KERNEL MODE HEAP CORRUPTION while downloading games

[Elrecoal19]

I recently installed Windows 11 again in my PC, after trying out Linux Mint and giving up. Now, literally just downloading games makes my entire PC crash, what happened? I know it's Steam causing it (in the sense that it happens when using Steam, not that Steam messed something on its own) because I tested opening several apps individually for half an hour, and Steam made it BSOD after 10min. I tried reinstalling Steam, Windows 11, running windows memory scans, using DSIM and SFC, updating MB chipset and BIOS, updating and rollbacking GPU drivers, looking at disk health with crystaldiskinfo... and nothing...

does anyone know what to do, what might be causing it?

Update your BIOS and chipset Drivers and all otyher brand support Drivers.

ps.
Please tell us are you unaware that its your job to update bought pc its in the manual or online pdf file. most got such information then pc is bought.

Steam and game devs only have focu on own app and games, not your pc.


ps.
i also know linux user in the old days they had a dont fix it if it aient broken attitude, say alot of whats wrong with them, today its the other way around , he how do not updatre get into trouble.sooner or later, then apps and OS build on things is updfated.

MS knowledge about it.

also why you fail newly installed OS ( what the hell do you want SFC to fix. ) and why BIOS and driver most be the issue.


gl with it.

Steam cannot cause kernel mode crashes. It doesn't occupy the HAL layer where it would have access to anythign like that

Run a full windows update on your system. But its likely your 'playing wiht mint' screwed something up on your system

Can be one of the following:
* Faulty driver
* Faulty antivirus
* Faulty anti-cheat
* Faulty RAM

See even they other helper here got the msg, its a you have not update or have driver issue.

new OS installed what the hell is there to fix, ( i mean standard windows installation, if this don't work then you are in trouble. ) do not OC then test for pc stability.
