Consistent Kernel Level BSOD from CLOSING the game

As the title says, I have consistently been getting a BSOD with the error code: PAGE_FAULT_IN NONPAGED_AREA, where most of the time it mentions that BEDaisy.sys has failed (which I am aware is related to Battle Eye specifically). If I look at the event viewer on my PC it will constantly log a Kernel Power event ID 41.

 

While it has happened trying to launch the game, I am consistently getting this issue when I EXIT the game. It doesn’t matter if I exit from wishing the game, end task via task manager, or even if I ALT+F4… the PC will typically crash. I have gotten lucky a few times but I would say 80% of the time it will occur, making the game nearly unplayable. I have tried so much and I am at my wits end, including:

 

  • Verifying the integrity of the game files
  • Reinstalling the game
  • Reinstalling Battle Eye
  • Updating my GPU Drivers
  • Rolling Back my GPU Drivers
  • Unplugging all USB devices aside from my Mouse and Keyboard.
  • Updating my BIOS
  • Resetting my BIOS to default settings
  • Ensuring there is no form of overlocking being done. 
  • Performed a Memory Diagnostics Test (Clean)
  • Attempted to launch and close Marathon without getting a BSOD with only one stick of RAM installed (tried with both sticks and both still had crashes)
  • Reinstalled Windows (Keeping Personal Files)
  • Reinstalled Windows (Clean installation, removed everything)
  • Downgraded from Windows 11 back to Windows 10

 

The issue is still present, even on my PC that has nothing but Marathon, Steam, and the hardware I have. At this point I am only testing Marathon, but I have been having issues with most games that use Battle Eye AND other Kernel level Anti-cheats, such as EA’s Javelin, etc. But I have not had such consistent crashes until Marathon.

 

At this point, as much as I truly believe it’s to do with poorly tested and forced out Kernel Level anti-cheats, I am also inclined to believe it may be hardware issues. However, I don’t exactly have hundreds upon hundreds of dollars to start buying components just to test if they fix my issue. May attempt to replace my PSU, if that doesn’t work I will look at potentially my motherboard and potentially even the CPU. If I still do not have a fix at that point, I genuinely don’t know what to do. I’d attempt to buy some RAM if it didn’t cost an arm and a leg currently. At this rate I won’t even own the same PC so if it still didn’t work I don’t know what to do.

 

Has ANYONE had this issue or know someone who has had this issue and has been able to fix it via a method I did not list above?

 

My PC Specifications:

  • Intel Core i9-14900K
  • ASUS TUF Gaming Z790-Plus
  • ZOTAC Geforce RTX 3090
  • CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 64GB 5200MHz
  • Corsair RM1000x PSU
  • Samsung 990 PRO M.2 2280 SSD (Boot drive and drive Marathon/Steam are installed on)
  • Multiple other SSD drives and a single 8TB HDD

 

If there are any other specs or details you need please let me know.
