Hello,

on one of our machines, sometimes the following BSoD occurs about 10 seconds after pressing the power button in order to shut it down. Below is a dump from this morning. It just happened again, and this time, it even failed to create the dump with the message "Physical memory dump FAILED with status 0xC0000185." Any help would be appreciated.

We use this Corsair SSD for the system partition.

Why do you use the power button to shut down? That would be a forced shut down usually. What happens if you shutdown by using that option in the operating system?

Exactly the same. (Edit: Wait, did you mean force shutdown? I've only tried the normal shutdown from the start menu.) The only difference is that it sometimes takes much longer for the system to respond when I use the physical button. And it's not a forced shutdown as far as I can tell, Windows still waits for e.g. notepad if there are unsaved changes.

It would be great if there's some way to find out from the kernel dump what causes these blue screens. I just don't know how to read Windbg's output. E.g. the stack trace seems kind of incomplete. How can I get a full stack trace? The error says "The required data was not placed into memory because of an I/O error", but I don't know which device it tried to read from. I can't even tell what exactly failed, reading from a device or writing to memory.

0xC0000185 = STATUS_IO_DEVICE_ERROR

The I/O device reported an I/O error.

Do you use the latest firmware? Have you checked the SMART values?

[ndh]

I have updated the firmware (didn't check if it wasn't updated already) of the SSD earlier today, and haven't seen a blue screen since. But as far as I know they normally only occur like once a day. I don't know how to check SMART values. So does that mean that it is in fact the SSD that's causing this?

[MagicAndre1981]

I guess it is the SSD.

You can check the SMART values with tools like http://crystalmark.i...fo/index-e.html

[ndh]

Here are the SMART values for both disks.

Here are some benchmark results. Not sure if those parameters make sense.

[MagicAndre1981]

the SMART values seam to be ok. Did you get any new crash after flashing the firmware?

[ndh]

No, not yet. I'm going to report back as soon as I get another one. Thank you all for your help so far!
