I suspected something like that may be going on.  Still, it would be interesting to note the bugcheck details, if at all available...

What version of handle do you use (I assume v3.42, the latest...)?

It's interesting to learn that handle.exe also uses the same drives.  I do use handle.exe in a script which would explain why the driver is always loaded.
 
Thanks for answering my question indirectly.

 If i use it will loaded and its absence from the list would confirm no else has.
Note that only if Process Explorer is run by an Administrator, will its driver be loaded.  But, since only a kernel component or faulty hardware can cause a bugcheck, it would seem you are only interested in that case.

Also note that other utils such as Handle.exe use the Process Explorer driver.

Of course bugcheck details would be of interest, but it does not sound like those are available to you... Dead

 Maybe DriverView

The only way to confirm it for yourself would be to run Windbg or something like blue screen view.

Hello,

I would like to know how I can get a list of loaded kernel drivers on a windows server box.  I know how to do it with ProcessExplorer, but I don't/can't use it.  The reason is that I have a windows server box that's getting a blue screen.  The sysops tell me that it was caused by procexp113.sys driver, but I don't think it was.  I would like to get a list to confirm no one has run procexplorer.  If i use it will loaded and its absence from the list would confirm no else has.
 
PS.  I don't have a copy of the minidump that was created to confirm it.  The sysops have analyzed the dump before and found it was loaded and caused the blue screen, but now have stopped doing it and directly assume we're running procexplorer, which we have stopped running.
