Computer getting laggier every blue screen.

myusernameistaken

I built my friend a computer and he downloaded a driver from Epson for a X-440 something printer. We then got a bunch of blue screens that almost never had the same error code. I reset windows a few times, and it worked again for a while, but now his PC blue screens every 6 hours, or every 30 mins, but never when gaming, and always with the error code: irql_not_less_or_equal, or driver_irql_not_less_or_equal. His Bios says he doesn't have any RAM. I have cleared the Cmos a few times too. What can I do? Wipe his SSD completely? Would that have any major effects tot eh SSD? Is it a virus? Thanks. Parts list:

curious to see what this problem is!
reset windows… with that you mean you completely wiped out the drives and installed windows again? 
most of the time i've had that code was with faulty overclocking…. not enough voltage to sustain a good oc

Odd, I wasn't overclocking. I reset windows through windows. Do you have any recommendations for how to completely wipe a drive?
