KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
The KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED bug check has a value of 0x0000008E. This bug check indicates that a kernel-mode application generated an exception that the error handler did not catch.
KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
1 |
The exception code that was not handled |
2 |
The address where the exception occurred |
3 |
The trap frame |
4 |
Reserved |
Cause
This bug check is a very common bug check. To interpret it, you must identify which exception was generated.
Common exception codes include the following:
For a complete list of exception codes, see the Ntstatus.h file that is located in the inc directory of the Microsoft Windows Driver Kit (WDK).
Resolution
Start with Parameter 1 (the exception code), Parameter 2 (the exception address), and Parameter 3 (the trap frame). Run !analyze -v, inspect the trap frame and stack, and identify the module that owns the faulting instruction rather than applying generic startup or hardware changes.
For 0x80000003, confirm whether an assertion or hard-coded breakpoint executed without an attached kernel debugger. For 0x80000002, inspect the trap-frame state. For access violations and other exceptions, preserve the faulting address, register context, module version, and repeated stack signature across dumps.
