Frequent BSOD Triggered by FL Studio Launch

I’ve been experiencing recurring Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors on my system since May 2025. The crashes happen under specific conditions:
  • When opening FL Studio
  • When plugging in or unplugging the power supply (Running the FL Studio application in the background)

There is no issue with FL Studio itself — I have been using it flawlessly since 2024 without any problems. I suspect the BSOD may be related to a driver conflict or power management issue, especially since the crashes also occur when plugging or unplugging the power supply. No major hardware changes have been made recently.

Hi there, after following all the steps as requested, I noticed a new issue. When I opened FL Studio this time, my E: drive disappeared from File Explorer. However, after restarting the system, both C: and E: drives appeared normally again.

Could you please help me understand why this might be happening and how I can prevent the E: drive from disappearing like this?

If this is a recurrent problem then switch RAID to AHCI > report findings
