First BSOD error: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT


Hi,

As title says this is my first BSOD on new build with error: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT. The error appeared while watching youtube video on Firefox. I tried to run the DM Log Collector but it says "The system cannot find the path specified". I also don't appear to have a "Minidump" folder in C:Windows.

I've run "Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool" and it says it found no problems.
Windows Update is up to date.
Firefox is on latest version.
No problems with PC up to now.

Please let me know what I should do next.

Thanks.

Hi D3C3n50r,

Welcome to the 10blog

We will need a zip file from the DM Log Collector, dumps are important but in some cases not required for analysis given that they are not present.

It sounds like the BSOD did not do its job properly, basically speaking is the job to copy the data of the memory and save it in a dump file. The size of this file depends on the recovery settings (kernel or complete), then a new folder is created to save a mini version of the dumped data. Of course before the date from the memory is being copied it is first validated to ensure it does not contain corruption (false data), if this is the case then no dump will be created and it is a signal of faulty memory.
Another part of the BSOD process is improperly saving a dump, this can lead to corrupted dump files or no dump at all. This generally is being caused by a bad hard drive or firmware of SSD.

Please run following tests and create a new folder in C:Windows called Minidump.



Diagnostics Test
 System File Check

Please try following:
  • Open an admin command prompt
  • Copy/paste "sfc/scannow" (without quotes) and press enter
  • When it finished reboot your system
  • Open again an admin command prompt
  • Enter sfc/scannow again

If sfc/scannow says "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them" after the second SFC, please upload the cbs.log file located at %systemroot%LogsCBS, if the file is too large try a 3rd party uploader like dropbox, onedrive, google drive, mediafire etc.
System File Check(SFC a.k.a. Windows Resource Protection) needs to have your system rebooted in order for sfc to try to fix the problems that it finds.

Make a photo of SFC and post it.

Yes I should have mentioned the BSOD froze my pc instantly and I had to manually shut down.

I've uploaded the CBS.log here: CBS.log - Google Drive
I've created a Minidumps folder and posted sfc screenshot below:



My OS is saved on SSD.

Many shortcuts are corrupted, please follow below suggestion

Please try following command in admin command prompt
Code:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Ok here is the result I got after that scan:


Download the IMAGE HEALTH tool & setup media from this post, choose OPTION 3 in the tool.

Hi, it says "The batch file cannot be found"


You have mounted the downloaded ISO?
