Recently (at least over the past week) I've experienced random BSOD crashes. At first I didn't think much of them, but today when I tried to run one of my emulators it would consistently crash and restart my PC. I searched online for fixes like chkdsk and driver updates, but nothing worked. I noticed a post from about four years ago with a similar problem, so I thought I'd share my experience. The crashes I encountered included messages such as "DRIVER OVERRAN STACK BUFFER", "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL", and "PAGE FAULT IN NON PAGE AREA". I've attached a link to a Dropbox file containing my Minidump folder and the old post with the similar issue. Thanks for any assistance.
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.
dxgkrnl.sys
yuzu.exe
Are two things that stood out to me after using WinDBG to run your .dmp files, uninstall Nintendo's emulator and see if that changes anything.
I wasn’t able to gather everything, so here’s what I could list using Speccy (I’m completely new to PCs). I managed to locate a nearly identical version of the PC I bought from Micro Center, and I’ve attached the link in case it helps clarify what I missed.
CPU: 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900K
CPU cooler: Motherboard MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI
Memory: 32GB (Speccy says unknown, but the build at Micro Center looks similar, so it might be DDR5-6000 RAM)
Storage: 2GB Western Digital WD Blue SN570 2TB (type unknown – it’s an SSD)
SSD/HDD: 5GB Western Digital WD Game Drive USB Device (USB SATA SSD)
GPU: Intel® UHD Graphics / NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti
Power supply: 750 watts (?)
Chassis: PowerSpec ATX 205 Mesh
Operating system: Windows 11 Pro
Monitor: Acer SB220Q and Scepter E20
Here’s the link to the similar PC I found:

Yuzu.exe works fine when launching, but it crashes only when running a game. I noticed this was the only consistent crash before my post, even though there were other random crashes earlier. It doesn’t appear to be an installed app—removing it from my PC didn’t seem to help.
Apologies for the delayed reply; work took longer than expected.
Run OCCT CPU test and if it crashes, attempt to reach out to Intel
