Vmbus.sys Blue Screen
Jasmine Lemaitre
vmbus.sys "blue screen of death" error problems are generally caused by Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2016 (1709) for x64-based Systems (KB4093112) driver corruption, or if the associated device hardware is faulty in some way. Downloading and replacing your SYS file can fix the problem in most cases. After the problem file is replaced, running a driver scan will ensure all device drivers are updated (which could be the source of the vmbus.sys error).
Getting the vmbus.sys file location correct is critical in making sure these errors are resolved successfully, so it doesn't hurt to check to make sure. Test the outcome of the file replacement by loading Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2016 (1709) for x64-based Systems (KB4093112) to see if the error still appears as it did before.
- Tried suggestion to run pnputil to get driver packages instead, this did work and listed a bunch of oem0x.inf files relating to corsair, which I used pnputil to remove with the delete + force + uninstall switches, however when you reboot they come back
Now going to have to wipe the drive and reinstall if no one else can save the day. Suspect this will be my first and last Corsair keyboard if I'm looking at the potential of the firmware/control center bricking my machine at moments notice :
Now im deleting my corsair software, list the K95 RGB on sale and look for another brand, also removed my vengeance LPX DDR 4 3600 MHz from my shopping list for the new computer. I don't care if its windows update that messed things up, I hope some kid isn't crying at the moment and don't have any idea what to do.
I have deleted the driver per the other instructions and I still get a BSOD error. Now it is worse because the BSOD hangs at the restart and won't restart at all. When I get back into the OS drive the driver is no longer there so I don't know how it can still cause the error.
After doing the delete solution and that failing, I went back and did the re-name solution even though the driver was no longer listed. That got me able to reboot windows, I went in and deleted the app and so far windows is rolling along.
This is caused by a very old CorsairVBusDriver (driver version is 2.x or older) installed with old CUE SW (CUE 2.x or older) conflicting with the new driver (driver version is 3.x) released with the recent Windows update.
I'm sorry but i'm not letting you get away with such a poor response. Thousands of people are likely affected by this and worrying just before christmas and all you can do is tell them to system restore. What if they don't have a restore point before the update? What if an error pops up so they can't system restore? Do you have any solutions? I can't believe this even happened in the first place.
Is the official respones from Corsair really only "you need to recover your pc". Luckily I have background and knowledge in programming, but this won't be easy for anybody to fix and will likely just buy a new PC which is really expensive these days.
I am terribly sorry for the inconvenience and tragedy. There is a fix for this and that is simply to install the latest version of iCUE (as of this posting, it is v3.37). This blue screen is only a result of using the older versions of iCUE (v2.x)that existed more than 3 years ago As long as you don't have that version of iCUE installed, you'll be okay.
If you don't have a system restore point, then you'll need to go through a Windows command prompt and uninstall iCUE through it. As long as you remove the driver, this blue screen won't occur anymore. Unfortunately there is no other resolution as iCUE v2.x has stopped support for more than 3 years now.
Also, if I just plugged my old keyboard into my machine with windows newly installed, what driver is it going to install? The latest? I am using a Strafe keyboard I bought 3-4 years ago if that helps.
Could anyone from blizzard please help me. I have been getting blue screens every other time I launch WoW. I load WoW but when it goes to login to the character selection screen it will either load or blue screen. I tried to fix the problem on my own.
I put up with the blue screens till about a week ago when I got a new hard drive thinking that may be the problem. I thought this because when I would use the Blizz launcher and when WoW would blue screen it would loose the path to WoW and my other blizzard games and I would have to locate them everytime the blue screen happened.
So when I got the new hard drive I reinstalled Windows clean and installed WoW. The problem continued so I figured it might be a memory issue so I checked my memory sticks one by one and loaded WoW and it still failed when I isolated each piece of memory.
I'm trying to intall Windows 10 (april and october update versions tried) on a late 2013 iMac. I can download the file (only on ExFat format) to my USB and partition my disk for Windows successfully, but when the computer reboots to Windows I get a blue screen saying "error code 0xc0000098" and that my PC needs to be repaired.
I've tried both 64 bit versions of Win10. I've tried reformatting my USB to MSDOTFAT but the I keep getting halfway through the boot camp download and it says my USB doesn't have enough space (but it's empty and has over 30gb).
I already downloaded the April version of ISO and placed on desktop in lieu of downloads. So you're saying that before I run BC with my USB plugged in I should go to DU and unmount the ISO? Is that right?
I was able to partition the disk and unmount the ISO - the computer restarted and looked to be booting in Windows and then I got the blue screen "you PC ran into a problem" screen. I restarted again holding the ALT key and selected the Windows drive again and the same problem happened.
When virtualizing a protected system, the Hyper-V server role can cause a blue screen to occur regarding winhv.sys. This happens because the Hyper-V server role is unable to start inside a virtualized environment.

Today we are rising toward the cloud technology. In many ways this has increased the need of peoples who understand and troubleshoot Virtualized OS and performance related issues in more granular way.
Automation and AI are taking high market stack in combination with cloud. But while upgrading ourselves we also have to understand the Hypervisor and Hardware are also going to be more complex and will requires more advance troubleshooting skills.
While troubleshooting a performance issue on the newly migrated VM in hyper-v, in same context we were having a discussion among colleagues on the hypervisor topic. Common question was how hypervisor works this discussion made me more interested in knowing about the Virtualization basic detail. For an IT person virtualization term is not new term, but what is happening under the hood, how virtualization works?
Concept of Virtualization and 3 basic theorems was presented by Popek and Goldberg in 1974, although IBM was the first to introduce actual concept prior to Popek and Goldberg; it took almost 24 years in 1998 when virtualization was achieved by complex coding by VMWare. As explained by Popek and Goldberg -- A virtualizable architecture allows any instruction inspecting/modifying machine state to be trapped when executed in any but the most privileged mode. VMWare researchers pointed out in a 2006 that Popek and Goldberg concept revolves around 3 defined criteria and not by the classic trap-and-emulate technique
The Hyper-V Management Services runs in the root partition and can create new guest partitions. These will in turn communicate with the hypervisor kernel using hypercalls. There are higher level APIs for communication, with the most important one being VMBus. VMBus is a cross-partition IPC component that is heavily used by the virtualization stack.
Hyper-V enlightened I/O and a hypervisor aware kernel are available when installing the Hyper-V integration services. Integration components, which include virtual server client (VSC) drivers, are available for Windows and for some of the more common Linux.
Synthetic interrupt processing involves the Virtualization Service Provider (VSP) associated with the device driver invoked to process the interrupt. Data acquired from the device is transferred directly into guest machine memory using a VMBus communication mechanism, where it is processed by the Virtualization Service Client (VSC) associated with the synthetic device.
If the hardware is not supported then Para-virtualization was possible to by stopping the critical instruction to be executed by changing the codes of the guest OS.in this case guest OS will not be aware of the VMM but it will work properly , VMM will provide the hyper call channel to do the communication between VMM and guest OS.
Virtualization techniques - Binary translation module is used to skip or modify the guest OS binary code blocks which include critical instructions. Translate those critical instructions into some privilege instructions which will be trapped to VMM for further emulation.
The OS designer uses the privilege instructions and non-privilege instructions to separate between kernel space which access hardware resource directly and user space which access hardware resource indirectly.
