Solution Steps
- 1 Boot into Safe Mode: Restart your PC and press F8 (or Shift + F8) repeatedly before the Windows logo appears. If that doesn't work, use the Windows 11 installation media to boot and select 'Repair your computer' → 'Troubleshoot' → 'Advanced options' → 'Startup Settings' → 'Restart' → press 4 to enable Safe Mode. Safe Mode loads only essential drivers, which can help you diagnose if a third-party driver is causing the issue.
- 2 Check disk health: Open Command Prompt as administrator (Win+X, then select 'Terminal (Admin)'). Run 'chkdsk /f /r C:' (replace C: with your system drive letter). This scans for file system errors and bad sectors. It may require a reboot to complete. This step helps rule out disk corruption as the cause.
- 3 Update or roll back storage drivers: Press Win+X and select 'Device Manager'. Expand 'Disk drives' and 'Storage controllers'. Right-click each device and select 'Update driver' → 'Search automatically for drivers'. If the error started after a recent driver update, right-click the device, select 'Properties' → 'Driver' tab → 'Roll Back Driver'. Outdated or buggy drivers are a common cause of this BSOD.
- 4 Check RAID configuration: If you use RAID, enter the RAID controller BIOS/UEFI during boot (usually by pressing Ctrl+I, Ctrl+R, or F2 during startup). Verify that all disks are recognized and the RAID array is in a healthy state. If a disk has failed, replace it and rebuild the array. A misconfigured or degraded RAID array can trigger this error.
- 5 Run System File Checker and DISM: In an elevated Command Prompt, run 'sfc /scannow' to repair system files. Then run 'DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth' to fix Windows image corruption. These tools can repair underlying system issues that might be affecting the disk driver.
