    Random BSOD 0x000000F4 - csrss.exe referenced in memory dump


    Hello all,

    Trying to troubleshoot an issue I'm having on my laptop with a random BSOD 0x000000f4. I pulled up windbg and opened up memory.dmp and ran an !analyze -v. Here's what the memory.dmp says about whats going on. Could you please help point me in the right direction?

    Things I've checked:
    1. csrss.exe is running twice in task manager, but event ID 0 and 1 respectively. ALso verified both are running from c:\windows\system32 so they are both valid. Sometimes multiples can be malware, but not the case here.
    2. GPU temperatures, thought it was a GPU overheating issue at first, but the GPU temps were low last night and it BSOD with another error nvdllkm.
    3. Lately I've just been letting my laptop idle playing some music from Chrome via pandora. It hadn't done anything other than turn on and bring up chrome to play music, sat there for a few hours, then crashed with the F4 BSOD as opposed to the nvdllkm error.
    4. The minidump from earlier today references ntoskrnl.exe as the culprit.

    This makes me think it could be either a HDD or a RAM issue.

    I pulled up the full memory.dmp from this morning and here's what I got. Please review and let me know what you think I need to do to resolve.

    Welcome to 7F. We need more information to analyze your logs. Follow Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions, let the tool run until it has completely finished and then upload the new logs.

    Sorry about that, I thought I had already done enough by using windbg to check the full memory.dmp.. Thought the mini dumps weren't as helpful.

    Anyways, here is the zip file. Let me know what you think.

    I ran a scan with Sea Tools on my Hdd, 40 bad sectors. Repaired them and I'm back into Windows. Going to see if that was all it was and play with it a bit tonight. I'll run a full scan again tomorrow. Dont dig too hard on those logs, prob just the hdd. I/O error was what pointed me to it.

    FYI - Ran another Long generic pass with the SeaTools and got a pass. Looking like that was the issue, also no bsod yet since repairing the bad sectors.

    Thx guys!
