The minidump files indicates that the cause of the BSOD is "nvlddmkm.sys" which is an NVIDIA driver.

Are you using an app like NVIDIA Broadcaster? If so, please uninstall and test to see if the problem occurs.

Also uninstall the current graphics card driver using DDU tool, go to the nvidia website and search for the driver before the last one released, download and install it.

    My name is Jonathan Deives. I'm an Independent Advisor and I will be happy to help you.

    See if your computer is creating minidump files.

    To find these files, this is the path "C:\Windows\Minidump".

    First copy and paste all the minidump files you have to another folder and then zip it. Then upload the ZIP file to the cloud on a website like OneDrive, Google Drive or Dropbox.

    Choose to share or right click and get the share link.

    Please post the link to the ZIP file here so it can be reviewed.
