I get this annoying bluescreen for no reason from time to time. I've checked online and it said the culprits are most likely my HDD or RAM, but I did system scans and HDD scans with reports saying NO PROBLEM. I also did mem test and the extended one too which took like 2 hours reporting that my RAM had no problems either.

What else can cause this?

please help.

thank you!

EDIT: I know some people ask for minidumps or something so if anyone wants it and examine it for me it will be helpful, but just tell me where it's located.

Thanks again!

a kernel inpage error means a driver needed to load data from storage and it was not able to do so.

this would happen if you unplugged a drive, or the drives data cables were not connecting correctly (bad connection)

-I would start by moving the cables to another port, maybe check the bios and see if there is a hot swap setting for the sata port and enable it.
- I would then check windows core files for corruption. some malware attack your storage drivers and can cause this error. run cmd.exe as an admin, then
sfc.exe /scannow
and confirm that it fixes any corruption found.
if it does not then run this command
dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

if you find a corruption then run malwarebytes scan, some malware just...

if you find a corruption then run malwarebytes scan, some malware just corrupt the files right after you fix them.
if both of these work, then I would update the storage drivers and sata controller driver
if you have a intel CPU use this to update: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=20775
if you use a special SATA chipset you would get the driver from your motherboard vendors website.

if you still have issues, you would want to run tests of your hard drive and check the SMART data
(use crystaldiskinfo.exe to dump the smart data)
