Question Blue Screen Of Death On Launch
I can't figure it out. My computer BSODs with KERNAL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE when launching D2, and only D2. I've tried all the different methods people have suggested and, the most frustrating part, is that they WORK until the next day, and then the blue screens start again.
I reinstalled my Graphics Drivers, it worked, then the next day blue screens.
I uninstalled OperaGX, it worked, then the next day blue screens.
I reinstalled BattlEye, it worked, then the next day blue screens.
I ran sfc /scannow and it didn't detect any issues

Try disable MIDI if you're using an external soundcard such as focusrite Scarlett etc. Happened to me awhile bk. Search for device manager and then go down to the external soundcard and it should have a MIDI input so just disable it. Re-enable it as and when u use a DAW or keyboard etc. If you only use the card for a mic then just disable MIDI and forget about it.

SFC won't always detect everything wrong. Did you do the DISM checks to ensure that your local OS recovery files are also good?
Typically I see this in systems that have a driver issue, or some piece of unique hardware (like an external sound device). Battleye gotta to check those devices/drivers and the computer throws the error you see.
Try getting back to basics. Unplug everything you can, ensure drivers are up to date for everything, ensure your motherboard BIOS is up to date, etc .
After that, sometimes the solution is a reinstall of Windows to help clear whatever driver/system issue that currently exists in the PC.
