Windows 10 BSOD indicates a hardware problem - but what hardware is the problem?

Not really; I have no comprehension or insight into why whatever happens at the BSOD has some great impact on a reboot or rather a 'boot again'. - one possibility is that the install is some kind of 'mess' which is not overcome by your restore strategies - another possibility is that some kind of hardware condition persists in spite of all kinds of efforts to get the hardware back to a 'cold' state, such as where the software is on the hdd - I don't think the difficulty and the steps are at all informative Hi Mike, I think the BSOD is one problem, which only then causes the second problem. o The second problem is the BSOD corrupts the boot session. However... and this is a biggie... the BSOD is repeatable (six times) for a period after the first recoverable reboot (only the BSOD changes in name). Actually, let me check my photographic date stamps... o BSOD #1 (with white lines) SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION https://i.postimg.cc/BnCkxJXG/bsod203.jpg Time: 20200914 06:50am o BSOD #2 (with white lines) SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED https://i.postimg.cc/5t7rRpB7/bsod204.jpg Time: 20200914 07:09am o BSOD #3 SYSTEM THREAD EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED https://i.postimg.cc/RFWY5fGM/bsod205.jpg Time: 20200914 07:28am o BSOD #4 (just the white lines) https://i.postimg.cc/tT8MXTmF/bsod206.jpg Time: 20200914 10:32am o BSOD #5 (with white lines) DRIVER OVERRAN STACK BUFFER https://i.postimg.cc/FFJ6Ty7p/bsod207.jpg Time: 20200914 10:49am o BSOD #6 KERNEL SECURITY CHECK FAILURE https://i.postimg.cc/gkFTQxhW/bsod208.jpg Time: 20200914 2:10pm The final repair happened at 3:18pm, and that has been stable for the past few days. Note that each time, in between BSODs, I was able to get Windows to boot; usually it happened automatically with a "diagnosing" & "automatic repair", but sometimes it booted directly to Windows (rarely though). In general, it took a few restarts to get it back to Windows between BSODs. Also note there were periods where I left the desk so the time is only the elapsed time unless the BSOD happened in front of me, where the pictures were taken when I returned to the BSOD screen as a fait accompli. -- I took a picture of every step, which I need to document better. |
