Windows 10: BSOD: Kmode exception not handled AND driver irql not less or equal afd.sys

Hello there,


over the past several months I have been getting blue screen of deaths on my gaming PC once every 5-10 days or so, at random. 95% of the BSODs show the error code "kmode exception not handled" while just today I got a new message that read "driver irql not less or equal - afd.sys". I have read that it could possibly be a driver issue, a memory issue, or even a bios issue. Id really appreciate help that could guide me in any of these directions. I have also read that minidumps could be of help, which I have located. I can provide some of these if necessary. Thanks!

IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL / KMODE EXCEPTION HANDLED at installation of Windows

Hi andy4117,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community

1. Did you installed Windows 10 on this computer before?
   
2. Are you trying to install Windows by booting from the disc or USB?
   
3. When you says MBR – GPT, May I know the complete error message that you are receiving, when you are installing Windows?
   
4. Did you unplugged all the external device, apart from Mouse and keyboard?
   

Usually, IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL / KMODE EXCEPTION HANDLED errors are seen if there are faulty hardware, drivers or anti-virus programs. As you are trying to install Windows 10, you can try the steps to perform a Custom Installation
of Windows 10 by booting from a disc or USB.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL could be due to faulty hardware problem, faulty system service problem and KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED could be due to Hardware incompatibility and Faulty device driver or system service

Constant BSOD's (have dump file) link: Driver irql not less or equal, kernel security check failure, kmode exception not handled, interrupt exception not handled on Windows 10

For a year now i have had constant BSOD's (Driver irql not less or equal... kernel security check failure.... kmode exception not handled...interrupt exception not handled)

I have tried uninstall all non essential programs, I have checked my drivers, I have reformatted twice and still have no idea what is causing the crashes.

If anyone is able to help, I ran driver verifier and created a dump file of the crash
