Hello,
I finally got my new computer up and running on Friday, and for a couple of days it was going well. I'd installed all my drivers before doing anything, making sure the system was properly configured using the latest updates. Windows Update was fully up-to-date, as was Windows Defender.
Since Sunday night, I've been having constant BSOD's, most of which have been very vague and haven't pointed squarely at any particular driver or hardware fault.
I've since reinstalled Windows using a new installation media to see if that was the cause, to no avail. I've also tried reseating the graphics card and running my RAM through several passes of Memtest; also without luck.
Some days the system will happily let me play a few hours of games, others it won't let me watch a youtube video without a bluescreen.
An odd symptom is that my USB DAC/AMP (FiiO E10) will often skip or jump audio every 2-3 seconds on some boots (others will be fine) unless I'm playing audio via any WASAPI output (foobar).
This skipping also tends to result in Chrome tabs crashing if I'm watching any YouTube videos or similar.
My most recent BSODs have been:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL pointing at ntoskrnl.exe
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION pointing at dxgmms1.sys
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION pointing at ntoskrnl.exe
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL pointing at e1d64x64.sys
However on my original Windows install I recall also seeing a BAD_POOL_HEADER BSOD pointing to ntoskrnl.exe and another pointing at win32k.sys
Thank you for any assistance,
Adam / Trigger
