SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED bsod

[Johnny999]

Hey, I've had a BSOD today with the stop code "SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED". BlueScreenView has marked two files as red - dxgmms2.sys and ntoskrnl.exe. Could someone please take a peek at the minidump (https://files.catbox.moe/hl4c5j.dmp)? I'm on Windows 11 (clean-installed it this January) and I've only had 3 BSODs other than this one, and they were all caused by me playing with memory undervolting (I'm currently not doing any under/over volting/clocking at all and all of my drivers are up-to-date). It occurred while I was browsing. I remember having BSODs once every two-three months when I was on Windows 10 and even some artifacting that would only occur right after booting up the PC (it never happened while playing games) and the OCCT VRAM test never reported any errors.

Can’t open the file to read it. So working without it, let’s see what can be done:  That particular thing is often an actual coding error which leads me to think this may have been one of those “once in a blue moon” cosmic ray things in which case it will not repeat.  (If it does repeat that of course is not the case) Does it repeat?  The once-every-couple-months thing you mention sounds like possible PSU weakness. Specs somehow practically always wind up being needed for these things

My PSU is the Corsair RM650x 2018, you can see the full specs on my profile. No idea why you can't open the file, I can open it without any problems with BlueScreenView.

I’m running on an iPhone.  Got nothing that will open that file type including Microsoft stuff.  
 

So to spare others from having to hit up his profile: video card is 3070, cpu is 5800x, motherboard is b550.

 

That’s enough..if the PSU is running on all cylinders and there aren’t any complications.  It’s definitely lower end.  If the PSU is atx3.0 you’re fine, but if it’s pre atx3.0 You might be having transient spike issues.  It’s common to add 100w if you’ve got a modern cpu or gpu and you’ve got both.  This might explain the win10 behavior.  Interesting that it went away even partially with win11.  This may just be a 1 time thing.  If it isn’t my first move would be to go up 100w on the PSU.  Or get one that is atx3.0

RM650x is lower end? What?

I've had Firefox flash green for a split second today. How should I check whether it's my GPU failing (which tests and for how long)?

650w is lower end
