I have occasional video crashes.
My Video will go black but retains sound.
Sometimes I get alarm or video freezes and the occasional BSOD.
I Ran Driver Verifier to try to figure out if it's a driver conflict.
But--I'm clueless as to what I'm looking at with the log file. (Using BlueScreenView to look at dump.)
I have a Win7 64bit Ultimate
HDMI 32" tv as monitor
AMD Radeon R7 260X 2gig GDDR5.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • That is not a video driver crash, it's an OS kernel crash. Do you have the latest updates for the OS ?

  • fltmgr.sys is memory management, you have either bad system ram module or the memory on the video card itself is bad is my guess.

  • @Moab The problem here is neither in the OS kernel or in memory management. Fltmgr.sys is a manager, a sort of "wrapper", for file system minifilters. fltmgr.sys gets installed in the stack for every file system driver and then calls out to each registered file system minifilter. The usual cause of a crash in fltmgr.sys is a bad file system minifilter. File system minifilters are used by, for example, the "live scanning" component of e.g. anti-malware software . (fltmgr.sys itself is pretty darned reliable as it's used a LOT). Commented Jul 5, 2018 at 22:53
  • @LliamLliam Can you put your minidump on a public file sharing system and post a link? Commented Jul 5, 2018 at 22:57

The stack indicates that the last non-Microsoft component executed was aswMonFlt.sys. This is a file system minifilter driver, part of an antimalware package by Avast.

Try updating it. If that doesn't help, uninstall it and use something else.

It would be helpful if you could zip up your last half a dozen or so of the minidumps so I could see if they're consistent with this one.
