General bad performance and IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Since doing a clean install with 10 I have had many performance issues from explorer being slow, context menus slow, start menu not working, and so forth. CHKDSK and SFC /SCANNOW return normal results.

I also have a lot of issues with my video driver kernel crashing abd being recoverd. This mainly happens on wake. (GTX 970). I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled as a first attempt, used DisplayDriverUninstaller on the second attempt, and on the third used Revo, DDU, CCleaner, and windows to remove it and I still get crashes.

Finally I came to using the driver verifer tool to try and force a BSOD. After two days of use this is what I get, "IQRL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL".

Hi zenixnet,

Welcome to the 10forums.

A quick tip

Partition Y doesn't have enough free space.
Every partition needs at least 10-15% free space.
Please move some files from partition Y.

   Warning

Less free space could cause BSOD's

It seems that a VMware driver caused the problem.
Please update VMware or remove it.

Code:

3: kd> lmvm hcmonstart             end                 module name
fffff801`58720000 fffff801`58731000   hcmon    T (no symbols)

Thank you for the reply. I think I uninstalled the VM software that used that driver, I didn't need it anyway.

On a related note I saved the event logs for the video driver crash and the logs that happen around the same time. Are they something you could take a look at and possibly see what is wrong?
