Hi @blissgirl

I have just googled it and this is what it says..

The “Kernel Security Check failure” in Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 can appear for different kinds of reasons like memory issues, virus infections of the Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 but the most common is that the drivers you were using for the previous versions of Windows are not compatible with the new Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 thus giving you the “Kernel Security Check failure” error message followed by the error code “0x000000139”

Have a look here to see a fix...

It will be a driver that needs updating.

Easiest way is to look on manufacturers websites for the latest ones for the products you have fitted, but you need to figure out which one is the problem first.
