Windows 10: Random BSOD IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Hello everyone,


My PC has been crashing for quite some time now.

The Crashes are REALLY RANDOM. Some times its like 2 Months with no crash at all and then it comes a week where i get BSOD like every hour or more...


One of the BSODs i get is the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.

I googled it and found many similar topics everywhere. Suggestions where to do all sorts of things. Memtests. Drivetests. Stresstests. I reinstalled windows looooots of times and a driver verifier.

I did everything and nothing found any problems only driver verifier BSODed instantly before it could even fully load Windows when restarting after enable driver verifier. I had to go in save mode and disable driver verifier to get into windows again. If i remember correctly i did the settings to "check every driver" even the windows ones. I don't have the Dump after enabling driver varifier sadly, but i got the dump of the "random" BSOD from today.

Often times it is while playing games, but i had the bluescreen while surfing the internet too.


Here is my mindump: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AgM1e7UJyrGcjhoLTTI8AxPb2KGB?e=JZ3GcQ


Please let me know if you need any other informations... i REALLY need help with this since i can't fix it on my own anymore.


If you can already see what the problem is in the minidump file, please let me know what's wrong.


Thanks in advance,


Markus

Getting random BSOD (IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL)

Hello MS-Community,

I have been getting bugged by this for over a week now. I have a Dell 5547 laptop which had Win8.1 preinstalled in it. I installed Ubuntu over it in a different disk partition after a month of purchase. After that , I have been getting random BSOD saying
'IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL'. There isn't a fixed action which triggers the BSOD. I have looked up in the internet and followed one of the suggestions to run the 'Driver Verifier'. However, no luck. Even after running the Driver Verifier, it does not produce a
detailed dump file.

It is also worth noting that I clean installed Windows 10 replacing Windows8.1. All went fine for 3 or 4 days but as soon as I installed the GRUB repair for my dual-boot in my laptop, boom! I've been getting bombed by this BSOD time and again. It is really
frustrating.

I have attached the two dmp files along with this. One is prior to running the 'Driver Verifier' (giving the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL bsod) and the second one is after (giving a differed bsod 'SPECIAL_POOL_DETECTED_MEMORY_CORRUPTION').

Link to the dmp files are below:

Please Help!

Much Thanks.

 

Random BSOD IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0x0000000a)


I keep getting a BSOD reading IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL along with instances where my computer just locks up completely. It happens at random and I haven't been able to figure out what's causing it. If my computer doesn't lock up on startup or crashes during use it runs fine without problems. Event Logs list the bugcheck code as 0x0000000a (0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000, 0xfffff8015f2f42b0). I've attached the zip as instructed.

 

Random BSOD while browsing internet


BitDefender is nothing special. mwac.sys causes BSODs anywhere.
A tiny documentation can be found here: Solved Random BSODs - Windows 10 Forums
In that very thread, the suggested action apparently worked.

The storage and network filters of any third party antivirus can cause BSODs. Neither MBAM nor BitDefender is any special. For a regular antivirus, it may be shifted to an alternative; but MBAM has no alternative. So a clean install of the said program is the most feasible first step.
As far as the first step is not failing, it is better to not think for the second step. Because the BSODs are not universal, failure at the first step is not universal; and success at the second step is also not universal.
That is why I posted that my suggestion may work, or may not. Let us see where it goes.
