Windows 10: General bad performance and IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Since doing a clean install with 10 I have had many performance issues from explorer being slow, context menus slow, start menu not working, and so forth. CHKDSK and SFC /SCANNOW return normal results.

I also have a lot of issues with my video driver kernel crashing abd being recoverd. This mainly happens on wake. (GTX 970). I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled as a first attempt, used DisplayDriverUninstaller on the second attempt, and on the third used Revo, DDU, CCleaner, and windows to remove it and I still get crashes.

Finally I came to using the driver verifer tool to try and force a BSOD. After two days of use this is what I get, "IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL".

iqrl_not_less_or_equal

Hello Everyone! I recently hit with the irql_not_less_or_equal virus. When the blue screen popped up my computer automatically restarted. My computer seemed to be fine afterwards but then restarted again. I researched the virus and found a helpful YouTube
video that lead me into my window logs folder. Inside of my system folder I found a lot of red error messages that I was told are not viruses but issues with memory. I was told to copy and paste the error texts and on to notepad in order to help investigate
the problem. I have attached a link with many error messages that I have been getting within the past month and it continues on down at least 5 of similar errors for each date. Please if you have any information about this virus or I how I can solve the problem
please let me know. I greatly appreciate it!

We do need the actual log files (called a DMP files) as they contain the only record of the sequence of events leading up to the crash, what drivers were loaded, and what was responsible.

Please follow our instructions for finding and uploading the files we need to help you fix your computer. They can be found here
If you have any questions about the procedure please ask

 

Hi zenixnet,

Welcome to the 10forums.

A quick tipPartition Y doesn't have enough free space.
Every partition needs at least 10-15% free space.
Please move some files from partition Y.


Warning Less free space could cause BSOD's
It seems that a VMware driver caused the problem.
Please update VMware or remove it.

The only thing that they have common is that it is all about shutting down software because it is not reacting anymore.
