Referenced Memory Error

Hi,

I've been receiving an error occasionally when I wake my laptop from sleep (please see attached image). It reads opengl: Windows - application error. The instruction at 0x00007FFAC3CC1C42 referenced memory at 0X0000000000000060. The memory could not be written.

I have tried running sfc /scannow, DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth and Chkdsk /r but still getting error. I have all available updates installed. Could someone please advise what I could try next?

Thanks,

Eimear

The opengl is related to the graphic card driver, there is a new Bios version released on 01 Jan 2023 that has fixes for the AMD graphic card incompatibility and a new graphic card driver version released on 01 Jan 2023 on the Lenovo website. Downloading and installing the new versions from these links should fix this problem.

I'm sorry for the mistake, the release date on the Lenovo website is different but is the same Bios version that you are using, you can ignore it.

The update of the graphic card driver fixed the problem?

Hello,

The error doesn't happen all the time so it may be a few days before I know if the graphic card driver fixed the problem. Thanks so much for your help, really appreciate it 😁

I did research on my own pc and narrowed this error to user login. Basically if you're not logged on the pc with a Microsoft account it would throw this error.

So just recently i updated my pc from the windows update and found myself encountering this same exact error when either gaming or shutting my pc down.

At first i thought my ram was going bad, later after running the Memory Diagnostic Tool and all seemed well with no corrupt files or memory issues I did some software debugging.

During the debugging process i was able to find the culprit that pointed me towards explorer.exe, i was like that cant be cause its the file folder. Upon digging more deeply i encountered a certain module that uses explorer.exe, msedge.exe and winlogon.exe, all these .exe have in common is running with the same module.
