Hello guys, first of all, sorry if my english isn't the best. And this is also my first forum post every, so I am sorry if I did something wrong I have a problem with my PC. Everytime when I am starting my PC I get a blue screens after ~2 minutes. Sometimes I don't get an error code but most likely the bluescreen says "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL". I have no clue what is causing this problem and no clue how to figure it out exactly since I am not really good with such things. If possible explaining things in a easy way would be appreciated. Please help me, would be really appreciated. 042821-7453-01.dmp

Link to the required files: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AvH0GWxyPGnymnptL-V0Chs9tENR?e=38tIO1 I have been having constant memory/ driver related blue screens. I have 1. Reinstalled windows 2. changed motherboards 3. changed boot drives 4. changed ram 5. changed graphics cards The blue screens happen at random times, mostly when just using my browser or on my home screen. Sometimes happens in my lock screen before even opening anything up. Strangely enough it rarely happens when I am playing video games. Most of them are PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGE_AREA and IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. All my drivers should be up to date after I used Snappy driver

CPU: AMD FX 6300 Black EditionGPU: RX 460 (also tried:AMD Radeon HD7770)Mobo: ASRock N68-GS4 FXOS: Windows 10Hi guys, hoping someone can point me in the right direction here as I'm out of ideas. I upgraded my computer just before christmas 3 months ago in order to play some games smoother. Every now and then my computer will BSOD, once or twice a day, sometimes considerably more, once in a while it wouldn't crash all day. Not even necessarily when playing games.Sometimes it would blue screen before I even logged in, the error code will keep changing (I've listed most of these below.)DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFERKMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLEDPAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREAIRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUALFAULTY_HARDWARE_CORRUPTED_PAGESometimes the blue screen wouldn't even fully load, with words being cut off half way through and not actually gathering any data forcing me to hard restart. And sometimes I won't get a blue screen at all, it might just hard freeze or restart without any warning.More often than not when it freezes my headset makes an ear wrenching noise which sounds like white noise on steroids. Don't know if that helps troubleshooting.I've also tried removing the new ram stick I bought for the upgrade which had also changed nothing.A resolution error causing my game to crash made me think that it was a graphics card error that was causing these problems. I removed the card to get a refund (I'm upgrading either way) And for the time being replaced it with my old AMD R7770 which didn't improve anything, then used onboard graphics which made things even worse. At this point the screen would start going black on every start up prompting a video_tdr_error (which would apparently be a driver problem, I used AMDs cleaner to remove all drivers from my computer.) and a restart loop until eventually automatic repair would kick in.The computer runs in safe mode although im pretty sure I got one or two BSOD with the error codes I listed above.Managed to get a fix to boot it into standard windows, but problems would prompt again. I had multiple attempts at installing AMD display drivers with my old graphics card, but near the end of the download it would make the screen lose connection, go black and reboot entire system without asking me or notifying me. And device manager said i still had standard windows display drivers?device manager also didn't recognise my old graphics card (7770) apart from one of the times I hardware refreshed. However the issue continued without the graphics card.Hope this is enough information? Any help is appreciated. Cheers.

Hi guys As part of a general refresh, I purchased 4 sticks of 4gb (16gb total) HyperX Fury 1600MHz DDR3 RAM. Unfortunately, I can't get into Windows: I either get the dreaded BSoD, showing the error IRQL not_less_or_equal, or the computer restarts itself in a loop. I can enter the BIOS, which recognises all 16gb, at 1600MHz, but no further. I have tried booting into a fresh install of Windows on a different drive with the same result. My motherboard is a GA-P55M-UD2, which Gigabyte claims to support 1600MHz, and a max of 16gb (http://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-P55M-UD2-rev-10#ov). The BIOS is up to date. Nothing is overclocked currently. I was previously running 4 sticks of 2gb 1066MHz RAM. OS is Windows 10 64 bit. Any suggestions here? If further information is required, please ask and I'll provide the detail I can. Cheers, Dan

