Hello everyone, I’m reaching out for assistance in identifying a problem that’s becoming more frequent on my computer. Every few days, I encounter a pop-up displaying the message about a memory reference failure at a specific address. This issue began a few months ago, coinciding with a recent Windows installation. At first, it happened roughly every couple of weeks, but now it’s happening more often—every few days. Although it was initially bothersome and not alarming, the rising frequency has raised my concern. Until recently, the only applications running were Firefox alongside Dropbox, Backblaze, GeForce, and NordVPN in the system tray. This pattern seems consistent, but I’m unsure if it’s a recurring problem and how to resolve it. Any advice would be invaluable.
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
This began a few months ago when I performed a fresh Windows installation on my computer.
Where did you obtain the installer for the operating system?
Your motherboard: MSI MAG z690 TOMAHAWK WIFI DDR4
Updating the BIOS (Version 7D32v1C)

You have pending BIOS updates; please reflash it to the latest version, 7D32v1F.
Consider installing the OS on a different SSD and disconnecting the Kingston drive from your system.
I received the Windows install from the official Microsoft site and followed their instructions to create a bootable media. The purpose of booting to a separate drive is to determine whether the issue lies with hardware (the updated installation still has the same problems) or with software (the new version doesn't have any issues).
