BSOD started happening
Hi all,
I own a Dell XPS M1330 laptop which I installed windows 7 on. Lately I seem to having a problem where my computer would crash (BSOD) either while I was using it or when I was away doing something else. For the times I have been here my crash has said IRQL_DRIVER_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
This happens probably 3-4 times a day and it's starting to get annoying. I increased my virtual memory size to the max it can go (3 times my memory was the suggested amount and i have 4GB of RAM running a 32 bit windows 7 so 3.5 usable) and updated my graphics card drivers as well.
I'm not sure what this problem is coming from. It could be that I had to have my laptop's motherboard replaced by dell a week after the windows 7 installation because of some hardware failure (or so they claim).
DO you think I would have to reinstall windows 7? Or is there some way I can make everything better without me having to go through all that trouble?
Thanks
