Help! Dealing with Frequent BSOD Errors: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Asked By TechyNerd42 On

I upgraded my PC last month, but starting in June, I've been facing multiple random Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors with the code "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL". I've already tried a few things like updating drivers (even found one missing but it didn't help), running a RAM scan (which showed no issues), and tweaking some settings in the console. Just an hour ago, it crashed again while I was doing nothing intensive. I attempted to use Bluescreenview, but I'm not really sure what the information means. I read online that it might relate to unauthorized memory usage, but I'm at a loss for how to fix this without wiping my PC clean, which I'm really trying to avoid. I've also got some dump files if that helps: [DMP files link].

To tackle those BSODs effectively, getting the dump files would be really helpful. They give us insights into what went wrong. If you can boot into Windows or Safe Mode, check for any dump files in C:WindowsMinidump. If you find any, zip them up and upload to a site like catbox.moe or mediafire.com. Multiple dump files are better for analysis, so if you only have one, no worries. Also, consider changing your settings to ensure small memory dumps are saved going forward—this can help capture future errors better.

First off, if your motherboard settings seem stable (like no glitches when navigating the BIOS), go ahead and update your BIOS to the latest version available on the MSI website. After that, make sure to install the latest AMD Chipset Drivers from AMD's official site; they can sometimes fix compatibility issues that lead to crashes. Once you've done that, keep an eye on whether the crashes persist or not.

How do I check my BIOS stability? My PC doesn’t lag or freeze, but it still crashes unexpectedly. Also, should I update to the very latest BIOS version or is it safer to use an older, proven one? I'm really nervous about messing up my system since I can't afford to replace it.
