Kernel security check error

Uncle Pierre

Hope somebody can help here. Not sure whether to post in this general thread or in the Windows one, so apologies if in the wrong place, and please move if necessary. Also, have searched previous posts/threads, but can't find anything recent.

Basically I've regularly been getting a "kernel security check error" BSOD lately. Am not hugely computer-minded (if that's even a word), but have run checks such as those outlined on these sort of pages:

http://techgenix.com/kernel-security-check/

Basically checks for memory problems, system file checker tool, driver verifier, and scan hard disk.

One of them (honestly can't remember which) did report at one stage last week that one problem was found and fixed, and I hoped that'd be the end of it. But lately it's been happening again - once yesterday, and again this morning when I first turned on the computer.

Anybody got any ideas for what else I might be able to do?

Thanks in advance.

You don't say which operating system, exactly. Tom's Hardware has these pointers for Windows 10:

Thanks for the reply. It's Windows 10 all right, and that Tom's Hardware page that you link to is actually the same one I linked to myself, so have already been through the things suggested there. Several times!!

Oh, so it is. Apologies, that might teach me to read peoples' posts properly...
