    Hi. I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.


    The minidump indicates that the crash was caused by a driver associated with the Intel processor.


    I suggest doing the following:

    • Go to the Asus website using the link below, download the latest Chipset driver, and install it.

    https://www.asrock.com/MB/Intel/H510M-HDVM.2/index.asp#Download

    Driver name: INF driver ver:10.1.18634.8254_Public

    (Extract the ZIP file, double-click the file "SetupChipset" to run it, and follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver.)

    • Go to the motherboard BIOS and check if you have any XMP/DOCP/EXPO (RAM overclock) profile configured. Disable it, leave it as default.

    (If you need help checking this, let me know.)


    Then, see if the system will work stably.


    If the BSOD occurs again after doing this, please share the minidump it created.


    Feel free to ask back any questions.

    Sorry for the delay in reply. I've been offline.


    In this case, I have 2 suspicions about the cause of this problem.

    1. A severe corruption of Windows.
    2. A hardware problem.

    It is possible to test some hardware components using software, but unfortunately, not all of them.


    I suggest you use the free MemTest86 tool for a deep check of your RAM.

    https://www.memtest86.com/download.htm

    The deep scan can take a long time, depending on how much RAM you have. So do it at a time that suits you.

    Feel free to share a photo of the test result.


    Also, check the "health" of your HD/SSD using Crystal Disk Info.

    https://crystalmark.info/en/download/#CrystalDiskInfo

    (On this same page, there is the download of another app. The "Crystal Disk Mark". Do not download Crystal Disk Mark. Download only the "Crystal Disk Info".)

    Download the "Standard Edition" by clicking on the "ZIP (XP-)" button.

    Extract the ZIP and run the file "DiskInfo64.exe".

    The health result of your HD/SSD will be displayed. See if there are any alerts.

    Feel free to share a screenshot if you want. Use the shortcut "Windows + Shift + S" to use the screenshot tool.


    Let me know the result.

    Feel free to ask back any questions.
