    Brand new machine, frequent BSODs (IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL)


    I think IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL was the most common, but also PFN_LIST_CORRUPT and others.

    I got this machine yesterday.
    Installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (Full Retail), and it crashes every 3-4 hours.
    It crashes when I'm browsing or opening windows, but also when I am _not_ at the machine (and screen saver is running).

    I got the latest mother board drivers from ASRock's website.
    Also, Windows updates... although I couldn't get SP1 because of an error (800b0100) -- for which I installed Fix It 50123 and 50202, but they didn't help. This didn't affect the BSODs in any way -- it was the same before and after the Windows updates.

    Thanks guys!
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Machine specs:
    AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2.8GHz (Six Core)
    ASRock M3A770DE, AMD 770
    8GB (2x4GB) PC10600 DDR3 1333
    AMD Radeon HD 6750
    1000.0 GB Western Digital Black 7200RPM
    Wireless 802.11 N 150MBs Network Card PCI
    Thermaltake TR2 650W ultra quiet ATX Power Supply

    Two of these were Related to rtl8192ce.sys NDIS Driverr from Realtek Semiconductor Corporation.

    I would re-install the newest available driver.


    I would also run a system file check to verify and repair the OS files


    To do this type cmd in search, then right click to run as administrator, then
    SFC /SCANNOW

    It may need to be run up to three times before successful
    Let us know the results from the report at the end

    Sorry for the late reply.
    SFC /SCANNOW was successful the first time.

    I updated the rtl8192 drivers (that's my wifi adapter)... and did some more testing:
    - If I remove the wifi adapter completely, the problems still continue.
    - with removed wifi adapter and LAN adapter disabled from BIOS, the system ran fine for 24 hours (although I haven't been using it much in this conection-less state).

    So, most likely, those two are problematic, each by itself.
    Currently, I am have disabled the LAN adapter and use the wifi, it's a tiny bit better maybe, but still it crashes a lot.

    Attached are new dumps.

    Thanks again!
