Blue Screen Of Death is killing me.

[Mouad]

Hello,
I'm having a weird peoblem with the blue screen error, sometimes I turn on my PC I wait for 2-3 minutes and I get the blue screen and each time with a different message or error code, the problem is not the blue screen itself, the problem is that I can't find a solution or know the reason behind it, I try every solution I find in the forums but they don't work for me, the funny thing is that the original posters always claim that a certain solution worked for them. Sometimes the PC starts normally but once i lunch a game (usually Battlefield) I get the blue screen while i'm in the lobby. here are some error codes I receive in the blue screen:
1- Service system exception.

2- Irql not less or equal.
3- Bad pool header.

4- Memory managment.
I'm using Windows 8.1 and these are my specs:
MOBO: Asrock Z170 Pros4.

CPU: i5 6600k @ 3.50GHz.

GPU: GTX 960.
RAM: 8 gb.
Help me please this is really frustrating.

I had the exact same issue on my system. You need to uninstall nvidia drivers and remove all files associated with them (safe mode might be helpful here), then install the latest version again.

Are your sticks running in dual channel?

 

If they are, check them one by one, in each slot.

I reinstalled windows itself, worked fine for a week then I started having it again.

use a different version of drivers, even beta versions will be better. Believe me, this is GPU driver related.

Memtest86. Please run memtest86 overnight.

Same advice i was gonna give, you could try the ram as well by removing and swapping also, I would check the manual that came with your MOBO for compatibility issues we rarely see them but compatibility issues are still a thing at times.

Its a program installed to a flash drive. It tests your ram. I had random BSODs of random names and they were RAM related.

Now the blue screen doesn't even let me open chrome. This is really pissing me off

[mrgooglegeek]

use another system to download if u have one.

if you can get to control panel then system & security and admin tools there's a windows memory diagnostic tool there, 

if not open cmd and type mdsched.exe

 

it works at a hardware level so drivers are not a issue for it

Sounds like a RAM problem to me.

I unistall the NVIDIA driver, now i can't reinstall it because two or three minutes are not enough to do so

The reason why i'm excluding the RAM is that sometimes (rarely) the pc runs totally fine, I play for three hours with no error, Unfortunately this happens only 2% of the attempts of getting a normal session.

I had bad ram for many months - year before I finally found out it was the RAM.

For me though it was incompatibility rather than faulty ram.

 

RAM can also show so many errors that it's hard to keep up. It's always random as well unless it's very bad.
