Windows 8 Driver Verifier | Windows 8 Hardware & Drivers | Windows 8 Forums

Hi,

In fact, if the the Driver Verifier (DV) finds a violation, it will result in a BSOD.

And after restart, you may not be able to enter the normal windows.

• Boot into SAFEMODE – tap the F8 key repeatedly during boot-up
… • Select "System Restore"
… • Choose the restore point that you created in step #1

- For Driver Verifier status – type verifier /query (in a cmd/DOS screen)
- To turn Driver Verifier off – verifier /reset then re-boot

- The Driver Verifier needs to run as long as possible – even if the status screen appears clear.
- All future BSOD dumps must be VERIFIER_ENABLED_MINIDUMPs – otherwise the dump(s) are of no use

If your system does BSOD while the Driver Verifier is running, please retrieve the dump file from c:\windows\minidump, zip it up & attach to your next post.

hope this do you a favor.
