I'm not sure what is causing this so any help would be appreciated

Hi Stuart and Welcome to Seven Forums.
To help us help you would you please add your systems specs? Here's how: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/180324-system-info-see-your-system-specs.html#post1530002
Under System Manufacturer/Model Number add whether it is a desktop or laptop and whether self built.

Log in to Seven Forums and you will be able to transfer the info directly to the specs page in your profile from within the System Info app.
After doing this your specs will be available in each of your posts. Click on My system Specs in the lower left of this post to see how it should look.
Full instructions are in the tutorial.

I've done that ^_^ after rolling back my graphics drivers to a previous version I havent had a problem with it but i will let you know if it happens again

 

[Britton30]

thanks for letting us know. Sometime the newest GPU driver isn't the best.

Quick update, just got the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD .. what could have caused this?

I hope Gary aka Britton30 does not mind me posting on this thread.

Can you upload the newer dumps please?

BTW, Norton contributes in BSODs. Suggest you to uninstall it with its removal tool and replace with MSE (at least to test). Use the norton removal tool to uninstall.

Recommended antivirus program for Windows 7 based on stability compared to others:-

• Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows
• Malwarebytes - The Free version
• http://www.sevenforums.com/system-security/206705-good-free-system-security-combination.html

Run a full scan with both (separately) once downloaded, installed and updated.
The usual causes on your bug checks:

STOP 0x0000000A: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Usual causes: Kernel mode driver, System Service, BIOS, Windows, Virus scanner, Backup tool, compatibility

STOP 0x0000001A: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
Usual causes: Device driver, memory, kernel

Norton wont uninstall and there isn't a Norton removal tool :S

Will post the new dumps soon

 

[koolkat77]

NRT
|MG| Norton Removal Tool 20.0.0.21 Download

Incase those do not work, try uninstalling with Revo Uninstaller - Free

 

[Stuart1132]

Norton is gone and I'm now installing MSE after its updated i will run a scan, restart my system and get the new dump file for you

 

[koolkat77]

Alright

Looks okay except, - reinstall the drivers for your graphics card.

Click on the Start rb: ► Control Panel ► Programs ► Uninstall a program ► Uninstall everything related to NVIDIA, then delete remnants of its drivers using Driver Sweeper.

:warn: Reboot the computer every time you are asked to.

Install the drivers afresh.

 

[Stuart1132]

Thanks .. seems to have sorted it now

 

[koolkat77]

[Britton30]

Aye Aye Cap'N!!

Take memtest. Run for 8 passes and test each stick in a know good slot for an additional 6 passes.

• Guide to using Memtest86+ - Geeks to Go Forums

The goal is to test all the RAM sticks and all the motherboard slots.

Check your motherboard manual to ensure the RAM sticks are in the recommended motherboard slots. Some motherboards have very specific slots required for the number of RAM sticks installed.

If you get errors, stop the test and continue with the next step.

1. Remove all but one stick of RAM from your computer (this will be RAM stick #1), and run Memtest86 again, for 7 passes.
Be sure to note the RAM stick, use a piece of tape with a number, and note the motherboard slot.
If this stick passes the test then go to step #3.

2. If RAM stick #1 has errors, repeat the test with RAM stick #2 in the same motherboard slot.
If RAM stick #2 passes, this indicates that RAM stick #1 may be bad. If you want to be absolutely sure, re-test RAM stick #1 in another known good slot.
If RAM stick #2 has errors, this indicates another possible bad RAM stick, a possible motherboard slot failure or inadequate settings.
3. Test the next stick of RAM (stick #2) in the next motherboard slot.
If this RAM stick has errors repeat step #2 using a known good stick if possible, or another stick.
If this RAM stick has no errors and both sticks failed in slot#1, test RAM stick #1 in this slot.
4. If you find a stick that passes the test, test it in all the other motherboard slots.

If Part 2 testing shows errors, and all tests in Part 3 show errors, you will need to test the RAM sticks in another computer and/or test other RAM in your computer to identify the problem.

In this way, you can identify whether it is a bad stick of RAM, a bad motherboard, or incompatibility between the sticks.

I only have to one RAM stick, should i test it in all four slots on my motherboard?

Yes, it wouldn't hurt.
