Help! My PC Keeps Blue Screening After Updating Drivers

Asked By TechWizard98 On

Hey everyone, I'm reaching out in hopes of finding some solutions for a blue screen of death (BSOD) issue I'm facing with my PC. The problems started after I used NV clean install to update my graphics driver, as I was experiencing high latency issues. Following the driver update, my PC began randomly freezing, and I had to force it to shut down. I then moved my NVMe drive from one slot to another thinking it would help, but instead, I started encountering BSODs. I've tried a few troubleshooting steps like resetting my PC, doing a clean install of Windows, and using Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to remove leftover drivers, but no luck so far. I've double-checked my hardware connections too. For reference, my specs are Windows 11, RTX 3050 GPU, an i5 12400F CPU, a Pro B660M-A DDR4 motherboard, a WD Black SN 770 NVMe, and 32GB DDR4 RAM. I'm really at a loss and would appreciate any advice or insights you might have!

Also, what exact error code are you seeing on the blue screen? It could give us some insight into what's causing the issue. If you get a black screen now and can’t see any codes, keep an eye out for the memory_management code, which you mentioned. That could point to RAM issues or driver complications.

Lastly, if you’re stuck at a black screen and the computer won’t respond, try booting into Safe Mode and see if you can roll back the drivers or perform a system restore to a point before you updated the drivers. Sometimes things just get tangled up after updates!

First things first, have you checked for crash dump files? You can find them in C:WindowsMinidump if you can boot into Windows or Safe Mode. These files will help in analyzing the BSODs more accurately. Once you find them, zip them up and upload them to a file sharing site like catbox.moe or mediafire.com. If you only have one crash dump, it still helps, but having multiple is better for diagnosis.
