BSOD after reboot and during regular use. Driver verifier caused immediate BSOD requiring safe mode to use Windows.

Hello,


I'm currently running Windows 10 and I have been getting random BSOD errors for the past month or so. It often occurs after rebooting my PC or returning from sleep mode. It also occurs with random use, but not as frequently.


I've received multiple stop codes on the BSOD, such as:

-MEMORY MANAGEMENT

-PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

-SYSTEM THREAT EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED

-DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL


I decided to run the Driver Verifier utility using a guide found here, and it almost immediately caused the BSOD with the stop code: driver verifier detected violation. What failed: RTKVHD64.sys. I could not launch Windows until I went into safe mode and disabled the driver verifier.


I have used the sfc/ and chkdsk/ commands with 0 errors. My guess is that it's related to a faulty driver, however I'm not sure how to pinpoint which one.


I have provided the few minidump files that I had, and also the large memory dump file. I believe the driver verifier error was only saved to the memory dump file.
