driver_irql_not_less_or_equal plz help

well you could try the microsoft updates, u could do a search for it, go onto the company's site and try to find an update for ur driver, or you could go into device manager and rollback or uninstall the driver.

what does ur problem say? mine was a
0x000000D1
(0x00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

and if urs is different it could be your hardware :S
also sometimes u can turn cachéing off of your motherboard, I've heard it helps for people sometimes, but I reall ydon't recommend it lol, everything runs REALLY slow :giddy:

kamiryu - close started with 0x000000D1, but the rest was:
(0x00000008, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0xF7593848)

I have all the latest windows updates and there is no driver update for my USB wi-fi adapter.

Also got the driver_irql_not_less_or_equal.

Should be really happy if someone could take a look at my minidump as I attached.

Thanks!!!

I did install the latest nForce4 AMD driver...after installing all parts it was about to finish the installation...but it gave this strange error:


3 of my last minidumps are here:
http://www.m2h.nl/minidump

The most common time it occurs:
When i bootup and when msn is auto-logging in.
When i close msn quickly at startup and later start msn i do not get any problem..but the problem then occurs after a while...a little later..

I understand people on here got alot work to do with checking these minidumps, but you do help people like me out very much.
I hope there is someone who can help me fix the problem.

You can contact me at:

Thanks alot for your time.

Hi Mike2H,

The culprit is nVidia FireWall. Upgrade or de-install nVidia Firewall.

Hi ELmacovich,

I've studied your minidumps and it is hardware problem. It maybe faulty CPU or RAM.

I have read thru this forum and am also having the IRQL_not_less_or_equal BSOD. Prior I was receiving the worker_thread_returned_at_bad_IRQL error. I reinstalled the OS and was good for a few days, but the error is back. I also updated by BIOS version.
Could someone please read through my minidumps? I'm also attaching my pstat. Thanks so much!

Also, here's my bugcheck codes:The bugcheck was: 0x000000d1 (0xbfdb3b90, 0x00000002, 0xbfdb3b90, 0x82004bd8).
and 0x000000d1 (0xbfdb3b90, 0x00000002, 0xbfdb3b90, 0x820076b8).

Thanks a lot for that quick answer! Now I'm gonna take a look at the hardware...

Respect to you for helping me and all of us!!!

One more question...

Why is this driver_irql_not_less_or_equal happen for so many people now? My friend and I got this for the first time almost at the same day. That's weird I think... What do you think?

Hi,

I know you're getting a lot of requests but would you be able to help me out?

I'm getting the same error when I'm patching one of my games:

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

So I went into the minidump folder and found the most recent dump.

Here it is, thanks in advance.

I would start first with getting rid of the Mcafee crap and the free anti stuff and invest in something that has it all for 50 bucks. PC Chillin Rated highest in PC magazine for virus protection and spyware removal. i have it on my network and home PC and it is better than anything i have delt with. Plus it will be less space on your harddrive since its all in one. Just a suggestion.

Go to www.trendmicro.com and do their free online scan. that is the best way to tell your antivirus isn't working like it should.

I always believe if its free there's got to be something wrong with it or its a virus its self.

We need to see some more minidumps, as it`s very difficult to give you advice from just one minidump.

your minidump crashes at tcpip.sys.

This may, or may not have something to do with your internet connection.

Take a look HERE for a possible solution.

Regards Howard :grinthumb

I followed the steps stated there, unfortunetly it didn't solve the problem.

I've grabbed all the minidumps of today this time, I hope it helps make this problem that much more clearer.

Thanks for your help so far!

Two possible causes spring to mind.

Either your nic(network interface card) has bad drivers, in which case try updating the drivers, or try another nic.

Or, you have a ram problem.

Remove your ram stick/s and clean the contacts with an eraser. Blow away the remnants and replace, one stick at a time, and test your system.

You can also download the Memtest86+ from www.memtest.org.

Test each stick of ram individually, and let the programme run for at least seven passes. If you don`t have a floppy drive, there is a pre-built iso version available, that you can burn to cd, and then boot from that.

Note. Some faulty ram can pass Memtest. If Memtest shows errors with your ram, then your ram is bad.

Also please be aware, that I`m only learning to analyze minidumps, and it is possible that the info I have given you maybe wrong.

If you want to wait for cpc2004 to confirm, or otherwise what I`ve said, then that is a sensible way to proceed.

I have been informed that faulty ram is the more likely culprit.

It could also be an overheating problem. Check you system temperatures.

Driver_irql_not_less_or_equal

I have the same problem pointing to blackdrv.sys. Where should I start?

Hi
I'm having a problem with my computer.
DRIVER_IRDL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
0x100000d1 (0x719fdf52, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x719fdf52


Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome to Techspot.

From just one minidump it`s difficult to be 100% sure. Can you supply us with 5 or six minidumps, so the we can confirm the culprit?

BlackDrv.sys is a driver for your Blackice security software.

Try uninstalling, and reinstalling the software. Check for any updates, or patches.

If that doesn`t help, try using a different product, such as AVG free, and the Sygate free firewall.
