Bsod, irql_less_or_equal

[joeyshoes]

Hi All. I'm getting that nasty IRQL_LESS_OR_EQUAL message randomly while playing games. I have run memtest, it says all is ok. I have attached the dumps, any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Edit: Thanks Ken, the attachment wasn't zipped, so it kept failing.

As usual we need the actual DMP files created when your computer crashed. Use these to find and upload them to us. http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lockup-debug-how/34900-1-novice-how-ask-help-bsod-problem.html

I tried to un-install the ATI drivers completely and re-install them clean, hoping this would fix the issue, but after about 2.5 hours of my son playing World of Warcraft, it crashed again during the game. I really don't think it's the video drivers.

I ran memtest 6 passes, came back with no errors. I'll try it again. I did have 4 sticks of the dominiator memory, one did go bad around 4 months ago. Maybe 1 (or more) of the others are acting up.

Thanks for the reply ttran, appreciate it very much.

Hi,

I notice that you have McAfee installed, and one of the drivers (mfehidk.sys) was mentioned in one of the minidumps.

If you are still getting BSODs I recommend that you uninstall it temporarily, just to check that it is not the issue.

McAfee uninstalltion instructions:

Download the McAfee Removal Tool (MRT); save to desktop. Boot into SAFEMODE - NO Networking. Tap F8 key during boot-up. Then go to desktop, RIGHT-click on the MRT icon and select Run as Administrator.

When complete - re-boot.

MRT - http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

Install MS Security Essentials --> http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

Then reset the Windows Firewall to its default settings -
START -> type cmd.exe -> right-click -> run as administrator -> type netsh advfirewall reset press enter

Regards,
Reventon

I had gone 4 days without it, but my son reported that he got one today. He actually said the screen flashed a message about "a hidek" error. That's pretty close to what you mention reventon. I will look into this tonight.

Thanks a ton!
