Windows 10: multiple occurances of IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Yes, I am running 5.01 and I do not push an keys. I just let it run.
The temp varies between 60c and 67c in the 5 or 6 minutest\ that I watched it this morning before the screen goes blank.
When the screen goes blank I can't tell if it's still running. because there is no hard disk involved I don't here that clicking sound. Even when it's running it's hard to tell. I do not see any lights on my machine clicking however.
I have noticed that when I reboot after the screen goes blank that it seems to come up in safe mode. almost like it is crashing and leaving it in a bad state. It takes a couple of reboots before it comes back up normally.
Here's a screen shot while it was running.

I'm wondering if moving my memory around, or simply the removing and reinserting of the memory might do something.
Still doesn't explain the memtest86+ hanging.

 

It might yes, if the slot is the cause, but then you would have to replace your mainboard because that would mean that your mainboard is faulty.

 

just a question. You said you don't hear your hard disk clicking. Do you hear clicking when it is running? What hard drive(s) do you have?

 

It's not really clicking. It's that chatter sound. I have several Seagates. The os drive is fairly new. Maybe a little over a year.

 

Please run Seatools for DOS on all of your Mechanical hard drives http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials...s-how-use.html

 

Well my primary drive is an Hitachi, but the other two are Seagates. I ran the SeaTools for DOS, Basic Short Tests and all 3 passed. Attached screenshot of results

Many times they will pass the short test, but if there is a problem it will fail the long test.

 

Ok. I was just following those instructions. I'll run the long tests.

 

Yes, I didn't give proper instructions.

 

Not you. The instructions in the page. Your instructions are great

 

When I ask someone to run Seatools, I usually ask for the short and long test. I didn't with you for some reason.

 

I'm having the same problem as I did with the memtest86+. I started with the Hitachi drive and 3 times it gets to about 1% maybe 2% and then the screen goes dark and no system response. I tired running on the other two disks with the same problem.
So I played around with things when I would get these hangs. The box I have, Cooler Mixer, has two buttons for power. They light up. The lower one flickers while the SeaTools is running. It continues to flicker when the hangs occur. I then click on keys and no response. I eject the boot CD and no response and the lights keep flickering. I've waited up to five minutes and the system never responds. I finally need to hit ctrl-alt-del to get back the system.
Because this hang is happening while running the SeaTools diagnostic I'm wondering if the problem goes back to mother board or RAM. We aren't even using the disks when running this tool.
I just wish I could get this memtest86+ to finish.

 

Carl, please use your system, but if you don't have one, get you software that will read your CPU and your GPU temps. Use your system and run it pretty hard, if you game, play some games. Keep track of both temps at all times. If you get a BSOD please upload the DM Log Collector again. If you don't have temp monitoring software, I can give you some suggestions. I want to rule out overheating as the cause.

 

if you have some temp software please provide recommendations.
I don't game but I do have Digital Audio workstation (DAW) software that might task the system.

 

For the GPU most manufacturers have a utility that will work. Most are overclocking utilities but are very good at reading temps and settings. If you don't have one MSI Afterburner is good (MSI Global) for the CPU I like either Core Temp or Real Temp
