BSOD before and after OS reinstall, DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

You could cancel it

Alright, still alive. Sorry for radio silence.

Chkdsk was cancelled yesterday morning. I had a restore point set right after the installation of MSE that I went back to. For the drivers update, I remove EgisTech/myWinlocker because I couldn't update it without uninstalling first (?) and it came with the PC, and I never used it anyway. (I have to go clean the registry, right?) I tried finding out an updated driver for Ralink (Linksys, it's my wireless usb adapter) but there are no newer version unless I need to dig in deeper?

Now, trying to update anything related to AMD (ATI, Raid controller) got me a BSOD regarding this file: Atihdw76.sys. I got around updating ahcix64s.sys but when I tried going for the two ATI drivers, it just goes. The AMD site mostly gives something like an automatic detector to install anything, not a simple "here's the newest driver for this, download this exe". At least that's what I got. I used this install and it crashed: 14-4-win7-win8.1-64-dd-ccc-whql. Not sure if this helps.

Also, is there any other way to clean up leftover drivers? I don't think I used Driver Sweeper right because I had to go back again to a previous restore point as it completely removed AMD stuff and I was left with a generic driver for display. Sorry, I'm not too too savvy when it comes to this. I try but ultimately I don't know much. :'<

Ah, SFC scan came up clean too. And CrystalDiskInfo doesn't see my disk at all. Aaaaand I'm afraid to risk another chkdsk.

Computer is currently stable and hasn't blued out on me unless I'm mucking with AMD/ATI drivers. I cooouuuuld use it in the mean time (it's actually also my home workstation) but I know it's gonna crash again at some point. Anyway, let's see what you'll tell me. Do you need another DM log?

Yup :)

Here you go!

(Somehow the files didn't get compressed and saved as a zip. The temp folder on the desktop just disappears... Had to copy the files before I closed the prompt.)

The failing driver is a part of the CCC. But, something is wrong with your display driver itself.

Code:

Driver File Version:  ()
     Driver Version: 8.710.0.0
        DDI Version: 10.1
       Driver Model: WDDM 1.1
  Driver Attributes: Final Retail
   Driver Date/Size: , 0 bytes
        WHQL Logo'd: n/a
    WHQL Date Stamp: n/a

Please use the autodetect: AMD Driver Autodetect

Were you able to fix that driver?

Monostone · 15 Jul 2014

AtihdW76.sys? I don't know how... If it's by using the AMD Driver AutoDetect, it crashes on me.

Have you tried uninstalling from Control Panel?

Monostone · 15 Jul 2014

The only thing I see in the Add/Remove (related to that) are AMD Catalyst Install Manager and 4 different Microsoft C++ programs. Shall I uninstall and reinstall all of these again?
