Solved BSOD - Event ID 41 + volmgr 162

Ryan915 · Apr 7, 2023

I'm at my wits end with this. I have no idea what is going on but for the past week I have been getting the same errors causing my pc to freeze and then restart. The screen hangs, I can't move the mouse and then blue screen pops up then PC will restart.

This is always followed by these errors in my event viewer.

I've been having this exact issues for 7 days straight. Each BSOD is followed by the same two errors. volmgr 162 and Critical Kernel-Power 41. This just started happening and I've had this PC since August of 2022.

Critical Kernel-Power -

Any help here would be greatly appreciated. I just don't know what to do to fix it. I've tried running various scans and stuff from Google searches of people having similar issues.

Hello and welcome to the forum. @zbook or one of the other members experienced in analyzing log files will be with you shortly. In the meantime, I noticed you are running Nvidia driver 531.41
Going through iBUY Power driver support. I was taken to Nvidia where I was given driver version 531.58 dated 4/4/23 for your GPU. This is a hotfix driver package replacing driver package 531.41 dated 3/23/23

4/4/23 This is the statement copied from Nvidia
GeForce Hotfix display driver version 531.58 is based on our latest Game Ready Driver 531.41.

The hotfix addresses the following issues:

[The Last of Us Part 1] Game may randomly crash during gameplay on GeForce RTX 30 series GPUs [4031676]
Assassin’s Creed Origins may have stability issues when using 531.18. [4008770]
[Resident Evil 4 Remake] Corruption in the game when FXAA enabled [4051903]

.........
To be sure, these Hotfix drivers are beta, optional and provided as-is. They are run through a much abbreviated QA process. The sole reason they exist is to get fixes out to you more quickly. The safest option is to wait for the next WHQL certified driver. But we know that many of you are willing to try these out.
This statement can be found in its entirety here. https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5455

Thank you I am installing that hotfix now. I really appreciate any help I get here, this is such a frustrating issue.

Also I am noticing this happening in my event viewer. I am not sure if it's related at all but I have these in here, they are numbered from Processor 0 all the way to 23 and they have the same message about minimum and maximum performance percentages.

--> Tuneup Log

Nvidia Broadcast - Uninstalled (I noticed this was installed at the exact time these BSOD errors were occuring)
Nvidia GPU drivers / Physx - Uninstalled and reinstalled.

The tuneup plus results were fine.

Monitor the computer for stability / instability using Reliability Monitor:

Reliability Monitor is the Best Windows Troubleshooting Tool You Aren't Using

When it comes to hidden gems in Windows, nothing beats the Reliability monitor tool, hidden behind a link inside of another tool that you don't use either.

So are we thinking the issue was with that Nvidia Broadcast software or my Graphics Card Driver? I will continue to monitor the situation. I'm also nervous about that other issue I mentioned that maybe is related to my problem. The Kernel-Processor-Power Event ID 55 thing.

zbook · Apr 7, 2023

There were two misbehaving drivers and they were reported to be uninstalled and reinstalled.

There was one misbehaving driver causing hangs or freezes.

One of the drivers causing the BSOD also caused the hangs and freezes.

There was a WHEA event so you can monitor the computer for stability / instability to see if there is any underlying malfunctioning hardware.

If there are no recurrent BSOD that will complete the troubleshooting.

Ryan915 · Apr 8, 2023

It's been a full 24+ hours with no issues. Haven't had any BSOD or freezes. I believe @zbook 's solution to uninstall and reinstall my graphics card driver and Nvidia Broadcast solved my issue. I am going to continue to monitor it but it's looking good. I haven't gone this long without a crash in a full week.
