We need more information...

What kind of scene do you render? Does it happen with the default Cube too?

Computer restarts are usually a driver error, make sure you use latest nvidia drivers. Also note that the 920M is pretty low-end, and not really suited for GPU rendering.

I do have the last version of my driver. I usually do simple things. It happens when I close the program, but not during a render.

Hello,

I also have the same problem. Just installed fresh Windows 10 and Blender 2.76b. Card Geforce GTX 860M. When Blender starts it uses Blender render by default. If I try to switch to Cycles render I get KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE error, blue screen and my computer restarts.

I solved my problem by right clikcing on the blender.exe and run it whit a powerful graphic procesor. (Do not whit the integrated graphics.)

Thanks, Eduard! It works. I already tried to change to Nvidia in user preferences but it did not help much.

I have Windows 10, NVidia 840m and Blender 2.76b and found a same error + blue screen + restart when trying to change the colour of the background in the World object.

I have the same problem, tried to run with the internal card and with Nvidia, sometimes I have crash and sometimes not. also the build bot version cause this BSOD.
I ask Microsoft about that and have a lot of DMP files from the BSOD here:
http:*answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/windows10-bsod-kernel-security-check-failure

it's start after the new update (new Win10 build), it's not occur on the old Win10 build that I have after upgrading from Win7.

Seems like a common issue but I don't think it is something that can be solved from Blender's side.

BSODs and simular stuff (e.g. kernel panic on Linux) can only be caused by code running with kernel privileges, which is only the case for the OS and drivers, not for Blender (note that "kernel" refers to the OS component here, not the Cycles compute kernels).
Therefore, this has to be caused by a bug inside of the graphics driver. Maybe triggering the bug could be avoided from the Blender side, but I still wouldn't really consider this a Blender bug.

Geforce 880m card, Win 8.1, same error if I don't ensure that blender runs with the high performance card rather than the low performance one. Only started getting this BSOD since the upgrade to Blender 2.76b so I'm inclined to think this is a Blender issue with the change in version. Only other update made at the same time was Luxrender 1.3.1 to 1.5.1 so a pretty isolated change.

Well, yes, maybe Blender 2.76 started calling a broken CUDA function that it didn't call before, but that doesn't change the fact that the CUDA function itself is broken.

After all, if you never used a button in Blender before, but when you tried it in a new workflow it crashes, the bug is not in your workflow ;)

On non-DOS systems, the CPU and OS make it impossible for userspace software like Blender to cause a BSOD, it must be caused by either a hardware fault or a buggy driver (and allowing non-privileged software to crash the system is a pretty serious driver bug).

Fair point Lukas - I have pretty dim view of windows software models and their robustness - but haven't programmed at low level as kernel or graphics driver for a long time (so long I'm not going to admit how far back it was :-) - but certainly the model then allowed programs to quite easily elevate their privileges to a very damaging level )

Archiving for now, this is indeed most likely yet another GPU driver bug - and in any case, we cannot investigate something we cannot reproduce… :/

@realman please uninstall all GPU drivers from your computer (Intel, Nvidia, AMD) and install the latest drivers from your manufactures website. (This worked for me)

Oklet me try that and i'll let you know the result.
