[Solved] Hourly BSOD crashes 0x0000007A NTFS.SYS (Minimal knowledge)

Exactly an hour after rebooting the system freezes and crashes to the blue error screen. And the crash dumps fail every time. Here is the error message

I already removed and re-installed windows to attempt to fix the issue. And ran boot-scans with Avast to check for any infections. Searching around I haven't found anyone that has an issue that is as punctual as this error. I tried to download the windows spec tool but the installation failed. Here are by basic specs

At a loss here...all of my files are backed up so data loss isn't a concern. Any ideas on how to proceed will be much appreciated.

Thank you,

-John

Would formatting all of the drives and fresh windows install work?

You tried that earlier, din't you?

 

[JsFranko]

Yes but I left one of my drives with some data on it. I'll start running through the diagnostic tests.

 

[koolkat77]

Alright

 

[JsFranko]

Ran 'SF Diagnostic Tool' here is the zip file.

 

[koolkat77]

No dump files. Try grabbing all again.
If you're not getting the dumps follow:

ok. Just changed it too mini-dumps from Kernel. It should crash again in about 10-13 minutes, hopefully the dump saves this time. With the majority of the previous crashes it has came up with an error when trying to log the crash.

Apologies for my ignorance

[koolkat77]

No problem. Waiting for the dumps.

 

[JsFranko]

Ok ran 'SF Diagnostic Tool' again after restarting and the latest crash wasn't logged either. "Sorry no dump found"

After about 20 seconds it changed to this screen.

I shut down and rebooted.

Wait for another crash & upload the dumps that you get in your next post.

 

[JsFranko]

Thanks for your help. I'll keep working on it tomorrow.

Were you able to solve your blue screen problem?

 

[JsFranko]

Yeah. Turns out all that was needed was the SSD firmware update.

 

[koolkat77]

Yeah. Turns out all that was needed was the SSD firmware update.

Nice to hear that. If you mentioned that you have an SSD in your first post, you would be instructed to get the latest firmware right away.
