Windows 10 - Tracking down a mis-behaving driver

Ever perform a Window update and your Windows start to crash with no reason? It is very possible that the Windows update is not compatible with the existing driver which your system is using.

I found a very useful article from Microsoft which really helped me to find my troubled driver

I am not going to repost what Microsoft had posted, but there is 1 point worth mentioning, that is, you should isolate the problem rather than selecting all driver at one go. The reason is - if you are using this driver validator, it mean you are already facing the driver error which crashed your system. You do not need to waste time to test all the drivers again since each verification takes time and restart your system,

You should instead binarily solve this problem by half the group until you find the problemed driver.
