I get Attempted to Write to Read-Only Memory almost every time I use my computer

* * Duplicate of: I get Attempted to Write to Read-Only Memory almost every time I use my computer (deleted)

When I boot my computer, I can use it for some time and then out of nowhere, I receive a blue screen with Attempted to Write to Read-Only Memory error. I've tried a safe mode with networking but each time I try it I get another blue screen with system thread exception not handled error. I don't understand what might cause those errors. Would appreciate your help.

Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Your minidump files indicate it is the Killer Bandwidth Control driver associated to your network connection that is causing your PC to crash.

Go to the support page for your PC on the manufactures website, then from there download and re-install the version of network drivers they provide.

Thank you Dave for your reply. I'll try to find and update drivers for Killer Bandwidth Control and see if it works.

However, I was wondering, I've checked a few minidump files myself (using WinDbg) and the only thing I saw was ntkrnlmp.exe.
Could you possibly explain what I did wrong?


Another question, hope you don't mind, do you think that Killer Bandwidth Control driver might be the cause for system thread exception not handled error when I tried to run Windows in safe mode with networking?

ntkrnlmp.exe is the main kernel file in Windows and is rarely the cause of the system crashes, it masks the underlying cause of the system crashes.

The drivers you need to install are the network drivers available on the support page for your PC, if you have any difficulty finding the support page, click your Start Button, then just type msinfo and press Enter, please provide a screenshot of the resulting System Information window.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, the update didn't help (I used Driver Easy program for updating the drivers). I've got a new Attempted to Write to Read-Only Memory error.

Here is a new minidump file

That new minidump file did not list anything specific as the cause of that crash.

If you are using a driver updating utility to install your drivers, that is the most likely source of your system crashes, they install incompatible drivers, you should only ever install drivers from the support page for your PC on the manufacturers website, or from Windows updates.

I've only used this program for that specific case as I wasn't able to find the right drivers.

There is nothing specific indicated as the cause of the latest crashes in the new minidump files.

I checked the support page for your motherboard on the Gigabyte website, they do not provide any drivers for Windows 10, they only support your hardware up to Windows 8.

Go to the Intel website to download the Intel Driver and Support Assistant and run that utility, does it find any driver updates that need to be installed?

I've downloaded and run Intel® Driver & Support Assistant (Intel® DSA) (from: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/detect.html).

When I start scanning, it shows the following error: Sorry, something went wrong while trying to scan.

I'm not sure what do to od.
