Irql_not_less_or_equal

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 09:04 PM

Hi,
About 30seconds after i start up windows vista i get the blue screen of death saying IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. What does this mean and how do i fix it.

Wile E · Jan 15, 2008, 09:15 PM

Is this a new build? Have you changed anything recently, whether software or hardware? Sorry, but we need more info.

trog100 · Jan 15, 2008, 09:22 PM

its either memory or hardrive or both.. i think its a data error message.. something is wrong.. i last got it when i was getting data coruption..

Wile E · Jan 15, 2008, 09:26 PM

It's usually ram, but bad drivers and the like can cause it as well.

trog100 · Jan 15, 2008, 09:38 PM

tell a lie i last got it when i had everything overcooked for a super pi run.. he he

trog

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 09:58 PM

So what should i do get new memory.

Cold Storm · Jan 15, 2008, 10:01 PM

Get a copy of Memtest86 on to a live cd and test it... then go from there.. what type of vista are you even running???

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 10:07 PM

Vista ultimate, and i have already tested my memory.... no errors

ktr · Jan 15, 2008, 10:09 PM

It could be unstable OC or bad driver of some sort (possible video), try safe mode.

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 10:22 PM

Works 100% in safe mode. Also i have my cpu and my gpu overclocked. But even when i didnt have my gpu overclocked and just my cpu my cpu ran 100% stable.

Dia01 · Jan 15, 2008, 10:29 PM

I've recently had a shit load of problems while overclocking my BFG 680i with a new Q6600. Throughout the the process I have received the exact message about 10 times because of an unstable overclock. Does it come up regulary? Try lowering your FSB with small increments to see if it reduces the frequency of error. Might help.

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 10:31 PM

It comes up everytime i try to boot into windows, i guess i will clock my gpu back to normal.

ktr · Jan 15, 2008, 10:33 PM

What tool are you using to OC your gcard?

Cold Storm · Jan 15, 2008, 10:39 PM

its the oc... vista does take a lot of power to start up.. had issues when ocing my board... and I had a mad v-droop happen when I start ultimate.

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 10:48 PM

Ok well i clocked everything back to normal and i still get the error. I only get the error when i log into my account. When i am just doing nothing at the log in screen it is perfectly normal.

ktr · Jan 15, 2008, 10:49 PM

reinstall the video drivers (i recommend using a driver cleaner first), and if you have ntune...remove it.

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 10:52 PM

Where can i get a driver cleaner

trog100 · Jan 15, 2008, 10:59 PM

it can be your mobo going too fast.. the southbridge mostly i think or the pci bus..

it is some kind of hardware instability.. its also memory connected but can be the things that have to talk to the memory not just the memory itself.

have u googled it..??

trog

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 11:08 PM

I have and they said it is a video driver error or a ram problem, but i tested my ram so it has to be the video driver prob.

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 11:22 PM

Ok removing the drivers did not work....? Should i try and remove ntune. Could i disable drive signature enforcement.

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 11:53 PM

Ok i went on the microsoft website and they said that it is my Logitech mouse drivers.

Cold Storm · Jan 15, 2008, 11:56 PM

dang logitech! what do they say to do about it??? and what drivers??? I have a G5 and its runs great..

binsky3333 · Jan 15, 2008, 11:58 PM

Drivers 9.10 and 9.24 no good.

binsky3333 · Jan 16, 2008, 12:02 AM

Actually nvm the mouse drivers are not the problem. WHAT COULD IT BE!!!!!!! I AM GETTING VERY MAD.
