Unexpected blue screen. It suggests hardware issues and happens frequently today.

I skipped the ram test because Microsoft said it takes several minutes, but actually takes several hours (64GB).

Each time the system crashes, the foreground process is unresponsive and followed by high disk usage. I enabled bitlocker on my c drive, and it failed to mount in my win to go system (I prepared for emergency), thus it indicates the drive might have a problem (but the smart report everything is ok).

Currently, I'm recovering the encrypted data from the c drive. Then, test the ram and see what's going wrong.

After I finished several tests, the laptop seemed totally ok. No more blue screens.

But the photo contains my bitlocker recovery key, so I have to re-encrypt the drive...

My guess is that `repair-bde` did the trick. The document said this command will attemp to repair the original disk and salvage recoverable data to output. Maybe it magically fixed the bitlocker issue and no more data corruption?
