Constant BSOD in Windows 10?

Hi all, 

This might be a long shot, but recently I built a PC and installed Windows 10 Pro. What is weird is that randomly I will get a blue screen of death, and it is always KERNAL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE for the stopcode. This will happen a couple times a day, and it is not consistent with the apps I am using (Steam, Chrome, etc.) Something I have noticed is that this will most likely happen if I download something bigger than the average download. For instance, when installing Assassin's Creed IV (Black Flag) from Steam, it crashed. But what concerns me more is that sometimes I will just be working on Chrome and it will crash. I'm not sure if it is a bad driver because after a week I wiped my computer and reinstalled Windows from scratch. It was working fine until recently, but I haven't downloaded anything suspicious at all. Anything on my new PC is on my laptop which is working just fine on Windows 10. 

I ran a RAM test and it came back with no errors. I also took out my GPU and ran the PC like that and it still crashed, so I don't believe hardware is the problem, most likely a bad driver..? I have Geforce Experience downloaded which said that my drivers are up to date. When I tried installing the driver for my GPU from the official Gigabyte website, my computer crashed while it was downloading (KERNAL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE).

If anybody has any help or suggestions they would be much appreciated. 

Thanks

Here are my system specs:

CPU: Intel Core i7-8700k

Motherboard: Asus Prime Z370-A 

RAM: G.Skill Trident Z RGB DDR4-3000 (2x8GB)

GPU: Gigabyte GTX 1070 Ti Gaming 8G

CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken x52

SSD: Samsung 860 evo 500GB

HDD: Seagate 2TB 

PSU: EVGA 750 Watt gold

Case: NZXT H500 (White)

Windows 10 Pro 64 bit

If it is a 3rd party driver issue, Driver Verifier may be of help to us here.

Let it run for 24 hours minimum.

If/when you get a BSOD under D/V, go to \windows\minidump, copy out the files to \Documents (copy the whole \windows\minidump folder); zip it up and upload to a file sharing site.

  • Driver of your hardware is out of date, especially graphics driver.
  • Install incompatible Windows update or program.
  • Virus attack.
  • Boot files get damaged or corrupted.
  • System files corrupted.
  • Bug of Windows 10.
  • BIOS is out of date.

Hi Isaak873 , this may well be caused by your Network device driver, however, to diagnose the underlying issue, I need to analyse your Mini-dump file(s):

Open Windows File Explorer

Navigate to C:\Windows\Minidump

Zip up the contents of that folder

If you have problems zipping those files, copy them out onto your Desktop and zip them from there

Upload the zip file to the Cloud (OneDrive, DropBox . . . etc.)

Then post a link here to the zip file, so we can take a look for you . . .

Hi, 

Thanks for the info. Do you know how I could tell if my BIOS is out of date? Because I can go into it just fine and it works. 

Also I have over 100GB left on the drive Windows is installed on, and I am updated to the latest Windows 10. I am not overclocked. I do not think I have a virus (Never go to shady websites or download anything). Also, is there a way to tell if my CPU is malfunctioning? 

I ran each RAM stick one at a time so I'm pretty sure they are not the problem. Also if there was a problem with my hard disk wouldn't Windows not boot at all?

Hi Isaak873

The minidump file indicates it is your Marvell 802.11n NIC device driver (MRVW24C.sys) which is causing your system crashes

You should go to the support page for your device, then download and install the driver they recommend for that device . . .
