Solved Frequent BSOD - Event 41 and Event 46 (volmgr)

nked · May 24, 2024

Hello all,

Getting a lot of BSODs recently especially when I try to play games. I tried reinstalling Windows 11 to no effect.

Windows ver:
Windows 11 Home
Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3593)

Attaching all logs below.
1. Tuneup
2. HD Tune (Error Scan, Health, Benchmark)
3. Sea Tools (Windows Long Generic Test)

Please perform the following steps:

1) Turn off Windows Driver Verifer (WDV)

Enable and Disable Driver Verifier in Windows 10

2) Uninstall and reinstall

mtkbtfilterx64 MTK BT Filter Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\mtkbtfilterx.sys

If the computer is able to use only Ethernet then uninstall all Mediatek drivers:

mtkbtfilterx64 MTK BT Filter Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\mtkbtfilterx.sys
mtkwlex Mediatek PCI LE Extensible Wireless LAN Card Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\mtkwl6ex.sys

3) If HD Tune testing was performed then post a share link

4) Open administrative command prompt and copy and paste: chkdsk /b /v

C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /b /v
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

Type: y

Reboot as needed.

5) For any new BSOD post a new V2 share link into the newest post

6) Report unexpected shutdowns and restarts without BSOD

7) After the next unexpected shutdown with or without BSOD plan to place the computer into continuous safe mode (shift + restart)

Hi zbook,

Thanks for this!

1) I've turned off WDV - immediately I received a BSOD while my laptop was restarting
2) Uninstalled the BT driver and Windows automatically reinstalled it after restarting
3) HD TuneUp logs

4) Completed chkdsk with the suggested parameters.
5) Will stress test for new BSOD by launching some games

Chkdsk /b /v results were good.

Is there Ethernet available?

Hi zbook,

For drivers and BIOS, are you referring to this? FX506HM - Support

Yes ethernet is available.

zbook · May 25, 2024

The link in post #8 displayed the most up to date BIOS:

BIOS Update for Windows
Version 313
10.25 MB
2022/08/30

The installed BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends International, LLC. FX506HM.315, 3/3/2023
SMBIOS Version 3.3

Where was the installed BIOS from?

nked · May 25, 2024

I don't recall updating the BIOS myself manually. It's likely through MyAsus or Armoury Crate.

zbook · May 25, 2024

Please open a support ticket with Asus for BIOS support..

The misbehaving driver was the same driver (mtkbtfilterx.sys) in the two collected minidump files.

Turn off Wifi > use only Ethernet > for new BSOD post a new V2 share link

For continued BSOD plan to run the computer continuously in safe mode.

Code:

mtkbtfilterx.sys Wed Apr 12 00:42:00 2023 (643644A8)

Hi zbook,

Unfortunately still experienced BSOD despite disabling bluetooth and wifi connectivity.

New V2: SCPC-(2024-05-26_07-51-03).zip

zbook · May 25, 2024

Please place the computer in continuous safe mode.

nked · May 25, 2024

Do I use my computer as normal in safe mode or should I be running some tests?

zbook · May 25, 2024

Whatever you want to do in safe mode is fine.

For any unexpected shutdown and restart with or without BSOD post a new V2 share link.

Run safe mode continuously for 3 days and post new V2 share links.

nked · May 25, 2024

Thanks zbook.

The BSODs typically only appear when I open games - freezes and then BSOD while the game is open. In safe mode, I'll only be able to run basic activities like spreadsheets etc and that typically doesn't cause BSODs.

There's also a new symptom - while restarting, BIOS did not detect my SSD. I was just stuck in BIOS with no boot option until I shut off my laptop for 5-10 mins and then I was able to boot into Windows. Sounds like a hardware/heat problem?

The laptop is also my daily computer so running in safe mode for 3 days consecutively may be a little difficult. Any way we can further diagnose without going into safe mode?

zbook · May 25, 2024

The longer the duration of continuous safe mode the better the testing conditions.

nked · Jun 1, 2024

Hi zbook,

I've not encountered any BSOD after testing with a friend's wifi/bt card for the past 3 days. Decided to replace my old MT7921 wifi card after reading extensively about numerous issues. Appreciate the help in narrowing down the card's driver issues. Will be marking this solved.

zbook · Jun 1, 2024

Nice.

Please post a V2 post wifi card replacement.
