Windows 10: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL d1 - Help

Hello, i have been getting a bluescreen for a little over a week i think it has been? I have tried alot of different solutions such as;- Reinstall network drivers- DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth thing where you did some steps in CMD that took a while to verify integrity of files atleast i think that was what it did- Update bios- Update graphic card- Tried going through and updating everything in Device Manager there were no updates- Ran Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool- Scanned for viruses- Updated all windows 11 updates from Windows Updates even the optional onesSeeing as i tried

driver_irql_not_less_or_equal (d1) (nvlddmkm.sys)


Hi


When I play demanding games I can get a bsod, the latest game being Rise of the Tomb Raider. This is the first game that bsods within 10 minutes no matter what. And so far this is what I can read out of the .dmp files : "driver_irql_not_less_or_equal (d1)" - (nvlddmkm.sys).

What happens is: without warning or fps drop the screen goes black (disconnects). Then the sound goes on for a bit, before it's cut goes into a loop. Then the PC restarts, or I have to push the restart button.
I have used the Display Driver Uninstaller 15.7.4.0 and reinstalled the Nvidia driver. Daemon tools have also been removed. Have stopped the Nvidia streamer service through msconfig too, just to see if it helped. No luck with any of the "fixes". I have run Furmark test without any issues, and a "sfc/ scannow". I've been monitoring the CPU and GPU temp before the crash, but no spikes in temperature.
*Side note - If I run Intel extreme tuning utility CPU stress test, the CPU reach almost 100 C in about 3 min. But that's under 100% load. But I guess that's unrelated, since the CPU don't get that load or temp during games. Still a indicator that something is wrong. And the Intel Diagnostic tool tells me there is something wrong with CPU Freq (Module - CPUFreq.exe did not create a results file.) , and it does not pass the stress test there as well. But I can't find anything about that in the .dmp file.


I'm not experienced enough to understand the rest. But so far by comparing similar problems others have had, I understand that Rise of the Tomb Raider are sending an invalid call/path to the Nvidia driver and makes it crash. correct me if i'm wrong.

Any tips on what to do?

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high. This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If kernel debugger is available get stack backtrace.

Hello, Ben Vu



Welcome to the Microsoft Community



Thank you for your feedback. I have analyzed the blue screen log you provided.



According to the analysis of the memory dump file provided, the system encountered a blue screen of death (BSOD) when performing certain operations, and the error code is DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1). This error is usually caused by the driver trying to access an invalid or paged memory address at a high priority interrupt request level (IRQL).



The modules with problems are "kbdclass.sys" and "HKKbdFltr.sys".



HKKbdFltr.sys may be a third-party keyboard filter driver, which may conflict or have compatibility issues with the system's keyboard driver (kbdclass.sys).



Based on the above analysis, you can try the following methods.



1. Try to update all related drivers, especially the keyboard driver. You can go to the keyboard manufacturer's website to download the latest driver and install it.

If HKKbdFltr.sys is a driver for a specific software or hardware, try updating or uninstalling the software/hardware driver.



2. If you have any keyboard-related third-party software installed (such as keyboard macro tools, keyboard enhancement tools, etc.), try uninstalling these software and see if the problem is solved.



I hope this information helps. If you have any questions, please let me know and I will be happy to help you further.



Best regards
