Solution Steps

  1. 1 Press Windows key + R, type 'eventvwr.msc' and press Enter. In Event Viewer, go to 'Windows Logs' → 'System'. Look for critical errors around the time of the crash. Note the source and event ID. This helps identify the problematic driver.
  2. 2 Press Windows key + X and select 'Device Manager'. Expand categories like 'Display adapters', 'Network adapters', and 'Software devices'. Right-click any device with a yellow exclamation mark and select 'Update driver'. If no updates, visit the manufacturer's website for the latest driver.
  3. 3 Open Command Prompt as administrator (Win+R, type 'cmd', press Ctrl+Shift+Enter). Run 'sfc /scannow' and press Enter. This scans and repairs corrupted system files. After completion, restart.
  4. 4 If the error persists, run 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' in the same Command Prompt. This repairs the system image. After completion, restart and run 'sfc /scannow' again.
  5. 5 If the problem continues, boot into Safe Mode. Press Windows key + R, type 'msconfig', go to 'Boot' tab, check 'Safe boot' and select 'Minimal'. Restart. If the system is stable in Safe Mode, uninstall recently installed software or drivers, then revert to normal boot.
  6. 6 If nothing works, use System Restore: press Windows key + R, type 'rstrui' and follow the wizard to restore to a point before the error.
