    BSOD after clean install of OS - IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL


    Hello,
    I have been experiencing an issue with BSOD occurring every time I try to boot my computer normally. I had to clean install my OS after file corruption caused a previous BSOD error (PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA). That error has not occurred since, but I am still not able to run my computer normally. I have run multiple hard drive and memory tests, and everything has passed. I am able to boot into safe mode, and with WhoCrashed, I was able to (hopefully) isolate the problem to one of two applications: ntoskrnl.exe and ntkrnlmp.exe. From what I could find online, the recommended fix for this would involve purchasing a repair disk from the manufacturer. I would rather not spend the money unless it is absolutely necessary. I have attached the dump file, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Code:
    • MSC "c:\program files\microsoft security client\msseces.exe" -hide -runkey Public HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    • Start Menu\Programs\Norton Internet Security Public:Start Menu\Programs\Norton Internet Security Public
    Q: Is it bad to run multiple antivirus programs? Running multiple Antivirus software is never a good idea. Besides, Norton is a frequent cause of BSOD's, please remove it to test.

    Security App
    Uninstallers (removal tools) for common antivirus software. Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes are recommended from a strict BSOD perspective. They do not cause blue screens on the system as other AV products do.

    Microsoft Security Essentials, Free antivirus for windows and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free

       Information
    • Do not start the free trial of MalwareBytes, unselect that option when prompted.


    • Update and make full scans with both separately.
    Heat:
    -Only use the laptop on a hard surface with nothing blocking any of the vents.
    -Use a laptop cooling pad if possible
    -Blow out all vents with canned air (DO NOT use a vacuum cleaner or an air compressor, they can damage the components).
    -Ensure that the fan comes on and is blowing air out of the vent (may not happen at startup, but should happen after using it for a while).

    System Temperature

    Ensure that there are no heat issues, For monitoring heat of the system use Speccy or HWMonitor

    @koolkat77-
    Thank you for your insight. I have removed the Norton software completely; it was actually an un-activated free trial that was put on the system with the clean install, so I don't think that had much if anything to do with the problem. So far, I have only been able to complete the disk check, as all of the other processes led to the system crashing. The check returned the message "This disk contains file system errors" regarding the C drive. I am yet to attempt the Memtest, as I was unable to get a flash drive to run it from until today. I am going to run that once I finish this post and will get back to you with the results from it. Thank you again.

    Alright, I ran the memtestx86 overnight last night, and made it through 14 passes with no errors. Also, here is what I was able to get with CrystalDisk:
