Having BSOD every time my PC wakes from "Sleep". If I disable my Nvidia driver (358.50), the problem stops, I can then wake form sleep without issue. Also, if I disable sleep, no issues. I have done the following.

  • 1. Ran Prime95, doesn't seem to be any issues.
    2. Ran MemTest86 from boot, no issues after 1 hr or so.
    3. Let Windows Update install all updates.
    4. Checked Device Manager, no unknown driver issues.
    5. Tried waking from "Sleep" in Safe Mode, no issue. Probably since driver was disabled in safe mode.
    6. Ran with only (1) stick of RAM, same issue.

I feel like since I can stop the problem by disabling the Nvidia driver that it must be a driver issues, but I am not sure. Maybe it's a hidden PSU problem? I don't feel like I had this issue when I first got Windows 10, maybe it's a change that has been made to the recent Nvidia drivers?

It seems to always be the same "ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY" error and always be pointed to ntoskrnl.exe.

Thanks Laptop_Nerd,

I tried uninstalling the Nvidia driver, as you mentioned, just a few days ago; I forgot to mention that in my original post. I previously tried a manual uninstall through Device Manger and I also tried using the DDU uninstaller. After each, I rebooted and re-installed the latest driver, which is 358.50.

However, I hadn’t yet tried changing the Power Management through the Nvidia Control Panel. Per your recommendation, I tried the following:

Nvidia Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Global Settings >
Change “Power Management“ to Prefer Maximum Performance rather than Adaptive.

I then put my PC to sleep, upon awakening…BSOD. See below.
