    Hi,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    I am sorry to know that you are facing issues with ‘BSOD driver IRQL not less or equal’. This could be due to driver issue. I suggest you to update the drivers by visiting manufacturer's website and check if that helps.

    1. In Device Manager, click the Driver tab in the device's Properties dialog box.

    2. Click Update Driver to start the Hardware Update Wizard.

    3. Follow the instructions to update the driver.

    If the issue persist I would suggest you to install the latest driver in compatibility mode and check if issue persist.

    Follow the steps below on how to install driver in compatibility mode:

    1. Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website and save it on your local disk.

    2. Right click on the setup file of the driver and select “Properties”.

    3. Select “Compatibility” Tab.

    4. Place a check mark next to “Run this program in Compatibility mode” and select operating system from the drop down list.

    5. Let the driver install and then check the functionality.

    Stop Code "Driver IRQL not less or equal" after switching to Windows Insider Fast Ring

    Hi Nikola,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forum.

    • What is the make and model of the machine?
    • Are you aware of any changes that happened on the computer prior to this issue?

    The DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL indicates that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access pageable memory at a process IRQL that was too high.

    This occurs when a driver tries to access an address that is pageable (or that is completely invalid) while the IRQL was too high. This bug check is usually caused by drivers that have used improper addresses or a driver that
    was trying to execute code when the code itself was paged out. Possible causes for the page fault include the following:

    • The function was marked as pageable and was running at an elevated IRQL (which includes obtaining a lock).
    • The function call was made to a function in another driver, and that driver was unloaded.
    • The function was called by using a function pointer that was an invalid pointer.

    I suggest you to upload the mini dump files to know the root cause of the issue and troubleshoot accordingly.

    Copy the Mini Dump files from C:\Windows\Mini Dump to your Desktop, zip up the files, and upload to the Cloud. Post the link for the same, so that we can examine.

    Meanwhile, you may want to try the troubleshooting steps listed in
    Troubleshoot blue screen errors and check if it works for you.

    Regards,

    DRIVER IRQL NOT LES OR EQUAL (wdiwifi.sys)

    Hi Micah,

    This bug check is usually caused by drivers that have used improper addresses.

    If the first parameter has the same value as the fourth parameter, and the third parameter indicates an execute operation, this bug check was likely caused by a driver that was trying to execute code when the code itself was paged out. Possible causes for
    the page fault include the following:


    • The function was marked as pageable and was running at an elevated IRQL (which includes obtaining a lock).

    • The function call was made to a function in another driver, and that driver was unloaded.

    • The function was called by using a function pointer that was an invalid pointer.
    I suggest you to refer the below Microsoft article and check if this helps.

    Thank you.
