Experiencing Frequent BSODs on Windows 11: Need Help

Asked By TechGuru92 On

I've been having problems with my Windows 11 PC crashing to a blue screen of death (BSOD) roughly every 30 minutes. This started happening after I installed a game from a website that has had some issues related to malware. I've done a few things already, like reinstalling the operating system, reseating the RAM, and resetting the CMOS, but nothing seems to work. The specific BSOD error I keep getting is 'irql_not_less_or_equal' and it references 'ntoskrnl.exe'. I've attached the latest dump file for analysis, but I don't quite understand the details myself. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated!

I noticed you have Vanguard Anti-cheat enabled. Sometimes, that can interfere with system stability. Try uninstalling it temporarily to see if that stops the crashes. If not, we might need to explore other avenues.

Try running MemTest86 to check if there's a problem with your RAM. You can create a bootable USB with the software on another computer and then run the test. Remove all RAM sticks except the first one while you do this, and run the test. It may take a few hours but it'll tell you if your RAM is faulty. I was in the same boat, and it turned out one of my RAM sticks was defective.

If you've already done a full OS reinstall and the BSODs keep happening, it’s likely a hardware issue. Most BSODs stem from hardware problems, so you might want to look into your components. Have you recently checked everything like your power supply and motherboard?

Dump files are really helpful for diagnosing BSOD issues. If you can, boot into Windows normally or through Safe Mode and check the C:WindowsMinidump directory for any files. If you find some, zip them up and upload them to a file sharing site like MediaFire. It's better to have multiple dump files for a thorough analysis. Also, if you only have one file, make sure to follow the instructions on configuring your system to create small memory dumps for future BSODs. This will help in understanding the root cause better.
