I know it's a long shot finding an easy solution, but I'm running the RTM build and I've been getting green screens at random times like while I'm type something. Anyone know what the stop code means?

"RTM" build... which is is likely not. Probably a cumulative update to go along with it.

 

Either way, it could be your anti-virus causing the issue or a driver from the looks of the error.

Hmm, I thought it was pretty much agreed to be rtm build.

 

I don't run antivirus aside from Windows Defender.

 

Thinking I may just live with it till October update and clean install.

You may want to try Bluescreen view or whocrashed to see if it can tell you which file crashed the system

Upon looking online people are referencing display and wifi drivers causing that error so you may want to look at those too. But do blue screen view or whocrashed first and see if it can narrow down which system file BSOD'ed the system.

While bluescreen view requires no installation, i'm more of  fan of Whocrashed due to it being easier to read.

Are these web based apps where you go to the website or are they actual downloadable apps?

 

I clean installed the new nVIdia driver last night but still get the green screens. It seems totally random too. Like, I was typing a post here on Neowin and the screen went green with the same message. Nothing on my machine has changed in months aside from the Insider updates. I have a new SSD coming in, so maybe it's time for a clean install?

If you think the issue is with hardware itself and not just the drivers then you could run benchmark tests to stress different parts of the system and see if a crash happens?  Like if you think it's the SSD/HDD or if it's RAM etc, run tests for those that push them at 100% and see what happens.

 

If you get a crash in the middle of the test, run it a few more times and see if it happens again, then you'll have a good idea I'd say.   In some cases the GSOD/BSOD error codes are kind of generic and just say "something" stopped working but not exactly what.

Good idea. However, I was running low on storage so I bought a 1TB 970 Pro m2. I clean installed from the latest insider iso and haven't had a crash yet. I wonder if I should not reinstall much and clean install the October update...

They are downloaded.  I too am a big fan of WhoCrashed, because it (generally) tells you what and where the issue lies. Another program that I love for driver installation is Snappy Driver Installer (SDI) it will analyze your system and find drivers that are newer then you have installed and offer to install them for you, but a word of warning, ignore it's recommendation to install Nvidia drivers, the ones it wants to install are generally beta.

      I've been using MWB Premium for a number of years so that along with Windows updates and updated browser should be fine. Thanks for that.

      For some reason I suddenly have the urge to go shopping at Sears.

      So I did a quick test based on 3+ different public instances from the litany at searx.space ... and it spins everything rather differently. It seems that SearXNG is a meta-search engine (queries multiple search indexes rather than only Google's or Bing's or Wikipedia's or Reddit's) that operates in two modes: > public instances ... each instance opens itself to outside users who piggyback on its cached search history; this instance's own identity becomes known/tracked but end-users are hidden similar to an anonymization proxy; this instance's querying of major search indexes may be API based [rated limited, blocked, etc.]). > private instances ... your private install/instance that itself queries multiple (configurable) search indexes of crawled web content; every major Search Engine associates all traffic to your private instance (so your traffic is tracked via network usages) but client-side tracking (your own browser/computer specs) is flushed because it's a "server" doing the querying rather than your browser. My test asked the same 1 question to the 3+ engines and they all returned vastly different results: some had CAPTCHA failures against Google, some had failures against Wikipedia, and the actual results were also different -- some had auto-complete enabled, others returned a wikipedia highlighted excerpt despite the Wikipedia failure (hinting at results being cached from previous keyword matching), and others just gave an Are-You-Human non-CAPTCHA loop before returning random results. So this begs the caveat: Search query results will vary based on which instance is used because every instance queries the other search indexes separate (and thus its results are influenced on that instance's aggregate search history and index-access limitations). The major distinctions for SearXNG versus DDG or Brave: > The search UI is 'untracked' since no UI trackers are baked-in which would phone home or lay cookies into your browser (for DDG/Brave usage stats), > There is no 'crawler' that canvasses the Internet to discover fresh content (it leaves that to the major search indexes), > Queries multiple search indexes ("meta-search engine") based on the configurations and usage history of the server instance, > Privacy-friendly due to its ability to shield user tracking via standing up a non-local server instance connectable to major VPN providers: queries would all appear to come from general VPN/Proxy providers rather than your private instance (whether installed locally or on your own VPS in the cloud). PS: I've previously come across specialized search engines of this nature that indexes searches across media assets like YT, OF, etc. SearXNG seems to be a good backbone...if the rate-limiting/captcha/etc. issues were resolved.
