Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time. I also used WhoCrashed and it states: 'The crash took place I'm assuming it's a driver issue though but I can't seem to find any more information on what's causing this. I've done a clean install, updated bios, updated drivers to no avail. I'm using BlueScreenView to check the minidumpsĪnd it claims the crashes are caused by ntoskrnl.exe and caused by address: ntoskrnl.exe+8277e or ntoskrnl.exe 16c4c0. Command used in tutorial (copy and paste below text) Windows Registry Editor Version 5. They seem to happen at complete random whether there's low or high stress on my computer, just turned on or been on for a few hours etc. In this tutorial I will address the high memory usage and compressed memory leak that may be occurring with the ntoskrnl.exe process on your Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 10 device. I've been having crashes fairly frequently over the last month.
