BSOD watching YouTube video

Fill out your system specs. Click the link in my signature to do it.

The system crashed while the WebcamDell2 process was running. Have you done anything to your computer recently? Have you done a complete virus/malware scan recently?

Ok, I filled out my system specs and I ran a scan, but AVG didn't find anything.

I haven't done anything unusual to my computer recently. About the most risky thing I've done lately is download a .pdf off of 4shared, which was indeed a pdf, and was the size you'd expect.

Thanks for your help.



Also, for what it's worth, I filled out my specs using the window you get from right clicking on Computer and going to properties for what that tells, and from googling my model number and finding one with the same specs that I knew already. Everything looked like what I remembered, but admittedly, there's a chance it isn't the most reliable of methods. If it helps for faster or more complete reference, this is the site I used for reference.

Hi Scott2145, welcome to 7F! :)

Please use these utilities to reveal what your system specs are.

In no particular order:

SIW | System Information for Windows by Gabriel Topala

Belarc Advisor - Free Personal PC Audit, for software, hardware and security configuration information on your computer. Software license management, IT asset management, cyber security audits, and more.

Speccy - System Information - Free Download

Most members prefer speccy, but the choice is up to you. You will be surprised at what these utilities will tell you about your machine.

In the meantime I'll take a look at your reports.

Your welcome, much better on the Specs!

kegobeer was right about the WebcamDell2.ex

REFERENCE_BY_POINTER (18)
Arguments:
Arg1: fffffa8004f28080, Object type of the object whose reference count is being lowered
Arg2: fffffa800939b930, Object whose reference count is being lowered
Arg3: 0000000000000001, Reserved
Arg4: 0000000000000001, Reserved
    The reference count of an object is illegal for the current state of the object.
    Each time a driver uses a pointer to an object the driver calls a kernel routine
    to increment the reference count of the object. When the driver is done with the
    pointer the driver calls another kernel routine to decrement the reference count.
    Drivers must match calls to the increment and decrement routines. This bugcheck
    can occur because an object's reference count goes to zero while there are still
    open handles to the object, in which case the fourth parameter indicates the number
    of opened handles. It may also occur when the object’s reference count drops below zero
    whether or not there are open handles to the object, and in that case the fourth parameter
    contains the actual value of the pointer references count.

Did you have the webcam running when you were watching Youtube (YT)?

Have you been trying to upload to YouTube? YouTube searches webcams in the process and gives you the option to record with them. If you have clicked on "Yes" instead of "No", maybe just accidentally, it will start your webcam.
Another option is that your webcam is always running, as a background process or something similar.
