Over the past few days, I've gotten the same DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL bsod twice.

I've tried to solve the problem myself, but to no end, and was wondering if you guys could help out.

Relevant files attached, thanks! :)

BugCheck D1, {[COLOR="red"]3[/COLOR], [COLOR="Blue"]2[/COLOR], 8, [COLOR="red"]3[/COLOR]}

This bugcheck indicates a driver attempted to access pageable memory at an IRQL too high.
The address being referenced (The first parameter) is invalid because the first usable address is in user mode (0x010000 I believe), it's also a null pointer as it's referencing the same address that the instruction is being sent from.

Right, there's not much in the callstack that identifies the exact cause.
Lets dump the raw stack.

Your Intel USB 3.0 Extensible driver is causing issues, as you can see it's out of date.
Update it via this link.

It's the most up to date version, the most stable version is 314.22 which you should install.

Daemon Tools/Alcohol is known cause of BSODs, you will have to find an alternative as there is no way around this.

If the button it is grayed out, as shown in the image, there is no more SPTD installation on your system, and you can just close the window.

I did what you suggested, but a couple hours later, I got a different, IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL problem.

I attached a new .zip file, and if you could take a look at that, I'd be very grateful, thanks!

Intel Rapid Storage is unnecessary and problematic, I suggest you uninstall it.

Uninstall it from Control Panel > Programs and Features. Then Uninstall the driver from device manager.

  1. Right click on "my computer" icon and click "manage" on the context menu.
  2. It will open the "computer management" window.
  3. Select "Device Manager" in the left pane, It will list all the existing devices up.
  4. Expand "Disc Drives" by clicking on the triangle in front of it.
  5. Select one item under it, right click, uninstall.
  6. Continue the process for all items under "Disc Drives"
  7. Now restart the computer. At restart, windows will auto configure the appropriate system driver, msahci.sys.

This is the C-Media USB Audio Class Driver.

Update it either from their website or via device manager.

What devices have you got plugged in?

I ask because your USB 3.0 driver from Intel is being flagged again.

It's a recent version, are there no later versions?

It might be getting flagged by C media but I'm unsure at this point.

The C-Media device is a blue snowball, a USB mic, and the driver should be recent, seeing as I installed the one off of Intel's website.

Edit: Plugged into the USB ports are a 32GB kingston datatraveller ultimate G3, a steelseries sensei mouse, a seagate expansion 3tb drive, the blue snowball that I had mentioned, an HP E709n printer, and a das keyboard along with its USB hub.
