plt.plot() cause blue screen on windows


This code cause a blue screen on windows on my computer :

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

plt.plot(range(10),range(10)) # This is the line that cause the crash

WhoCrashed tells me this :

This was probably caused by the following module: nt_wrong_symbols.sys (nt_wrong_symbols) Bugcheck code: 0x124 (0x0, 0xFFFFB60A6AF4D028, 0xB2000000, 0x70005) Error: WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR

Here is a link to the full Minidump

What I have done:

This lead me to believe this is a windows specific error.

Hardware configuration :

Software :

This is the only thing that causes blue screen on my computer, and I'm out of ideas on how to solve this, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

NOTE : I asked this question here as it appears to be matplotlib related, I hope this is the right place

EDIT : Correction : it does not happens all the time, but more like 95% of the time.


Solution

  • I updated the BIOS and it seems to work now. As i9-7940X is very recent (Q3'17), my old BIOS version was supposed to work with it but was released before the CPU (06/17) so that might have been the issue.

    I'll post again if blue screens come back.
