Windows 7 [BSOD] Driver_IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal Ntkrnlmp.exe

Troubleshooting Steps:​

1. Check Drivers:
   • Ensure all your drivers, especially for your network card and other essential components, are up to date. Outdated or incompatible drivers can lead to such errors.
   []Memory Issues:
   • Even though MemTest 86 did not show any errors, try reseating your RAM modules or testing them one at a time to identify any potential issues.
   []Ntkrnlmp.exe Analysis:
   • Ntkrnlmp.exe is indeed a core part of Windows related to the kernel. However, pinpointing the cause to this file in WinDbg could be a bit tricky. It is often seen in BSOD dumps but may not directly be the cause of the issue.
   []System File Check (SFC) and Disk Check:
   • Run a System File Check to scan and restore corrupted system files. Also, perform a disk check using the CHKDSK command to ensure there are no disk errors.
   []Hardware Check:
   • Consider checking other hardware components like the hard drive, motherboard, and CPU for any potential issues.
   []Check for Overclocking:
   • If your system is overclocked, revert to default settings as unstable overclocks can cause system instability.

   • It would be beneficial to repost this in the BSOD subsection for more specialized assistance if needed.

     • The fact that the issue persisted even after reinstalling Windows indicates the problem might be related to hardware.
