Hello, Lately, when running an application called Prepar3D, my system has had BSODs. It's a flightsim application, which relies a lot on GPU, CPU and RAM. Lately, when flying over a certain part of the world with a lot of mountains, my pc bsods, so I suspect it has to do with all the terrain rendering that is necessary. My system used to be stable and never had BSODs whatsoever, but lately that has changed. Whether it's GPU or CPU related, I don't know, but essential to know. I've tried to reinstall Windows 10 and Prepar3D, also reapplied thermal paste to both the GPU and CPU, updated BIOS and enabled Hyperthreading, but none of that has really changed anything. My GPU's temperature decreased a bit (10-15 degrees) but can still go up as far as 80 degrees. I also monitored temps and VRAM usage prior to the crash, none of them being near the limits. Nothing is overclocked. As for the BSOD, it's always event 41 and bugcheckcode 292: <Event xmlns="** http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event**" > <System> <Provider Name=" Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power " Guid=" {331c3b3a-2005-44c2-ac5e-77220c37d6b4} " /><EventID>41</EventID><Version>8</Version><Level>1</Level><Task>63</Task><Opcode>0</Opcode><Keywords>0x8000400000000002</Keywords><TimeCreated SystemTime=" 2023-04-12T03:49:16.0007809Z " /><EventRecordID>3680</EventRecordID><Correlation /><Execution ProcessID=" 4 " ThreadID=" 8 " /><Channel>System</Channel><Computer>DESKTOP-209P4JF</Computer><Security UserID=" S-1-5-18 " /></System> <EventData> <Data Name=" BugcheckCode ">292</Data><Data Name=" BugcheckParameter1 ">0x10</Data><Data Name=" BugcheckParameter2 ">0x0</Data><Data Name=" BugcheckParameter3 ">0x0</Data><Data Name=" BugcheckParameter4 ">0x0</Data><Data Name=" SleepInProgress ">0</Data><Data Name=" PowerButtonTimestamp ">0</Data><Data Name=" BootAppStatus ">0</Data><Data Name=" Checkpoint ">0</Data><Data Name=" ConnectedStandbyInProgress ">false</Data><Data Name=" SystemSleepTransitionsToOn ">0</Data><Data Name=" CsEntryScenarioInstanceId ">0</Data><Data Name=" BugcheckInfoFromEFI ">true</Data><Data Name=" CheckpointStatus ">0</Data><Data Name=" CsEntryScenarioInstanceIdV2 ">0</Data><Data Name=" LongPowerButtonPressDetected ">false</Data></EventData> </Event> I think my minidump files are corrupted, which is why I consult the forum, because I have searched on Google already, but I'm not able to go ahead and debug myself.

It is recommended to install all the latest drivers available from the motherboard manufacturer. In some cases, the drivers that Windows automatically installs are old and may not work correctly.

Thanks. I installed all the latest drivers. Got yet another BSOD in Prepar3D today. This time I managed to get the stop code that is displayed on the blue screen. The stop code was: "UNEXPECTED_STORE_EXCEPTION". But the BSOD was rather different this time. Instead of restarting the system right away as it used to, the screen was frozen for minutes, then went on to blue screen, and then restarted. As the system froze, CPU and SSD usage rised to 100%.

Did this BSOD create minidump or memory.dmp file?

Yes, now it finally did. https://www.dropbox.com/s/258ebwyw5fiaq8s/041723-6734-01.zip?dl=0

This minidump mentions a driver related to Intel Rapid Storage Technology. Update the Intel Rapid Storage Technology and see if the system will work stable.