(Not sure if this is the right area for this) Hello, I have a problem with my Windows 10, it keeps Blue screening in the middle of use. I recently bought an SSD, installed a fresh win 10 on it and have been using it for a couple of weeks with no problems at all. But yesterday I started getting BSODs out of nowhere. The Microsoft support site the error screen links to has no useful information at all. I have googled and tried solving the problem but most of the solutions do not work. I have tried resetting windows but can't do that, it can never finish resetting because it runs into some problems or something, I'm guessing it encounters the same problem while resetting as it does in use. I tried to roll back windows, but can't because I haven't made any "savepoints" prior to this. I tried updating the chipset SATA controller as some people suggested, but it either blue screened in the middle of the installation or didn't help at all. Here's the error screen I'm getting: http://i.imgur.com/vuCKdyT.jpg My PC is self built a couple of years back, and the new SSD is a Corsair Force LE 240GB Specs: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz Msi Geforce GTX 960 2GB 8GB of DDR3 RAM 1600MHz Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 motherboard Secondary 1TB HDD (old main drive)

I recently brang back an old laptop of mine (6700HQ no GPU, Win 10 64 bit(by old I mean slow)) and twice in a week I got a blue screen that said: IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal. I have no idea why this is happening. I did change the integrated graphics setting a bit, but I doubt that't the reason. If you need more information, tell me.

Hi everyone, I recently build a brand new PC with all new parts, except the storage drives, PSU and disc drives. These are the specs: - i5 6600k (OC'd with Asus EZ-Tuner to about 4,2GHz, stable) with CM Hyper 212X - Asus Z170-K motherboard - 16GB DDR4 HyperX Fury @ 2133MHz - Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 1070 (OC'd with Gigabyte's OC Guru, stable) - 2x Samsung Evo 840 120GB SSD (one for Win 10, one for storage) - Toshiba 7200rpm 1TB HDD - 750 Watt CombatPower PSU - 2x DVD-RW combo drive - Acer Predator G7200 case So the problem is as follows: the RAM defaults to 1800MHz instead of 2133MHz. After some fiddling around, I found out that I had to enable XMP and I could manually set the RAM speed to 2133MHz. The PC boots up, everything works fine, but at seemingly completely random moments I get all sorts of blue screens. These are all about the RAM, according to the internet. And I guess that's correct, since I did a full system reinstall and defaulted everything in an attempt to solve the BSODs. The CPU and GPU are overclocked again and running stable and cool, but the RAM defaults back to 1800MHz, even with XMP enabled and the speeds set to 2133MHz. Asus' built-in EZ-tuner in the BIOS gives it a slight boost to about 1950MHz, but I cant set it to the actual speed of 2133MHz. The PC does run stable now, no more random blue screens. I didn't touch any of the voltages of any of the components. And the ram sticks are in the correct slots. So, why does setting my RAM to the actual speed causes random blue screens with different error messages each time, about every 15 minutes? Is there any way to resolve this or are my ram sticks dying? All the new components are barely 3 weeks old, but it could be a sort-of DOA. Thanks in advance! P.S. I don't remember exactly which blue screen errors were showing, but one was IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, one was KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED, and another one was SYSTEM_EXCEPTION_THREAD_NOT_HANDLED. All these error are gone now with the RAM running at a slower speed.

Hi guys i hope someone will answer because on my last post i didnt get answer. Problem is IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL BSOD when i turn on computer. I recently installed windows 10 on new fresh machine and this BSOD appears only on first boot. After i restart PC it goes into windows without problems and everything works fine. Games, youtube everything. Now i did installed windows on integrated graphics not on dedicated 1050ti. And im using my monitor plugged into integrated graphics card. Can that cause problem? I remind that after second restart windows boot and everything working fine. PS: I didnt buy yet adapter from DVI TO VGA so i can plug my monitor into dedicated card. And this version of windows i have i installed on so many machines and never had this BSOD error on any lap top or on any desktop so far and i installed on more then 20 machines! Please help.

Hey Guys, I have a i5-661 but the motherboard it's in I believe is faulty as no matter what Bios settings or PCI slot (for the graphics card) I use I can't avoid a irql_not_less_or_equal when trying to install Windows and a correspondingly annoying error when trying other OS's as well.I can't completely remove the graphics card either as the P7P55 LX motherboard doesn't have onboard graphics. The RAM is fine as it has been used in another rig previously. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks.

I posted this on the forums to the Razer Insider forums and it got deleted within a few minutes... go figure... I purchased the Ripsaw Capture Card a few days after it was available, and I received it, and out of the box it worked flawlessly. After about 3 or so days I decided to boot up my stream and play some Wii U and when I transitioned scenes, my computer BSOD'd with the error "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL(Ripsaw.sys)" ---------------------------------- It does this about 1/5 times I start OBS and use the capture card to play a game. So it works most of the time, but not all of the time BUT... when it works, it's amazing! I uninstalled the synapse with all the driver and fresh installed, and the issues persist still. I'm hesitant to stream because of this. I also lost my files several times for OBS, so I've had to uninstall, and re-do everything from scratch to get up and running again. I contacted support directly in hopes that it will come up as a problem that needs to be fixed, but in the meantime I thought I'd share and see if anyone here has any input. Thanks.

