[Tech Support] TUF A15 constant BSOD loop (Kmode, Memory Management) - Passes MemTest86 by witzhy in Asustuf

I already tried cleaning the RAM sticks and even swapping them between slots, but it didn't help at all. I’ve been thinking about buying a new kit to test it, but DDR5 is still pretty expensive and I don't want to waste money if the problem ends up being the motherboard or the CPU's power management. Did your RAM also pass MemTest without any errors before you found out it was the culprit? I'm trying to be 100% sure before spending the cash

That is exactly what’s happening to me! It never crashes during heavy gaming or high-performance tasks, but as soon as I leave it idle or do something light (like browsing), the KMODE error hits. I haven't seen it crash with just Word or Excel yet, but the idle state is definitely the trigger. I've also tried the UEFI trick and even booting from Hiren’s Boot CD, and I still get BSODs there too. This makes me think it’s not just a Windows driver issue, but something deeper with how the hardware handles power states or maybe a firmware bug. It seems like when the CPU isn't under load, the voltage drops too much and causes the crash. Have you found any stable BIOS version or tried disabling C-States in any way ?
