    Windows 7 crashes on welcome screen


    hey guys. i need some help with my PC.
    When I start up my PC and it gets to the Welcome Screen, it crashes with the error code "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"

    This used to happen before (along with other error codes) but only randomly. Now it only happens when I boot to the Welcome Screen.

    If I need to show you the dump file, please let me know where I can find it
    THANKS!

    Check bios for correct RAM settings for your particular memory modules. Use CPU-Z SPD tab to determine which they are, then visit RAM maker's site to get correct values. Adjust bios accordingly. If you still have problems, attach a .rar of the dump files to a post. C:\Windows\Minidump
