A Stop error is displayed as a blue screen that contains the name of the faulty driver, such as any of the following example drivers:
- atikmpag.sys
- igdkmd64.sys
- nvlddmkm.sys
- `atikmpag.sys`
- `igdkmd64.sys`
- `nvlddmkm.sys`
There is no simple explanation for the cause of Stop errors (also known as blue screen errors or bug check errors). Many different factors can be involved. However, various studies indicate that Stop errors usually are not caused by Microsoft Windows components. Instead, these errors are generally related to malfunctioning hardware drivers or drivers that are installed by third-party software. This includes video cards, wireless network cards, security programs, and so on.
