TechClassy diagnostic route
BSOD
Identify the confirmed bug-check family, capture recurrence context, and collect usable crash evidence without guessing a root cause.

MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
Severe memory-management errorWindows stopped because the kernel detected a severe inconsistency in memory management.
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Invalid kernel memory access at a raised IRQLKernel-mode code attempted an invalid or pageable memory access while running at an interrupt level where that access was not allowed.
DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE
Driver did not complete a power-state transitionWindows stopped after a driver failed to complete a required power-management request in time.
DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION
A high-priority kernel task exceeded its time limitWindows detected that a deferred procedure call or interrupt routine ran too long or the system spent too long at an elevated interrupt level.
CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED
A critical Windows process terminatedA process required for Windows to continue safely terminated or became corrupted.
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Invalid reference to nonpaged memoryKernel-mode code referenced invalid memory that should have remained resident and valid.
INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE
Windows lost access to the boot volumeWindows could not access the system partition during startup.
KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE
Critical kernel data structure corruptionThe kernel detected corruption of a critical internal data structure and stopped to protect system integrity.
Windows memory dump
Check whether useful crash evidence already existsA small memory dump can preserve bug-check parameters and a limited view of the crash state. It can support diagnosis but does not automatically prove a root cause.
