Fix all BSoD events and keep computer safe and clean:
Fortect will find the cause of BSoD and fix it. Here is how to do it with 3 easy steps:
The NMR_INVALID_STATE bug check has a value of 0x00000125 and it means that the NMR (network module registrar) has detected an invalid state. Long story short, if you installed a new or additional network card, or installed a new driver to it, that is the most likely cause for the NMR_INVALID_STATE BSoD.
Before starting, check if the network drive or module is installed correctly on your device and it’s compatible with your Windows OS.
How do I fix NMR_INVALID_STATE?
1. Roll back any recently updated network driver
Windows updates also come with driver updates that will install automatically, so there might be a new driver that you don’t know about. If this doesn’t work, you can also visit the manufacturer’s website for that component and download the correct driver for your device and OS.
This can be a tedious task, so if you have driver issues, we recommend using a dedicateddriver updater toolthat will do that for you automatically.
2. Use the Network troubleshooter
3. Check the memory for issues
Although it’s less likely, the NMR_INVALID_STATE BSoD, may also be caused by a malfunctioning or incorrectly connected memory module. After performing the memory check, try reseating the RAM modules on the motherboard and perform another test. If the results keep showing the same issue, try with another RAM module or replaced the damaged one.
In the same way, if the network card you just installed is not supported, we recommend disconnecting and replacing it.
We hope that our guide helped you fix the NMR_INVALID_STATE BSoD. If you need more information about bug checks, refer to our article on thecauses of BSoD.
