Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.

See if your computer is creating minidump files.

These files are in "C:\Windows\Minidump".

Copy any files you have to your desktop and store them in a ZIP file. Then upload the ZIP file to the cloud (OneDrive), choose to share it, and get the link.

Post the link to the ZIP file here so I can have a look.

I await your reply. Click on the "Reply" button below my reply.

The minidump indicates the driver "nvlddmkm.sys" as the cause of the crash. This driver belongs to your Nvidia graphics card.

Download the latest driver for your graphics card from the Nvidia website. Then, use the free DDU tool to remove the current driver. Then, install the latest driver using the installer you downloaded.

DDU: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-dr...

Nvidia driver download: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
Run the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver.

See if the system will work stable after this.

If you need a tutorial for using DDU, I recommend the video below.

If the problem occurs again after doing this, please send the minidump created by it. Click on the "Reply" button below my reply.

Feel free to ask back any questions.

In this case, try installing an old version of the Nvidia driver. Try one from at least 3 months ago.
Search and download an older driver from the link below.
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx

– Under "Windows Driver Type", leave "DCH" selected.
– Under "Recommended/Beta", leave "Recommended/Certified" selected.

You will need to use DDU again to remove the current driver. I suggest disconnecting from the internet during the entire procedure.

If the BSOD occurs again after doing this, please send the minidump created by it. Click on the "Reply" button below my reply.
