I'm getting this BSOD loop with error message MEMORY_MANAGEMENT. I have nailed down the problem to atikmdag.sys (AMD Display Driver) , it is corrupted or something.
If I rename atikmdag.sys to atikmdag.old via cmd, my laptop is able to boot up but I can't play games because the graphics driver didn't load.
If I reinstall or update to a new or old AMD driver, windows goes BSOD during the update.
I've tried using DDU for a clean uninstall, but windows still BSODs after I try to reinstall my driver.
Some info that might/might not be relevant:
BSOD first happened when trying to start Visual Studio after updating it. Doing a system restore to before the update does not fix the problem (causes BSOD right after system restore)
I have used OOSU10 to disable alot of windows 10 functionality (such as updates, defender etc.). Don't know whether it should affect this or not.
The various BSOD messages I have gotten are:
THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (the first time it happened)
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (most common message)
BAD_POOL_ERROR
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
I hope my graphics card is not damaged.
