Windows 24H2 + WD = blue screens

I didn’t find the HMBAllocationPolicy there.

I installed the Micron NVMe driver v2.1.18.0 WHQL, and things got much better, but I’m still getting a BSOD issue (about 1 in every 30 restarts). The error The driver detected a controller error on \Device\RaidPort1 no longer appears in the event logs, but the system still crashes sometimes.

My PC is new, and I’ve already scheduled an online support session with the supplier. Hopefully, that helps. They will probably replace my SSD with a new one from WD. If that doesn’t fix it, I’m considering refunding the whole computer.

It’s really frustrating to have to revert to Windows 23H2. I haven’t tried it yet, but I just got a new PC, and I can’t even install the latest version of Windows. I’m also seeing other errors and crashes without events, and I’m starting to think everything is just broken.
