Just received this while on Google, any recommendations to fix it? This is my third BSOD within a week.

#

Are you on windows 11, or windows 10?

lost oar
#

11

hearty field
#

Have you got any pending Windows updates?

lost oar
#

No

hearty field
#

and have you updated your NVIDIA driver?

#

or AMD

lost oar
#

Everything is updated. I check all the time. Nvidia was updated yesterday

hearty field
#

Is core isolation turned on or off for you?

lost oar
#

Not sure what that is 😅

cprgbglitch :tada: Congrats @lost oar, you levelled up to 3! :tada: cprgbglitch

hearty field
#

type core isolation settings into windows

lost oar
hearty field
#

Did you type it into windows search

lost oar
#

Everything seems switched on

#

Yeah

hearty field
#

What CPU do you have?

lost oar
#

Ryzen 9 5900x

hearty field
#

i'd check the minidump, you can read this file by downloading Bluescreen viewer

#

and inserting the Minidump file

#

Minidump location
C drive> Windows > Minidump

lost oar
#

This what i found

#

Ive had 3 bsod and ntosknl.exe has been the cause of each one

hearty field
#

Yeah in that case you'd need to reinstall windows

Windows 11 Installation

If you are upgrading from Windows 10, you may need to enable TPM and Secure Boot in order to proceed with the Windows 11 installation - please follow the TPM & Secure Boot guide below first.

:warning: When reinstalling Windows, you will lose any files which are not backed up to the cloud or an external drive - please ensure any files you would like to keep are backed up before continuing.

:one: Click the button below and download the 'Create Windows 11 Installation Media' tool.
:two: Follow through the installation tool, and choose 'USB flash drive' when prompted. Your USB flash drive must be 8GB or greater.
:three: Once the tool has finished, shut down the PC you're installing Windows on and insert the USB drive.
:four: Next, repeatedly press the following key while your PC is turning on, depending on your motherboard:
rog ASUS/ROG: F8
aorus Aorus/Gigabyte: F12
msi asrock cp MSI/ASRock/Cyberpower: F11
Then choose your USB drive from the list to boot from it.
:five: Follow through the installation tool. When it asks for your product key, click Skip - your PC will automatically reactivate. Make sure to select the same Windows version as you ordered with your PC, then choose a Custom installation.
:six: Select the drive in which you would like to install Windows on (you will want to install Windows on your SSD, this is typically a smaller drive), delete any partitions which already exist and then select Drive # Unallocated Space, and click Next.
:seven: Once your PC restarts, you will be taken to the first-time setup screen, where you can setup your user account and preferences.

Okay Thanks

#

I assume ill lose all my files from the hard drive that has windows installed on

hearty field
#

Yes you will. Back any important files up, Games etc can be deleted because you can redownload those

lost oar
#

I have a few other hard drives installed would it be fine to transfer everything to one of them?

hearty field
#

You may be wise to just delete what's on all of them, windows sometimes throws a fit about drives between OS's especially windows 11

#

Make sure you name your C drive something you will remember so when you delete it in the format you know which one is your SSD

lost oar
#

Not sure to do this as ill lose important files and i have no way of transferring them

hearty field
#

Back them up to a cloud service

#

Onedrive, google drive, etc

#

Or an external drive

lost oar
#

Dont have enough space.

#

Might just return the pc and go to a different company.

hearty field
#

Is it just documents or applications?

lost oar
#

Documents

#

Plus ive never reinstall windows before and i dont want to make my situation worse. Really not happy after paying 3k for a pc thats had problems since the start.

hearty field
#

Windows unfortunately does this sometimes, it can happen to basically any PC

#

Windows self corrupts a lot

#

You could just try and reinstall the windows drive and leave the other drives alone, should be fine

lost oar
#

Okay well my ssd is called windows and ill need to transfer my stuff over to a different harddrive

#

Im just unsure about installing. Dont have a clue on what to do.

hearty field
#

The instructions are above, i can walk you through it if you want

lost oar
#

Yeah that would be great.

#

Im currently moving my files to another SSD

hearty field
#

Just don't drag files from the X86 folder, documents are fine

lost oar
#

Just got another

#

Bsod

hearty field
#

Same code?

lost oar
#

Nope

#

Something to do with cache

hearty field
#

Cache manager?

lost oar
#

Think so

brittle pelicanBOT
#

cprgbglitch :tada: Congrats @lost oar, you levelled up to 4! :tada: cprgbglitch

lost oar
#

Yeah cache manager

#

Same ntosknl.exe

hearty field
#

Yeah that's an issue from the windows install, Have you got a USB for creating a USB bootable media

lost oar
#

Ive got a usb

#

It has 7.26gb of free space

hearty field
#

The installer will wipe the USB

lost oar
#

Another one

#

Cant even transfer my files

hearty field
#

Do you have another machine to create the installer USB?

#

Such as a laptop

lost oar
#

Its only doing it when im transferring my files

hearty field
#

Yeah well unfortunately that's the case, you will have to consider whatever is on that drive a loss unfortunately

lost oar
#

Fair enough

#

Just want this sorted

hearty field
#

Another laptop to create the installer or PC?

lost oar
#

Ill use this pc

#

Only happens when im transfering files

hearty field
#

I'd avoid it to be honest,. if windows is acting up, Will be quicker on a different machine

#

still welcome to try it on this PC to create the installer

lost oar
#

Ill use my other pc if it keeps happening

#

But for now ill use this one

lost oar
#

Okay, will do once i get this file on my other ssd

#

This one is important 😅

#

Nearly done

#

Are you sure this will help, many suggestions online saying its a memory related issue.

hearty field
#

Memory related you would have had a Memory management BSOD by now

#

always wise to clear software related faults from the equation before narrowing down potential hardware

lost oar
#

Okay its installing on the usb now

#

Hopefully it fixes it

hearty field
#

Takes a while, as it has to download the entire OS,

#

depends on the USB speed and your internet

lost oar
#

Usb is old 😅

hearty field
#

Lets be considerate and say 10-15 mins

lost oar
#

I did order a recovery usb with the system but never received it