So I have Windows 8.1 64-bit installed on my 1 year old custom built PC. I pre-ordered GTA V in January and started to pre-load it today (via Rockstar Warehouse, with their download tools). I left the computer run all night (which I never do), to finish the download. In the morning at 5 o'clock, I checked my PC to see how far did I come with the download. It was almost finished so I went back to sleep. I left it unlocked with just the monitor turned off. When I woke up for the last time, I was going to check my PC again and there it was, at the lock screen. I immediately knew something went wrong (a BSOD), for the first time ever! I opened the "Event Viewer" and searched for the Critical error that should be logged. I found the error and like I assumed, it was a BSOD (unexpected shutdown). So I grabbed the BlueScreen Viewer on the internet to troubleshoot this issue and I found out that the error was IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, with a 0xA debug code. So I did a Memtest86 for 1 hour and it passed with 0 errors. So I thought to myself, it couldn't be the RAM sticks, right? Now I'm just left confused without an answer and worried. I have attached a screenshot of the report from BlueScreen Viewer below. I hope someone can help me out here. The system is overall stable as in rendering software as in games. My system specs: CPU: Intel Core i5 4670k (overclocked to 4.2GhZ) Motherboard: MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB, 2400Mhz (with XMP profile enabled) PSU: Corsair RM750W GPU: GIGABYTE GTX 780 WindForce 3X OC (+60 on core clock, +600 on memory clock, +5% power limit, + 0.375V) Corsair H80i (water cooling) http://gyazo.com/1f6884f92b1214d65e4f45a5c31a2a45

So basically at the moment i can't afford any replacements at the moment so so thats currently out the question. My specs are in my signature. My computer is basically getting really random BSOD's. One week they could not happen at all then the next day i can get like 4 in a day. Some of the error codes i can remember are; IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_EQUAL MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and a couple of others i cant remember. However i don't understand whats causing it. I started on a pirated copy of Windows 7. Then upgraded to Windows 10. 2 Days ago i fresh installed W10 and now running a fresh ISO boot of Windows 10. Every single OS and config has caused the BSOD;s and i dont know how to diagnose it. Memtest fails to spot anything. Startup repair, nothing. Windows Installation Repair, Nothing. Someone help. Please. It's really beginning to piss me the fuck off.

so i kept getting this weird BSOD right after power outage in my house, now my pc kept crashing after a period of use. before the power outage my pc has never ran into this weird problem. let's dive into it, i really hope someone can help me. the BSOD includes words like this: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (athuwbx.sys) i actually got screen shot of it but too lazy to transfer it, besides that is all it says and i didn't skip any details. i notice the dump file in my minidump folder but i can't upload it here for some administrator reason which i don't understand, it just says that i don't have the right to access that file which i do have the right to so yeah. really appreciate the help if you can, plus if the dump file is needed i'll use a software to read it and screen shot or copy paste it's content here.

Hello peeps I'm having some serious issues with BSODs. I have had none a while ago, about 2 weeks Last thing i changed in my PC was adding 2 more sticks of RAM in there (same model, same capacity, same speed as the old one) But BSODs didn't start right away, after changing RAM, so that's what confuses me. Also tested the RAM with windows built in memory tester and memtest86, none of the 2 showed any errors. Also did disk check on all of my SSDs and HDD, all good. Did scan everything with malwarebytes and AV, both found nothing The one thing that's most suspicious to me is GPU. BSODs range from irql_not_less_or_equal, driver_verifier_detected_violation, kernel_security_check_failure, maybe some more, these i remember from the top of my head. I did check the minidump file and it showed up the nvlddmkm.sys several times as the culprit. So far, I uninstalled the graphics drivers, reverted back to old driver, switched GPU between normal and LN2 mode but it always BSODs on me usually at least once a day, today twice so far. I had win 7 and upgraded to 8.1 recently, since I was having these problems even when on win 7, I thought that new, fresh install would fix it, but it didn't. My biggest fear is, that it's something to do with GPU hardware, is that possible? Also open to suggestions to fix this Thanks Specs in profile

Hi everybody. My PC had been restarting after shutdown, suggesting a system problem. I've changed a setting to fix that
