Hey guys this is one of my first times writing on a forum so please forgive me if i do something wrong. Anyway for about a year now i have had this problem where when i boot up my computer and sign in to windows my computer always crashes then upon the reboot it is fine and the desktop loads normally(crash only occurs after i sign in to my desktop). I Installed a SSD a while back and i have not really got to experience the faster boots since the initial boot always crashes. I recently got this software called Whocrashed but the reports don't really help me but it may help one of you to solve this. i also attached the event from event viewer. Any help is greatly appreciated.


Specs not included on attached file: 2 GTX 970's G1 gaming edition, EVGA supernova 850 G2, 2tb HDD, 240gb Kingston SSD

That sounds like a good idea but i have a concern. On the link it says "Warning

Apps you installed from websites and DVDs will be removed. Apps that came with your PC and apps you installed from the Windows Store will be reinstalled. Windows puts a list of removed apps on your desktop after refreshing your PC."

Does that mean everything i have downloaded from steam and programs like chrome and spotify will be removed? I am not sure if those are considered "apps"

Yes, programs before point are removed but luckily for you windows automatically creates a restore point every time you install anything, so worst case scenario you might have to re-install one program. And no, as far as I know if your games are on steam and the steam folder is in another drive then those games wont go away. Usually the case is that you might have to re-install nothing simply because windows decided to create a restore point for a very simple change.

Choose the most recent restore point just before your problems started.

The problem is that this has been happening for a very long time so i cant exactly say when it started. i think i might be able to see if i scroll all the way down in the event logs? xD

EDIT: i am trying to compress the dmp files but it says access denied... google is not helping me to resolve the situation :(
EDIT 2: i finally got one of the dmp files from yesterday heres the link: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=8CE2975B5C4016C!2252&authkey=!ALGrrjrbK3UPamk&ithint=file%2czip

Re-read your post, you seemed to have installed an SSD to get faster boots right? Well did you have your windows installation on your SSD, otherwise it wont work.

People do say that you get faster boots off an SSD (as far as I've heard) but you must have your windows installed on the SSD for that.

Do you have an antivirus? Do you have more than one? Conflicting antiviruses and unyielding programs usually lead to the error you mentioned. Many people have had installations of AVG and Malwarebytes which caused the issue.

EDIT:

Please follow instructions for memory test and everything else done here

Update all your drivers.

Uninstall programs you dont need and dont download anything unnecessary (like the whocrashed you mentioned before), you may be at risk of malware infection as 70% of these programs are fraudulent and used to prey on unsuspecting users.

Try every single thing to see if it works.

Windows is installed on my SSD(it was a clean install). I do have malwarebytes but i am unaware if i have AVG. I have updated all my drivers even mobo drivers. I just uninstalled Whocrashed and ran malwarebytes to make sure it didnt give me a virus. i also have one dump file uploaded to OneDrive: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=8CE2975B5C4016C!2252&authkey=!ALGrrjrbK3UPamk&ithint=file%2czip

Dude,

Many many many people (not saying you have the same problem but it is a point to note as it is very common and you gotta try everything) reported that malwarebytes was causing a problem with this particular driver, please uninstall it and install something else like the ESET Smart Security 30 day trial in the meanwhile(as a replacement till you get something else) and see if there's a change.

Trust me bro i have read all there is on the entire first page of google. i understand that a lot of people have the issue but i have not found a solution for a long time (thats why my last resort is to ask here). the errors were happening all of last week as usual and thats when i did not have malwarebytes installed. I just reinstalled it literally minutes ago after you said that Whocrashed could be malicious. Thanks for the help though. Any luck with the dump files? i could up load the next one but for some reason i could not upload all 50 of them at once because it said "Access denied" when i tried to compress them so i guess i have to do it one by one.

EDIT: should i install that ESET thing(and then uninstall malwarebytes) even though the error was occuring when malware bytes was uninstalled?
 
Uninstall daemontools, this can cause this stop error

It's possible NFC_Driver.sys is causing this too. Looks like this belongs to ASUS Gamefirst. I would uninstall Gamefirst (this is some kind of internet utility)

Look here. Same stop error here and tcpip.sys is involved

2nd to last post and last post

I would uninstall AI suite, you dont need any programs this installs. Most of them can crash windows too

thanks, i will uninstall both. unfortunately i will have to wait a day or two to see if it worked since some days the error does not occur. and it never occurs when i simply restart the computer.

EDIT: lol yeah gamefirst came with my mobo and i didnt mind it much but i found out that it prioritizes internet to games or something like that. i think i did read somewhere that tcpip.sys is an internet related thing. i hope that may fix the issue

EDIT 2: I like AI suite because its the only way i know how to manually increase the speed of my CPU fans. i am hesitant to uninstal it but i will if the error consists. im not going to lie its pretty cool how you can see what i have from that file. i really hope you cant hack me or steal my ID xD

im not entirely sure if i have to speed it up but the only reason i do is because it goes to the high 90%-100% utilization when i am playing gta v on ultra while watching a twitch stream on source. idk i have a h105 on it and i am reading up on overclocking cpu. i think it helps when it is at that high of utilization

Nah it never crashed, the stream usually stops though or studders (I guess something has to give) the stream usually won't do that if I turn down the quality a bit though because source quality can be taxing on the CPU apparently . once I feel comfortable that I know what I'm doing I want to overclock it a little bit so I can still watch the stream on source
