BSOD - Reference by Pointer
Hi
I am on Windows 7 Ultimate (Intel mobo, I7 X990 w\24GB RAM) and about 3 weeks ago began having BSOD issues, all with Reference By Pointer descriptions.
All crashes have occurred when I am actively using Firefox (78.12.0 esr). I generally have a number of windows with a number of tabs per Window, but this seems to occur with less open than I have run in the past (not sure, don't count). There does not seem to be any performance (speed\lag, etc) issues at the point of failure. Firefox reopens it's tabs and I can go on for some time before another crash.
It had been roughly a month prior to issues starting since any system changes were made. Th last change was installing a new (to me) HP P2055dn network printer and in January a TP-Link UB400 adapter for a BT Keyboard (Older MS 6000). Some other software config, but no new applications, and no conscious software updates. I have had some issues with my Epson Perfection V330 scanner of late not scanning the entire window (trimming the scan).
I did, based on another post, attempt to upgrade the video driver as it had been falsely begging. The driver was at it's latest, however some other Catalyst features did get updated. No noticeable impact.
EDIT: Just found a note that indicates I had a BSOD re netio.sys back about 5\16, but no other details.
