Multiple BSOD in DWM.exe for Haswell HD4600

[EHans2]

Hello People and THANKS beforehand for the help,

I am at wits end with a BSOD problem. I just bought and assembled a new computer Specs:

Specs (from Piriform Speccy):

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1

CPU: Intel Core i7 4770k @ 3.50 GHzRAM: 8.00 GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 799 MHz (11-11-11-28)Motherboard: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Z870A (Socket 1150)Graphics: Sony TV (1280x720@59Hz) - Connecting HDMI to my TV Intel HD Graphics 4600Storage: 931GB Western Digital WDC WD10EZEX-00BN5A0 ATA DeviceOptical Drives: ASUS DRW-24F1ST a ATA DeviceAudio: Intel Display Audio

I do not that the Intel Audio sometimes shows a disturbing sound effect when using Pandora, like ("brrr" or "bzzz") and you

almost think it is going to BSOD but it doesn't. I never have these BSOD's while using the computer, it is generally overnight

while running CPU intensive Excel and VB macros. During this time, I am not using any computer sound and not connected to

Pandora.

BSoD codes:

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (3b)DRIVER_PAGE_FAULT_IN_FREED_SPECIAL_POOL (d5)I have updated to the latest motherboard BIOS, latest Intel HD4600 drivers, and latest sound card drivers (although I'm using

Intel sound). I do use my Sony TV connected via HDMI as the monitor.

Here are the two related Bug Checks. I had driver verifier on everything in BUG CHECK # 2 and only on non-Microsoft drivers in

BUG CHECK # 1.

Hello EricElRojo,

Thanks for the information and let me help you with this.

It is important to say that the DWM stands for Desktop Windows manager and it is a compositing window manager that gives you all those pretty effects in Windows.

I would like you to uninstall the driver you have and install it again.

You can get it at the following link:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3720&DwnldID=23714 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3720&DwnldID=23714

Besides installing the driver above, run all windows updates and driver updates from the Computer Manufacture. In case you have a video card connected to the system make sure you disconnect it.

[EHans2]

I have a cross-post over on TechNet trying to figure this out...http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/5cc456b4-45c9-48e0-b375-dbd25a0e00b5/bsod-in-dwm-with-intel-haswell-hd4600?forum=w7itprogeneral&prof=required BSOD in DWM with Intel Haswell HD4600

The OS is Windows 7 Ultimate sp1 and all relevant updates are applied. I updated all drivers and utilities for the motherboard from the manufacturers web site. After I went out to Intel's web site and ran their driver auto-verification utility and verified that both the audio and video drivers were up to date. These drivers were equalivalent to the ones you posted. After doing all this yesterday, I reproduced this problem for a third time with driver verifier turned on for almost everything, the analyze -v from the dump is below and these are posted online at

I forgot to add, in response to you question... I have no other video cards on this system. I am using the Intel processor for graphics.

[EHans2]

Still poking around... meeting the limit of my capabilities of solving this problem. Do I need to call Intel to open a case or is this venue sufficient? All BSOD's point to an issue either with Windows or the Intel Graphics driver, not sure which...

I did some poking around in the kernel memory dump, below might be useful
