    IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD Possible Hardware Incompatibility?


    Hi there,I'm getting BSODs and freezes at random times since I've built this computer. I'm wondering if I mixed hardware parts that are not friendly with each other? I built the PC off of the PC part picker website, there were no compatibility issues found with my selected parts. I attached my PC specs and the minidump zip files. I have other files I can upload as well. Let me know what else I can provide and I'd be happy to.Thanks.https://drive.google.com/file/d/17-r1E89OxgEVsSZbASUjHwP0XZxpnyaM/view?usp=sharing minidump ziphttps://drive.google.com/file/d/193NKWq2VU1l2CbDLi73Lv7L_rM8zX

    But there are other common causes of it:
    • Incompatible Drivers
    • Malfunctioning hardware
    • Registry Issues
    • Malware attacks
    • Incomplete driver installation

    To solve the problem, you could try using the following common methods:
    Method 1: Use SFC and DISM
    Step 1: Press Windows + X and then select Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    Step 2: Type in the following command and then press Enter.
    sfc/scannow
    Step 3: Wait for the process to finish and it will show you results. If Windows can repair your files, it should say that the corrupted files are repaired. If the process is stuck, the Windows could well fail to recover itself. You will have to use the DISM tool to repair your Windows sinceit’s a more efficient and powerful tool than SFC, use these steps:

    Step 6: The computer will search for drivers online and install them.

    Method 3: Check Your Memory and Hardware
    If the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error is not related to the software, then some hardware glitches might be causing the issue. In such a scenario, you should try testing the RAM of your device. Fortunately, Windows offers a utility tool called memory diagnostics. Refer to the following instructions to learn how to access the utility tool.

    Step 1: Press Win + Q to open the search box, enter Memory Diagnostic to open the Windows Diagnostic utility.

    Help with BSOD, Dump files and system info attached.

    Let's try to fix your issue. IRQL stands for Interrupt request level and IRQL defines the hardware priority at which your processor operates at any given time. A thread running at low IRQL can be interrupted when a code runs at a higher
    IRQL, causing IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD. IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD happens because of these possible reasons:

    • Corrupted System files
    • Incompatible Driver
    • Faulty hardware items
    • Incorrect software installation
    • Anti-virus software that's meddling with Windows Settings
    We'd like to know more about your issue. Kindly answer these following questions:

    • Have you made any changes to your PC prior to the issue?
    • Do you have an anti-virus software installed on your PC?
    • Can you still boot your PC?
    • Are you certain that there is no hardware issues on your device?

    We'll be looking forward for your reply.

    Regards.

    BSOD IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

    Hey, The BSOD IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL message is related to a hardware problem and more namely a driver problem. It can usually be solved with a quick driver uninstall and reinstall from your manufacturer or through windows.

    I suggest downloading DDU which will delete your drivers and make everything clean. AFter that find the manufacturer for your GPU and reinstall the drivers. Or go through device manager and use that.
