BSOD, Driver_IRQL_not_less_or_equal (unexpected Shutoffs As Well)
Jul 28, 2012
I've recently gotten the DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL bluescreen at least twice. Once while playing WoW, but the other time while merely browsing the internet with Google Chrome. However, I've previously also had unexpected shutdowns where my computer would just quit. Wouldn't even bluescreen. Just shut off everything.
why a newly built PC keeps getting BSOD and doing random shutoffs. I have replaced the memory and MB and have tested with and without the video card or OB video. I have also tried a different PSU to see if that would help. I am leaning towards a bad CPU or incompatible memory, but wanted to see what you folks think first. Also, the system has been reloaded twice. The first time was a new install and then I reloaded everything after I installed the new MB.
edit: forgot the system specs: OS - Windows 7 Pro 64 MB - Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H CPU - Intel i7-3770 RAM - Patriot PD000256-PXQ316G1866ELQK PC3-15000 1866MHz 16GB (4x4GB) Kit Video - AMD FirePro V4900 1GB DP/DVI HF PSU - Rosewill Hive-650
I purchased this system 2 weeks ago. I have had 2 BSODs within the time span I purchased it. I think it's the same one every time. McAfee (came with the netbook)Specs:Model: ACER AO722Processor AMD C-60 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 1.00 GHZ
I've been having recurring bsod errors lately. It went from once a month, to once a week, to once a day, to a few minutes after startup.I haven't really changed anything... they have just become more frequent. I'm almost positive it's a driver issue. I ran driver verifier with the 3 that create false positives disabled and it caused a bsod on startup everytime.
I managed to fix another problem with my computer, it was fine then earlier after work it BSOD then started freezing, I had a quick look at other forum posts but couldn't see anything exactly the same so here are my files
I have recently built a computer, and over the last few days I have had multiple BSOD. These occur when my girlfriend is downloading Sim3 "stuff", but has occured when I am getting a sc2 patch as well. Here is the info.
I have only had the KerNEL eception occur once, and it is most recent. I noticed that for some of the DRIVER exceptions its file description points to the RALINK wireless adapter. I have uninstalled and reinstalled its drivers, and have used ccleaner to try and clean out old drivers. As well, I have uninstalled my old antivirus.
I am using my system from 2 years. From past eight days I am observing BSOD.I have attached dump in zipped format created by W7F diagnostic tool.I have also attached image from CPU-Z about system.Finally I attached report from PassMark RAMMon.Image and HTML report is inside the Zip folder.
recently i have received 2 bsod. yesterday when i was playing dota 2(with itunes in background), and today when i was just browsing the internet and listening to Internet. i am reasonably sure that this is coming from a driver issue(not video drivers, i have tested several of those and the problem persist) since i have tested my computer several times with prime 95, memtest86 with no errors/issues.i also reformatted my computer less then a month ago because of this very same problem, i couldn't figure out which driver was causing my computer to crash, and was problem free for nearly 2 1/2 weeks, up in till a few days ago.in the days before the bsod i installed 3 things. daemon tools lite and fraps and windows updates. i have since uninstalled both programs.last thing as well is i have a separate hard drive where i keep several installed files on and store various videos/music/etc, i don't know if this is relevant or not.
I have a fairly recent computer that seems to crash at random times, does not matter if it is under load or not. The driver causing this seems to be NETIO.SYS , which according to google has to to with network communication , i have updated all network drivers and the error still occurs?
i've just changed motherboard card, memory and cpu to the new one:gigabyte p67a-d3-b3, intel core i3 2120, patriot ddr3 2x4096mb 1600mhz cl8.0 viper xtreme divison 2 llk.i changed in bios memory to 1600mhz 8-9-8-24 1.5 v (instead of 1.65v (i couldnt find option to get it to 1.65v in bios, when i changed to 1.6v system didnt run). after 1 day i got bsod. but i changed back memory to the orginal state and after about 1 hour system just got shocked. bsod didn't show up, but computer was frozen and non stop i could hear beep sound.i didn't uninstall drivers from old motherboard (don't know how). i installed new drivers for new motherboard / cpu. i didn't install again graphic card drivers (i was told i don't need to). i didn't make format either (i'd like to avoid that as much as i can).in attachment everything you want: minidump / rammon / cpu-z / and seven forums tool logs.
edit:i'd like to add that each time computer got frozen was while i was watching something on Internet?
Just to let people know that the update KB2685813, has been causing a BSOD since the update downloaded on the 22/11/2012I went thru each update on that date making a note of each on shutdown. The BSOD remained until tonight when I uninstalled the above mentioned item."This article introduces an update that installs User-Mode Driver Framework (UMDF) version 1.11 on Windows operating systems.UMDF supports user-mode drivers that are written specifically to use it. UMDF driver packages that are built by using Windows Driver Kit for Windows 7 can automatically redistribute and install version 1.11 of the files. During driver package installation, the package checks the computer to determine what version of UMDF is currently installed, and then the package updates the files to 1.11 if they are an older version.For more information about UMDF, visit the following Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN) website:General information about User-Mode Driver Framework For more information about UMDF version information, visit the following MSDN website:General information about UMDF version information"
I have recently had a crash dump file appear in c:\windows\minidump I am uploading it here, for those who may to review it, however, i cannot specify what the cause of this problem may have been?
I am experiencing some problems with my WINDOWS 7 64bit system, it begun last night by FREEZING at random (e.g. surfing web, watching videos or playing games) fallowed by the all mighty windows BLUE SCREEN. I tired to view the minidump files using Win-Dbg but there is some problem with the SYMBOLS reading.......I can roll back my OS with SYSTEM RESTORE but......

