    BSOD crash after installing updates to Vista to Windows 7 uprade


    I used the Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade CD to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 (32 bit). The installation was successful through the .NET upgrade, but I had problems once I installed the (57) updates. The first time I went through the process, the system froze, I had to restart in safe mode a couple of times, etc.

    I finally restored the system to the state it was in before the .NET upgrade (the first restore point available - the restore to the second restore point failed). I then let the system do the .NET upgrade and tried to install the (57) updates again. The system again crashed with the dump that I am attaching. The update information shows that the updates failed and they are now queued to be installed again.

    The laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad T60 - just under 4 years old
    Vista came with the system and was at the Syspack 2 level
    Windows 7 upgrade was the retail version (3x version). I was able to install it without problems on my husband's Thinkpad T61

    BSOD's still happening


    I am still getting the BSOD. I restored back to a state without the Windows updates. I updated the Wireless Network driver. Then I shut down the system and all the Windows updates were applied. I brought the system back up and applied the latest Soundmax driver. I shut down the system after applying the Soundmax driver and then I got the BSOD. The network driver info says it is current and I cannot find the video card or driver under system hardware. I updated the Intel wireless driver from the Intel site.

    I am attaching the latest dumps and perfmon files. Following are the details provided when I brought the system up in safe mode

    Blue screen message - IRQL_not_less_or_equal


    I finally looked at the blue screen message which is IRQL_not_less_or_equal. The web says this could be a registry problem. I would need to know how to fix this

    Disabled gigabit network driver


    I could not update the driver for the gigabit network card - I downloaded the driver, but the system would not install it. I kept getting the message that the driver installed was the correct one and the latest one. I disabled the ethernet card since I usually work with wireless and that allowed me to shutdown cleanly. At some point, I will have to figure out how to update the driver.

    Thanks for the help

    I spoke too soon


    My system seemed to be ok and I was able to shutdown cleanly a couple of times. Then I allowed Microsoft to update my software again and then it started crashing again. I have now backed out to a clean restore (although I think it still crashes, but at least I can bring up windows). I also had used the control panel to update all the drivers from the internet - I let the tool find and update drivers. When I shutdown to activate, I got another dump which I am attaching along with the perfmon report.

    Are there any other suggestions? Where can I find instructions on how to read the dumps? Thanks

    Dont install all the Windows up dates at one time.

    Picture on left below open Windows update. Click yellow circled Change Settings.

    Right picture- Change the drop curtain as mine is. Click OK.

    When updates download then you will be able to pick to install 1-3 at a time instead of 57 at once.
