  1. BSOD. DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. iaStorA.sys


    Ive been having this problem where when i do heavy duty tasks on my laptop such as play games which are relevantly "heavy" games and it just blue screens. Usually when bluescreening its accompanied with overheating. The subject pretty much says a lot of whats happening. When bluescreened theres a writing that says "Stop code: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" and theres also this thing that said "What failed: iaStorA.sys"

    :)

    BSOD driver_irql_not_less_or_equal iaStorA.sys

    The minidump file you posted does not appear to be from the same computer where you generated the sysinfo - one appears to be Intel based the other AMD.

    Do you have two computers experiencing issues?

    Can you provide a sysinfo from the computer experiencing the BSOD referencing the iastora.sys ?

    BSOD: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

    I have been getting random BSOD (DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL - Source: nwifi.sys) in the last 3 days. They seem to only appear when playing videos on YouYube, but it might be a coincidence.

    What has changed in the last 3 days?

    Nothing on the laptop itself. I plugged in a new keyboard and mouse (both USB), and a USB hub (USB-C).
    I also installed new drivers for the Intel Graphics and "Intel(R) Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework Manager" as suggested by Dell Driver Updater, but this was an attempt to fix the BSOD, which already happened before updating these drivers.

    What are the laptop info and specs?

    • Text version: MEGA
    • Speccy version (can be imported into Speccy): MEGA
    • MsInfo32 Output: MEGA

    Most recent dump files?

    This is the content of C:\Windows\Minidump: (all 3 are the most recent BSOD dumps and match with the date and time of the BSODs)

    https://mega.nz/#!FtJQmIba!sYXWqG3ayUyaIp7Vf6wnQrhJMYldHwIg8tw46cNp2fo

    What have you tried?

    I have checked with the Dell System Detect utility to see if all the drivers were up to date; 2 weren't and I updated them (as written above) but that didn't solve the issue.

    I have cleaned the system Registry with the CCleaner utility, but that didn't solve the issue.

    What can I do?

    EDIT:

    Upon suggestion, I updated the killer drivers.
    All seemes fine of a while, then, after the laptop went to suspended state, I noticed the external mouse stopped working, while the touchpad worked.
    After plugging and unplugging, I rebooted.
    Laptop stuck to reboot for 6 min (usually takes 6 seconds) then BSOD: DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE.

    BSOD. DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. iaStorA.sys

    iaStora.sys BSOD, minidump and MSinfo32

    In the past 3 days I've suddenly started getting BSOD, 4 in total now.

    I'll typically either be playing a video game or browsing the web in Chrome.

    The BSOD states the following:

    Stop code: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

    What failed: iaStora.sys

    My research has led me to a bunch of stuff mentioning Intels Rapid Storage Technology. I haven't messed with or updated any drivers relating to this since I received the laptop in January of 2016. MSI's website lists the same drivers that were available for
    download when I first got the system (published in 2015).

    I'm running 2 Samsung SSD's in Raid 0, so it's my understanding that I need this driver(s). Some of the posts I've read have mentioned removing the driver resolves the problem, but if I'm not mistaken, that would mean no more RAID setup, correct? If so, this
    is not an option for me. The machine was custom built with this purpose in mind.

    Below is my zip with minidumps and MSinfo32. Please let me know if you need more information, and thank you in advance.
