Solved BSOD: IRQL Not Less or Equal

[essenbe]

If you didn't run that particular test for 8 full passes, you haven't really tested your ram. Did you set your BIOS to optimized defaults and have you checked and made sure your computer is set to create small memory dumps? http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/174459-dump-files-configure-windows-create-bsod.html . Those things will help and could solve your problems. Until we get new dump files, there is nothing we have to go on to check. We need the memory dump files to debug the system. The computer will not create a memory dump until you get a real BSOD.

No im running the test now. How can i set it to small mem dump if i cant get past bios?

 

[essenbe]

Try safe mode, if that does not work try last known good configuration, if that won't work, boot into the installation DVD and on about the 3rd screen, in the bottom left is an option to fix my computer. Try that to run start up repair.

On start up try tapping F8 as soon as you see the manufacturers logo and see if you can get the repair options/safe mode.

18 passes no errors and all that doesnt work and i dont have the dvd

 

[essenbe]

I'm not sure what you mean by all that doesn't work. you can't boot into café mode or recovery options, or you did those options and they didn't work.

 

[skrillek]

i get bsod if i try anything, safe mode, most recent good config etc..
And i dont have the dvd

 

[essenbe]

When you built this computer, it appears you transferred the OS to the new system, you did not do a clean install, is that correct?

 

[skrillek]

Yes i move it from hdd to a faster hdd months ago

 

[essenbe]

You apparently moved it from an AMD system to this Intel system, which may very well be much of the problem. Your files have AMD sata drivers in it, which do not get along well with Intel drivers.

 

[skrillek]

I got intel drivers when i switched, i dont think thats the problem because its been running fine for ages
​

 

[essenbe]

You have all the drivers for an AMD system and an Intel system in the os. When it goes to start loading drivers, do you suppose it knows which ones to load?

 

[skrillek]

Yes.

 

[skrillek]

But im going to assume im wrong

 

[essenbe]

skrillek, I am going to make an assumption here. You have an OEM system builders License. That license is only good for the system it was first installed on. To be legal you would have to buy a new Windows 7 OS. Were you trying to avoid that and that is why you just changed it over to the new system?

 

[skrillek]

I dont know, i had win 7 home premium on one hdd but it was slow and i wanted to record gameplay, but the write speed of my hdd wasnt good enough for the fps and hd rwcording. so i bought a new one from maplins that had a faster write speed. I heard moving your os will also speed up general performance and boot speed which it did.

 

[essenbe]

Moving the OS will not speed it up. A faster hard drive will. But, that does not cover the OEM Windows 7.

 

[skrillek]

So what about the bsod?

 

[essenbe]

You first need to do a clean install and get it activated by Microsoft and we will continue from there. A clean install is always necessary when changing Motherboards, and activation is a requirement here. I think you will find your operation much better afterwards.

 

[skrillek]

I think i did, i dont remember if it was b4 or after i switched but i remember doing it. And i dont have the dvd

 

[essenbe]

It was before you switched. Otherwise there would not be AMD drivers in your system.