This has happened twice now in the past week. Computer will randomly shutdown unexpectedly (cold and dark) with the BSOD c000021a on startup. I am able to get windows to boot again using startup repair, but I'm getting sick of having unexpected crashes.
i noticed if i keep my system on overnight i will find an error message saying "windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown" with the following messages
Problem signature:

Its seems to happen when i leave the system on over night, i also had a problem with the system coming out of sleep mode so i disabled sleep and hibernation, i feel like the 2 may be related, can anyone help?

Trouble shooting done so far:-
Memtest 86 - no errors after a full pass.
updated video card drivers no help ( also windows message center is saying i dont have the video card driver for a hd 5700 series card installed, but i have a 5800 series card, with up to date drivers.
I am not computer savvy when it comes to these sorts of things. The heading states it all and am wanting a bit more of an insight at any problems that may be occurring etc.. Also, as of late I have noticed that my DVD player refuses at times to read a DVD movie or game title, and only after a few open / closes it seems to work. - x86 (32-bit) or x64 ? Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit - the original installed OS on the system? As Above - an OEM or full retail version? Retail Version
i've been getting bsods for the past couple of months. i'm running windows 7 professional x64 on a one-year-old sony vaio vpcs12c7e laptop. it's the original os which came installed on the system, and i've never re-installed it. the bsods all share some basic features:
they're all 0x0000007f unexpected_kernel_mode_trap errors (see attached dump files). they all happen when watching content online (usually adobe flash based, such as Internet) though occasionally offline when using vlc player. they all happen seemingly sporadicly - either thirty seconds or two hours under the above conditions.
the bsods also occur more instantaneously when streaming high-quality videos or multiple files at once. they started happening directly after i inserted an empty usb memory stick from a friend into my laptop. i can't recall the make or model of the usb stick. anyway, here are the dump files.

I'm not pretty sure when it occurs but usually happens when I'm using firefox (but mainly randomly).
About two weeks ago I was casually using my ACER ASPIRE 7736G. I was looking at a new digital camera on Amazon when all of a sudden my computer shut down and rebooted. I logged back on but after about ten minutes I got the dread blue screen of death with the tag at the top saying:DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUALIn a vain effort to correct something that had gone wrong I used the recovery disk, everything went ok
Moderatly skilled PC user here: Have had a few BSODs lately that seem to be happening from a video, but GPU is fine and not heating too horribly, relatively new GTX 285- also did 10 runs through memtest just in caseThey have variously been caused by drivers for my FortKnox Firewall (Once), ntoskrnl.exe, (3), and hal.dll. All happen when playing a video of some type, never happens in any game. Also my Media Player Classic seems to be crashing when I try to open any video type- though Flash player and VLC player work fine. For some reason I also think it might be a problem with a network adapter or something too
when i open a video file in media player my system shuts down with the similar message posted by other users above : "Error: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"
problem began after setting up wireless printer network - system dumped - now will not always boot - went through auto fix process and got Driver_irql_not_less_or_equal. Tech info feedback from auto fix: Stop: 0x000000D1, 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000001, 0xFFFFF88003468d29 THEN usbohci.sys - Address FFFFF88003468D29 base at FFFFF88003466000, Datestamp 4a5bcc06
a friend asked me to check his pc because he is having crash issues after a video card upgrade. well, the new video card is zotac geforce gt 520.pc just crashes when he is watching Internet, play games, etc...i have been able to recreate the crashat the program startup, all the components are being checked and when it comes to video card it hangs a little and than crashes.pc wizard can load normally in win 7 safe mode so no crash or bsod.[code]
I recently just reformatted my OS partition and reinstalled all the given drivers in the disc that comes with my Asus laptop A42JV. Only different was instead of the Win 7 64 bit Home edition, I installed it with the professional edition from my university and msdnaa's website. Also, I updated the GPU driver with one I downloaded from Asus website.
I got a MEMORY_MANAGEMENT BSOD while browsing the internet yesterday, then some hours later, while playing a game, I got the DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL one. The next day, I got another MEMORY_MANAGEMENT while watching a video. This is a new system, about 1 month old, so I'm pretty worried about this.I also noticed that I got some corrupted downloads in the last few days, though that could be a coincidence.After getting the second BSOD, I left the windows memory test running overnight, doing an extended test. It did two passes and found no errors. Chkdisk found nothing either. I noticed the WMI errors (event ID 10) in the event log around the same time that I got the BSOD and ran the script MS provides to fix it, though from everything I read it was probably a coincidence and unrelated to the BSOD. It did not happen again after I fixed it but it hasn't been long since I ran it.
