browser occasionally displays a status_access_violation error.

SR_life — Tue, 21 Feb 2023 05:21:11 GMT

The browser frequently displays a status_access_violation error message and occasionally crashes abruptly.
This issue can be replicated in Edge, Chrome, and Firefox.
Usually, refreshing the page resolves the issue, but it is particularly easy to trigger on certain webpages (e.g. https://www.nvidia.com/zh-tw/geforce/drivers/).

I have tried using Task Manager > Details > changing the browser's "Set affinity" option and tested each one individually.
I found that the issue only occurs when CPU #8 is selected. However, I tested running other software with CPU #8 and they all worked normally.

Attached is a testing video: https://youtu.be/GnU8THjUvWM
From 12 seconds onwards, there is lag until the error message appears at 30 seconds.

So the Intel support engineers can have more information about your system, Please download and run the Intel System Support Utility (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25293/Intel-System-Support-Utility-for-Windows- ) for Windows. Select all data categories and then have it generate a report. Next, have the tool Save the report to a text file (don't try to use the Submit capability; it doesn't work). Finally, using the Drag and drop here or browse files to attach dialog below the edit box for the body of your response post, upload and attach this file to the response post.

Hello SR_life,

Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities.

I am sorry that you are having issues with your Intel® Core™ i9-13900K Processor, I will be glad to assist you.

Please consider the following:

When did you start receiving this error message? Was there any hardware change or driver/OS update before the issue started?
Although you have tested the processor with other software, have you also noticed any performance issues overall?
Make sure the browsers are updated to the latest version.

I noticed that your memory modules are running at 2400 MHz, which it translates to 4800 MT/s, and that speed is over the processor specifications (Up to DDR4 3200 MT/s, according to https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/230496/intel-core-i913900k-processor-36m-cache-up-to-5-80-ghz.html).

Before testing the processor in order to check its health, make sure to set the memory speed under the processor specifications. Once this is done, please run a test using the Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/15951/19792/intel-processor-diagnostic-tool.html?) and let me know of the outcome.

Best regards,

Steven G.

I bought a brand new computer in January of this year, and encountered this problem when I installed the OS for the first time. So I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled Windows 10, but the problem persisted. (bios setting all default)

Many thanks for the information provided.

Upon investigating, this error message could show up when you have too many extensions or caused by the last extension installed, so please try disabling the extensions or at least the last extension installed, if any.

It also could happen on web pages filled with banners/advertisements.

I would still like to investigate about the Core #8 situation, but please confirm the information above and let me know about it.

Best regards,

Steven G.

Intel Customer Support Technician.

SR_life — Sat, 25 Feb 2023 05:25:26 GMT

I don't have any extensions installed

I am able to reproduce the same issue in Edge, Chrome, and Firefox,
and the common factor is that the issue is resolved and the browser functions normally and stably when CPU #8 is disabled.

Many thanks for your response.

I will investigate further on this, and as soon as I have an update, I will let you know.

I conducted some advanced tests, attempting to disable the first Efficient-core from the BIOS (which I assume is CPU #8 based on its affinity).
However, the issue still persisted.

Then I proceeded to try activating a single Efficient-core at a time, running a total of 16 tests.,but the results were the same.

Finally, I disabled all Efficient-cores and the issue no longer occurred.
These tests are provided for reference.

Hello SR_life,

Many thanks for your patience and information provided.

Upon investigation, this issue is not caused by a CPU, and there is no reason the CPU can cause the problem. Please take a look at this page (https://www.makeuseof.com/fix-status-access-violation-error-microsoft-edge/#:~:text=Status_Access_Violation%20is%20a%20common%20error,registering%20for%20memory%20without%20permission).

Have you seen this same issue on Windows 11? If not already, please try with Windows 11.

As well, could you please provide more details about how you figured out the CPU#8 is causing the issue? Excluding the information that you have kindly already provided us.

Best regards,

Steven G.

No, I am not considering upgrading to Windows 11 due to my job requirements.
I have noticed that it's not just the browser, but other software like "Line" or "PotPlayer"also experience abnormal termination.
However, the frequency of these incidents is low, and I cannot find a consistent way to reproduce them.
Later, I used "Process Lasso" tool to turn off all CPU #8 for all processes, and everything has been working normally since then.

About a month ago, I started getting status_access_violation errors every few minutes in both Chrome and Edge. I have an MSI motherboard, and I tried all kinds of things to solve this problem. The solution I found is this:

I disabled Game Boost in the MSI Bios and all of the errors stopped.

As far as I can tell. the Game Boost function changes the CPU turbo ratio offset to +1 providing a minor overclock when playing games. Disabling Game Boost sets the turbo ratio offset back to +0 and so far has completely eliminated the status_access_violation errors I was getting.
