC or an External GPU). However, if all fails, I suggest contacting a local technician to physically check the device for any hardware-related issues.
