Everytime I boot up my pc it lasts about 1-2 minutes before it blue screens with an error and automatically restarting. But everytime it crashes the code is different and I don't know how to fix it.

Help me please!!

Regards, Jay

download memtest86 on another PC and use it to create a bootable USB. You don't need windows to run this, test your stick out and see if you get any errors. Need to run it at least 8 times. The only score you want is 0. Anything higher will explain why you keep getting random errors. If you get any, you need to replace ram.

If you find no errors, how long can it run in safe mode before crashing?
to get to safe mode, go to settings/update & security/recovery
under advanced startup, choose restart now
this loads a blue menu on restart
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up options
hit the restart button
choose a safe mode...

Can you follow option one here
and then do this step below: Small memory dumps - Have Windows Create a Small Memory Dump (Minidump) on BSOD

that creates a file in c windows/minidump after the next BSOD
copy that file to documents
upload the copy from documents to a cloud server and share the link here and someone with right software to read them will help you fix it :)

See if its same in safe mode
go to settings/update & security/recovery
under advanced startup, click restart now
this loads a blue menu at start up
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up options
hit the restart button
choose a safe mode (it doesn't matter which) by using number associated with it.
Pc will restart and load safe mode

depending on which BSOD you getting, the PC may work fine here.. you can't run anything big but it would at least point to it being software.

There is a BIOS update for your system.
You currently have version: 3016 (12/27/2016)
The latest available version is: 3607 (2018/03/28)
Note: Updating your BIOS can be risky. Never try it when you might lose power (lightning storms, recent power outages, etc).

I can't help you with this. Wait for additional replies. Good luck.

wdfilter.sys appears to be Windows Defender mini filter driver - if you use defender, run windows update and see if any new updates.
wuaucit.exe is Windows Update AutoUpdate Client
werfault = Windows Error reporting

these aren't normal things to crash. the 3rd error clearly caused the next 2

have a look here and update your LAN drivers - https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/H110M-K/HelpDesk_Download/

Can you get into safe mode? Does PC crash in there?

if safe mode works, see if this finds anything

right click start button
choose powershell (admin)
type SFC /scannow and press enter
once its completed, copy/paste this command into same window:
Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth and press enter
SFC fixes system files, second command cleans image files, re run SFC if it failed to fix all files and restart PC

It does crash, but it takes longer

How long has it been crashing like this? Did it only start in April?

Try updating to the latest BIOS, all of them improve stability and it could be one of your drivers was updated and needs the newer bios.

the oldest and only driver i would think could be causing crashes is your VPN driver since its from 2014.

it shouldn't crash in safe mode if its caused by a 3rd party driver and yet I am tempted to ask you to run driver verifer as no actual drivers have been mentioned yet

Try running driver verifer, just read the instructions carefully. It is part of win 10 designed to find misbehaving drivers. It will cause BSOD, that is its job since it tests drivers.

note: sometimes this will put you into a boot loop so it helps to have a win 10 installer handy to get out again. Download the Windows 10 media creation tool and use it to make a win 10 installer on USB
Also helps to run system restore before hand to create a restore point to roll back to if necessary.
Once it bsod, upload the minidump file and we see what it shows us.

The instructions to stop it looping are in the link above I will show u anyway
change boot order so USB is first, hdd second
boot from installer
on screen after languages, choose repair this pc, not install.
choose troubleshoot
choose advanced
choose start up options
hit the restart button
choose a safe mode (it doesn't matter which) by using number associated with it.
Pc will restart and load safe mode
Now open command Prompt
type verifer /reset and press enter
restart PC

This page:

Leads to this:

You may want to print it out and study it before even attempting to update your BIOS.

You probably have to unzip the downloaded file to a USB flash drive first. It should be a .CAP file on the USB drive.

If you have problems during the update, do NOT shut off your system or reboot. Call ASUS and ask for help.

you can't do much in safe mode but it might give an indication if problem is drivers (still) or hardware. If it crashes in 2 minutes as usual, need to look at it being hardware I think.
