Can Factorio cause a bluescreen?

[hoody1983]

Hi guys,

I just to play Factorio on my laptop for last 4 years with no issues (mainy vanilla).
2 weeks ago I've upgraded my OS to Win10Pro from the factory Win8.1

Since that, my issues started and when run Factorio, I have had a deadscreen several times.
I have reinstalled Factorio, removed all modification and even deleted saves thinking, that there is a glitch somewhere, but no result.

The laptop works perfectly untill I run Factorio via Steam.
Today I have a slightly different message of error so I took a screenshot (attached).
Also here is a list of mods I am currently using, all up to date and I had no issues with them until now.
And lastly, I'm attaching a log file.

I was trying to google the issue, run RAM check and disk check.
Also all drivers are up to date so not sure is really Factorio causing the issue but it only happens when the game is running.

Any chance you could help me please?

Getting bluescreens means that there is something wrong with your system, either OS, hardware or driver.

Many thanks for the suggestion, I've reinstalled my Win10 to eliminate any OS errors.

Now I have a brand fresh installation, no additional apps, just pure Win10, Steam and Factorio.
No bluescreens anymore but the same error message as on the screen above.

Can't see any errors with harddrive, drivers, etc.

Any chance that might be something wrong in BIOS?
Apart of crashing Factorio, the entire system works good.

If you post more logs with crashes (at least 5, you can rename them so they won't be overwritten) I can check if those crashes are unrelated which would confirm that this is a hardware issue.

I have only managed to get two of these and my laptop started back with the bluescreens.
So you might be right, if even a fresh OS installation is crashing, then something is wrong with the machine itself.

Not even sure what to do now, as the message on BSOD is always different and related to RAM, drivers or HDD.
Strange thing, it must probably come with one of the updates.

Thanks for your help anyways!

Works perfectly good on older version of BIOS...
Thread to close.
