Hello,
My computer is roughly 8 years old except for the video card that I upgraded back in April to a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Super. For the last couple of weeks, it is randomly freezing.
I'm forced to turn it off and then back on. Once in a while I will get a BSOD.
It is so random that it can crash 3 times in less than an hour and then nothing for few days. Whatever I do, I cannot reproduce a pattern.
I've tested it using mem86, Windows Memory Diagnostic, FurMark and 3D mark with no problem. The CPU and GPU temperatures are all good.
I bought a new SSD 2 weeks ago and re-installed windows 10 but this did not change anything.
When the system freezes, I don't get any error message and no dump file, so I’m unable to get to the root cause of this problem.
For the last BSOD, I checked the dump file and the error code was as follows:
BAD_POOL_CALLER (c2)
The current thread is making a bad pool request. Typically this is at a bad IRQL level or double freeing the same allocation, etc.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000099, Attempt to free pool with invalid address (or corruption in pool header)
Arg2: ffffe483a3ae3da0, Address being freed
Arg3: 0000000000000000, 0
Arg4: 0000000000000000, 0
I’m suspecting that the BSOD and system freezes are related but cannot be sure.
Is it possible to get a dump file from the "simpler" system freeze?
I don’t know if this is a hardware or software issue.
Any help to get to the bottom of this would be definitely appreciated.
I’m running Windows 10 Home (x64) Build 19042.572
CPU is an i5-3570k
GPU is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Super
I have 8 GB of RAM
3 HDD and 1 SSD. Windows is installed on the SSD.
I’m using the latest version of BitDefender.
