New install WIN7 error IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.
Aloha,
I'm trying to make a new install of WIN7 on a new Corsair SSD.
My prior OS on this machine was WINXP PRO. The Maxtor 80GB HDD that XP was loaded on died.
I used the opportunity to upgrade memory from 4GB to 8GB of Samsung DDR2 800Mhz. on my existing mobo Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-US2H, v1, upgrade the video card to Radeon HD 6750, and replaced the HDD that WINXP_PRO was loaded on with the SSD above. The CPU is AMD Phenom QuadCore 2.3GHz
On another machine I downloaded the WIN7 BIOS drivers from Gigabyte to a flash drive and performed a BIOS update per the GB user manual. The BIOS is v.f2 dtd 01/01/09
At this point the video card has been pulled and the BIOS changed to onboard video. All other peripherals and cables have been disconnected except the HDMI cable to the monitor.
The error msg also says "...Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software mfg.for any WINDOWS updates you might need..."
The only new hardware plugged in is the SSD currently operating as IDE not SATA. There was no installation information for it. Prior to buying, I asked GB tech support if the mobo would support it
The only new software are the GB driver updates for the BIOS.
Does anyone have any recommendations to fix this?
