Doesn't BlueScreenView work with Server 2016?
yes, it does. Thanks for the link. Cool feature is that it lets you right click the dump and launch a google search. That said, in my case, it doesn't indicate which driver caused it since it was ntoskrnl.exe that crashed.

I was actually just having issues with the same thing on a user system. In our cases (two) one was an Antivirus issue, and the other was a USB driver issue.

The clients had an issue with one of the two Xerox drivers because of an issue with Webroot and the Windows 10 creators update. An update from Webroot fixed the problem.

Does Windows Debugger give more info than that? Should also tell you what driver caused the crash

Drag, a Blue Screen from that incompatibility.

Bluescreenview tells you that as well. It supports Windows 10 so server 2016 is supported (Same kernel).

For a second I was terrified that the capitalization was wrong and that MS made a new version of Virtual Server 2005!
Pheww

oh, I wanted to be clear it's a VM since most BSODs are caused by drivers and VMs don't have all the third party drivers that physical boxes do.

But this one does, specifically the printer drivers

By the way what Xerox drivers do you get? Are using the PCL6 global drivers, do you use those? 90% of my printers are Xerox.

I am using the PCL 6. Not sure if it was the global driver. In the process of that driver not rolling, I also installed the PS, PCL5, and XPS. I have since removed the extra drivers and the old drivers from the Konica that the copier replaced.

Okay, I have the following on my server with Server 2012 R2

Have you tried removing any faulty drivers from safe mode?

I don't know what the faulty drivers are. I removed the printer drivers I don't need through print management and haven't had a blue screen yet, but only time will tell.
