*update* This is a followup to my post earlier today Removing the AsMedia driver (as proposed) did the trick (I was very tired that evening, I didn't realise this forum had 2 pages :') I only saw it after posting the other message. Thanks for the suggestions guys! It got incredibly frustrating. Still don't quite get why Blade favors the Intel Sata's so much but hey, what do we know ;) Have a nice day.

I'm having the exact same problem. Played the game a few days ago (on my WD Caviar Black) and all seemed okay Got a 1Tb Samsung 840 Evo in the mail today, everything works perfectly but when I started Blade & Soul it gave me an update. Installed it, started the game, 'explorer.exe' starts acting weird (desktop icons disappear), few seconds later I am faced with the bluescreen (Critical_process_died) with a percentage bar that doesn't move from "0%". What I've tried so far: - Re-installing Nvidia drivers (trying v376.33 as well as v378.49) for my GTX 1070 - Uninstalling NCSoft Launcher and manually removing every trace from NCSoft from my drives, appdata and registry - Check other drivers (no outdated ones found) - Reinstalling Blade and Soul (with the NCSoft Launcher of course), waited 2 hours for the download to complete (but no luck this time either) - Checked my Windows installation via "sfc /scannow" and "/DISM [...], no errors found on other disks either (SMART data is 100% 'GOOD') All of the above in no particular order. OS: Windows 10 Home x64 Configuration: 250Gb Boot drive, installed Blade & Soul on my new SSD (1Tb D-drive). My WD Black used to be secondary, I cloned the Black on the SSD and now the 840 is my D:\") All I've been doing for the last 3 or so hours is trying to solve this Blade&Soul bluescreen-issue, Googling "Blade and soul critical process died" didn't yield any (useful) results. However, only now at 02:15 in the morning I found this thread by replacing the words "critical process died" to a less specific "Blade and soul bluescreen". I'm somewhat glad to see I'm not the only one, thanks to you all for trying to help resolve it.
