The DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION bug check has a value of 0x000000E6. This is the bug check code for all Driver Verifier DMA Verification violations.

Important

This article is for programmers. If you're a customer who has received a blue screen error code while using your computer, see Troubleshoot blue screen errors.

Note

The E6 major bugcheck code can be observed when Driver Verifier is not enabled. Please see the DMA Verification page for more information if you are experiencing this code without Driver Verifier enabled.

DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION Parameters

Parameter 1 is the only parameter of interest. This parameter identifies the exact violation. If a debugger is attached, an informative message is displayed in the debugger.

Parameter 1 Cause of Error and Debugger Message

Resolution

This bug check can only occur when Driver Verifier has been instructed to monitor one or more drivers. If you did not intend to use Driver Verifier, you should deactivate it. You might also consider removing the driver that caused this problem.

If you are the driver writer, use the information obtained through this bug check to fix the bugs in your code.
