Windows 7 crashing
Hi
My HTPC has crashed about 4 times in the last month with a green screen. The last time I managed to take a snap of the screen with my mobile but quality is poor, I can decipher the following but can't read the rest
'A problem has been detected and Windows has been shutdown to prevent damage to your computer.
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (Not sure if the IRQL is correct)
If this is the first time you have seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed, if this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you may need.
If problem continues disable or remove any recently removed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory'
I have attached the photo as well as other reports as requested.
The PC is a home build with Windows 7 Processional 32 bit. Previously had XP on the machine and made the mistake when installing where you have to choose between the two OS when booting each time.
Hardware is approx 2 years old and OS is 9 months old
Any help would be appreciated and will supply more info if required.
Thanks
