  2. My computer consistently crashes when playing newer Steam games

    Hello. I am trying to play Steam games on my computer, but I find that after playing certain games (newer, more graphically-intensive games) crash anywhere between 5 minutes to an hour or two. They all give me different crash messages every time (driver_overran_stack_based_buffer,
    IRQL not greater or equal to, etc.). I ran tests through console commands and Windows Memory Diagnostics, but nothing bad came back. I checked my drivers and updated as many as I could, and downloaded the latest updates from Windows. Just short of wiping the
    whole thing clean (which may not resolve the issue still), I tried everything. And it ONLY crashes when I try to play newer Steam games.

    This has been going on for a month now and is incredibly frustrating. If you have any questions free to ask.

  3. latest n73 4.0736.3.2.1 firmware

    the equalizer works perfectly fine...Try editing or creating a new equalizer when you are not playing any song...and then apply it when you start playing the track.

    IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL when playing games.

    Hi LogS,

    Welcome to the 10forums.

    Are you using Driver Booster 3 for updating your drivers?
    Are you aware of the program DriverRestore?

    Just to note
    Code: Standard PS/2 Keyboard ACPI\PNP0303\0 This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed. Microsoft PS/2 Mouse ACPI\PNP0F03\0 This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed.[/quote] If you are using a program like Ccleaner please stop using it while troubleshooting.
    This because programs like Ccleaner remove dump files that are needed to troubleshoot.
    Or configure Ccleaner to not remove dump files:

    Cause of the crash
    Code: Probably caused by : memory_corruption[/quote] Could be due to a driver trying to access invalid memory or the memory is giving corrupted data.
    Please test your memory first.

    MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.

    I have a better advice.

    Don't use driver updaters programs
    Best method is manually installing the drivers.
    Those programs cause really so much trouble.
    There were some people who couldn't fix the problems that driver booster had caused, they were forced to reinstall Windows as their hardware was fine.
