Hi All,

 

I'm running windows 7 64 bit on and I7 920 processor which has been overclocked the 3.8ghz. So far my FSX experience has been really good as has all the other things I use the PC for (photo editing mainly). Suddenly I have started having blue screen crashes regardless of whether I'm using FSX or another programme or just surfing the internet. The message on the blue screen is: driver_irql_not_less_or_equal. Before anyone asks to my knowledge the drivers haven't changed recently. Can anyone help

 

 

 

All the best

Download Slimdrivers - it's free, let it update your drivers, and then take it from there. This is an area of the pc that needs to be monitored once a week, or so. It may or may not cure your problem..

Cause of the problem and some possible solutions here - http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001143.htm.

I've had this same annoying issue until I found somewhere on sevenforums.com a hint to use Blue Screen View. It's a free tool from http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

and it will tell you the most likely drivers or win modules that may be crashing your system. For me it was the bluetooth driver and all was solved with an up to date driver.

Hope it helps.

Cheers!
