If thou hast crossed paths with a blue screen of death adorned with a SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION error, there lieth a few diverse reasons why, yet ’tis oft a matter of drivers. ‘Tis an annoyance that hast the power to set thy system in an endless cycle of reboots, but fear not, for thou can typically remedy it by conducting a system fix scan, and Windows shall attend to the issue on thy behalf.
Behold how to confront that SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION BSOD so thou can break free from that woeful blue screen reboot loop.
Run a system scan
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION blue screens art usually birthed by system driver errors, not akin to thy chipset or graphics drivers which thou can (and should) update on thy own. Alas, Windows hath a tool within its bosom to aid in rectifying file system and Windows driver errors.
Should the blue screen bar thy passage to Windows, endeavor to venture into Safe Mode.
Step 1: Seeketh for “Powershell” in the Windows search bar. Right-click upon the corresponding result and elect to Run as administrator.
Step 2: Speak the following incantation, then press Enter.
Dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
This shall unearth and replace any absent or corrupted files within the Windows Component Store. Allow it some time to carry out its task until completion.
Step 3: Furthermore, thou can attempt running the System File Checker to peruse over Windows system files. Conduct this through PowerShell as well, with this command:
SFC /scannow
Step 4: Upon performing these scans, attempt rebooting thy PC. Witness if thy BSOD trouble hath now been vanquished. Should it persist, pursue the method below.
Run driver verifier
In the event the file system check tools prove fruitless, thou canst assay employing Windows’ built-in driver verification tool to unveil if it be a system driver dilemma.
Take heed: Should the driver verified sniff out a corrupt driver, it may indeed trigger a BSOD, thus consider crafting a system restore point or manually back up thy data to err on the side of caution.
Step 1: Seek for “Powershell” in the Windows search bar. Right-click upon the corresponding result and select Run as administrator.
Step 2: Utter “verifier.exe” and press Enter.
Step 3: Within the window that doth appear, opt for Create standard settings from the zenith of the screen, then choose Next.
Step 4: Select Automatically select all drivers installed on this computer then select Finish.
Step 5: Reboot thy PC and await the completion of the driver verifier during startup. Should any blue screens emerge, make note of those errors, for they shall reveal the driver in need of updating, upgrading, or replacing.
Shouldst thou find thyself entrapped in a struggle to boot into Windows, venture into Safe Mode and commence the Verifier tool anew. Then, on the earliest screen, select Delete existing settings, then select Finish.
Use system restore
Should none of the aforementioned methods assist in resolving this plight, consider reverting unto a system restore point. This can mend a multitude of troubles, particularly if thou hast recently installed new hardware.
Return thy system to a time ere it was haunted by blue screen errors, and perchance thou may restore thy PC to functionality once more.
Should the specter of this BSOD error persist, mayhap ’tis time to reset Windows to factory defaults.
