Windows 10: BSOD Stop code IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Getting random BSODS all related to the same driver crash, but different stop codes.


This time the stop code was IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Bug Check Code: 0x00000000a

Parameter 1: ffffdccf`3f961628

Parameter 2: 00000000`00000002

Parameter 3: 00000000`00000000

Parameter 4: fffff801`15165690

Caused by driver: ntoskrnl.exe

Caused by address: ntoskrnl.exe+1b3ef0


I've verified all drivers are up to date, ran memory tests, performed a clean re-install of the GPU drivers, and ran dell diagnostics. I can't figure out what is causing that system driver to crash.

IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal

sigh
If your computer auto restarts on BSOD find the setting in windows to make it stop.
Second step is to look for the error code of the BSOD.
Perhaps easier would be to use an online application such as bluescreen viewer.
Once you know which driver is causing the problem you can look further into fixing it.

 

BSOD irql_not_less_or_equal crashes

That is actually the only thing that shows up in the bsod before the pc restarts:

stop code: irql_not_less_or_equal

 

Irql_not_less_or_equal

So I have this clients PC that blue screens and gives a IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL STOP 0x0000000A error message. Error Goblin (link in sig) says the following:

And I have NO IDEA what the hell that means. It has wrapped around my head 5 times and caused it to explode. Ive ran memtest for 7 and a half hours and it didnt find any errors. I will probably run it again overnight just to be safe. Ive also cleaned out the computer with an air compressor and checked the hard drive for bad sectors are none are to be found.

Im trying like hell to avoid reinstalling Windows but it seems unlikely.

Im going to try updating some drivers and see what happens. Some of the drivers on this computer date back to 2007.

Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys.

EDIT:

Alright so it doesnt look like ill be able to get onto the internet to do anything because nearly every time i try, i get the BSOD. Format seems imminent.
