How To Fix BSOD Error Codes


How To Fix BSOD Error Codes 

Blue screen of Death (BSOD) is known as the STOP error. When Windows suffers from a serious error of non-recoverable nature, it stops immediately so as to prevent damage to the data or hardware. STOP error includes a STOP code which can be used to diagnose and possibly fix the problem.

BSOD error How To Fix BSOD Error Codes

List of few BSOD errors are given below

Stop 0x000000CE or DRIVER_UNLOADED_WITHOUT_CANCELLING_PENDING_OPERATIONS

It indicates that before exiting, a driver failed to cancel pending operations.

Fix
  • It might occur because of installing a faulty device driver/system device. Disabling or removing drivers (name is mentioned in the STOP message) resolves the issue. Using updated software also resolves the issue.
Stop 0×00000050 or PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

This indicates that requested data was not in the memory. It happens when a reference to an invalid system memory address is done. Defective memory or incompatible software might cause this error.

Fix
  • If hardware is added recently, remove and replace it to determine if it was contributing to the problem or not.
  • If a faulty driver/system service is installed. Always use updated drivers and software to avoid this error.
Stop 0x0000009F or DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE

This indicates that a driver is in an inconsistent power state. 

Fix
  • It can occur after installing faulty applications/drivers/system services. We need to uninstall the particular application (name is mentioned in the STOP message)/ roll back the particular driver/ use updated version of the software.
Stop 0xBE or ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY

It indicates that a driver has attempted to write to read-only memory

Fix
  • It occurs because of installation of a faulty device driver/system services/firmware.  Try to use updated version of software to resolve this problem. If the driver name is mentioned in the STOP message, we have to remove the driver or have to use a possible update of it.
Stop 0X0000002E or DATA_BUS_ERROR

It indicates a system memory parity error. It is caused due to defective or failed RAM/incompatibility of memory hardware. Also when a device driver attempts to access an address in the range of 0x8xxxxxxx that does not exist, this error occurs. It can also indicate that virus or some other problem caused hard disk damage.

Fix
  • This error is mainly due to defective/malfunctioning memory hardware like memory modules, video adapter RAM. Remove and replace the hardware to find out its contribution to the error.
  • Hard Disk corruption is also a cause of this problem
  • Cracks, scratches or defective component on the motherboard can also cause this problem. Repair the motherboard.
  • It can also happen due to installation of faulty drivers or system services. If file name is provided in the error code, remove that driver. Also use updated version of software’s.
Stop 0x000000D1 or Driver_IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

It indicates that the system has attempted for an access to a page able memory by using a kernel process IQRL that was too high. Improper addresses used by driver’s causes this error.

Fix
  • It might occur because of installing a faulty device driver/system device. Disabling or removing drivers (name is mentioned in the STOP message) resolves the issue. Using updated software also resolves the issue.
Stop 0x000000EA or THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER

It is caused by a display driver making the system to pause indefinitely. Over here the display driver waits for the video hardware to enter an idle state. All this indicate a hardware problem with the video driver.

 Fix
  • It might occur because of installing a faulty device driver/system device. Disabling or removing drivers (name is mentioned in the STOP message) resolves the issue. Using updated software also resolves the issue.
