I've been experiencing random restarts on my PC, accompanied by a Driver Verifier DMA Violation error (0xE6). This is becoming quite frustrating, especially since I game for about two hours each day and it seems to occur every day or two. I also use Razer devices, and occasionally, they will shut off, mainly my headset, but sometimes my mouse as well. Can anyone provide insight or solutions to fix this?

Updating your computer is the first step. Just double-check that everything, including drivers and BIOS, is fully updated. If the issue persists, let me know and we can dig deeper into possible solutions.
First off, make sure all your system components have the latest drivers installed. It's crucial to keep everything up to date to prevent these issues. Have you checked that?
Yes! Everything is updated. BIOS, Windows, drivers—everything!
Your use of Razer devices could be contributing to this problem. I suggest looking at the Windows Security dashboard. In the Device Security section, check if 'Memory Integrity' is enabled. Sometimes Razer's drivers can interfere with system security, leading to that DMA violation. If you want to use those devices without issues, you might need to disable memory integrity, despite the risks involved. It seems their drivers don't play nice with Windows' security measures.
Okay, I'll check that out. Thanks! I'll provide an update after.
Also, if both memory integrity and kernel-mode protection are disabled, consider enabling them for better security. Just a thought!
Everything's up to date! Drivers, BIOS, Windows—it's all good.
