BSOD while playing Age of Empires II HD

[x BlueRobot]

Good luck with your results

It's great to know, you haven't had any issues, I would leave the Repair Install until you have another BSOD.

 

[Roy Renard]

Great, thank you very much for everything!

 

[x BlueRobot]

Welcome, I'm glad everything is working okay now

 

[Roy Renard]

Well... hello. Sorry to bother you, but it seems that the crashes and BSOD's have started happening yet again.
These past couple of weeks, everything has been working flawlessly; however, today, 3 crashes occurred while playing AoE II HD online. I tried executing via Elevated Command Prompt the sfc /scannow command three or four times today, rebooting the system after each completed scan. It said that it couldn't fix all the files, just like last time, and I hoped that it bore the same results, but the crashes continued happening.
I even downloaded the System Update Readiness Tool and tried to install it, but just before the installation completed, the progress bar got stuck for about 40 minutes, so I closed it via Task Manager. I then retried to run the installer, but it now held me an error message. After that, I executed yet another sfc /scannow command that, at the end, now said that it didn't find any integrity violations, so I played an online AoE II match. It lasted for about an hour and a half, and just when it ended, a new crash occurred.
In one of your last posts you said that I should go for a Repair Install should the BSOD's and crashes return, so I'm gonna try that out and post the results as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, here is the new crash dump data obtained via SF Diagnostic Tool.
Thanks in advance!

Hi again and thanks for the files,

The driver which seems to be corrupted, is a Windows port driver, so we can gather Windows is corrupted.

The other dumps also report memory corruption, and here's the corrupted drivers:

So, running the Repair Install should take care of memory corruption?

 

[x BlueRobot]

It should hopefully fix the Windows files

 

[Roy Renard]

Alright, the Repair Install is done. I'll be updating for results.
Thanks again!

 

[x BlueRobot]

Thanks, and that's great to know

 

[Roy Renard]

So well, so far, everything's alright now. I hope everything's fixed now. Thanks for the help, again

 

[x BlueRobot]

Leave the thread for a few days, and then mark this thread as solved if you have no further problems

 

[Roy Renard]

Well, sorry for being a constant bother, but my problem with crashes and BSOD's doesn't seem to stop for good.
Just after completing the Repair Install, everything seemed to work alright. Playing almost any game didn't start crashes at all (not Age of Empires II nor AoEIII). However, after recently buying a Steam game called Don't Starve and checking it out for about 5 minutes, a sudden crash occurred. This was about a couple of days after the Repair Install. After that, nothing worth noting happened for about a week, so I thought it wouldn't be necessary to come back here for help.
But yesterday, sudden reboots, crashes and BSOD's started happening yet again and without even playing any game at all. Today, more crashes occurred while watching a stream. So I come here hoping for help on how to get a definitive solution for this (that doesn't involve buying a new PC).
I'll leave the SF Dump files here.
Thanks in advance!

Your Realtek Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC NT Driver seems to be a possible cause, please update the driver from here - Realtek

 

[Roy Renard]

Already downloaded and installed the driver update, but the situation didn't get better. I just got a new BSOD while opening a game, which then caused several reboots and chain-crashes. I even got a crash during the "Starting Windows" screen.
Here is the new crash info.

 

[x BlueRobot]

Unfortunately, that dump file is least 4 days old, have you checked this folder?

C:\Windows\Minidump

Run Driver Verifier to scan for any corrupted drivers which may be causing problems, this program works by running various stress tests on drivers, in order to produce a BSOD which will locate the driver; run for least 24 hours:

   Information

Additional Help - http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lo...-driver-verifier-identify-issues-drivers.html

 

[Roy Renard]

Ok, so I activated Driver Verifier. After the reboot, BSOD's appeared while starting up, so I couldn't even start normally and was forced to start in Safe Mode. However, the Minidump folder still contained the same dump file from 4 days ago and I somehow can't get it to produce a new dump file. What should I do?

 

[x BlueRobot]

Check the settings for configuring Minidumps, and a driver starting at boot, may be causing a problem. Do you have any idea about the type of Stop Code? E.g. Stop 0xC9

They few reasons for the crash dumps not being recorded are: page file is either corrupt or too small; kernel code and data structures used for writing crash dumps have become corrupt at the time of the crash; hardware failure such as the hard drive or disk controller or even bad cabling.

 

[Roy Renard]

Well, I made sure that the settings for producing a Minidump file were correct after a BSOD, but it still doesn't make a new one after the driver verifier produces a crash.
The Blue Screen shows this in Technical Information. I hope it is useful as to what to do next:

***STOP: 0x000000C9 (0x000000000000023E, 0xFFFFF88003FA2324, 0xFFFFF98002A64EE0, 0x0000000000000000)

 

[x BlueRobot]

There's definitely a driver at boot causing a problem. I would disable Driver Verifier, and then run Autoruns.

Autoruns for Windows

Save the output as a .Arn file and then upload in your next post.

I would post a screenshot of the Boot Execute tab too.

 

[Roy Renard]

Well, I ran Autoruns, but the Boot Execute tab doesn't show anything at all, so I guess a screenshot of it would be useless.
Here's the output.
Also, got a crash today, again, while playing AoEII, and a new minidump file was produced. Also, after the crash occurred, a couple crashes more were produced while rebooting, along with a BSOD containing different Technical Information:

"SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION"
*** STOP: 0x0000003B (0x00000000C0000005, 0xFFFFF880010123FA, 0xFFFFF88009032980, 0x0000000000000000)
*** MpFilter.sys - Address FFFFF880010123FA base at FFFFF88001000000, Date Stamp 5091a97a

Here's the new minidump file as well.
Thanks again.
