Hi all,

A few weeks ago I started having blue screen problems, freezing mostly when I play computer games, sometimes when the computer is idle. I have had a number of different error messages, the most common being IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, I have also had SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION, PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA and DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. Sometimes after these crashes the computer does not start up and needs to be restarted at least once for it to boot up.


Basic System Info: Windows 7 Pro x64 OEM
Whole base unit is just over a year old, and I tried reinstalling Windows a week or so ago but it did not fix the problem.

Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated!

ok after removing the suspect RAM chip, disabling overclocking and enabling CnQ, I am still getting crashes here are all the up to date files.

Would it do any good to format the hard drive and do a complete Windows reinstall?

4e --> memory_corruption.

Now your CPU is back to 3,4Ghz, an old screenshot?

Reinstall the system? Give it a go, 99,9999% it won't help.


1. Load bios setup defaults.

2. Make sure AMD C&Q is on.

3. No overclocking at all.

4. It could help if you place the stick into another slot.

5. Test the hard drive just in case.


Again, make sure the hardware is at its stock recommended settings.

nope a current screenshot, I have overclocking off, CnQ on and balanced power plan but it keeps jumping to 2210 and 3400, must have taken the screeny duting a jump. Would limiting the processor speed help perhaps?

Will run the RAM tests in different slots and get a hard drive test done overnight and get back with the results tomorrow.

Thanks for your patience and help

Look, I have said it three times already >> load bios defaults so to set your hardware right.

>> Then, if crashes pesist, try another memory slot.

>> Test the hard drive too.

>> Finally if nothing works out, replace the hardware.

Again, very important to run at stock.
