BSOD irql_not_less_or_equal only at first cold boot of the day
I have been having the strangest behavior from my EVGA SR-2 dual Xeon system for the past week or so. The only new software that has been added is the beta nVidia driver 358.59. Now, I could just uninstall it and revert back to the WHQL driver (355.98) that I had installed, but the BSOD is so odd, that I thought someone might be interested in it.
It is the "irql" BSOD and it occurs only after the first cold boot of the day. Turning the computer off and then cold booting it again never throws the BSOD. The system runs flawlessly otherwise. Here's how I solved it temporarily. I turned on the "Fast Start" option in Win 10. Why I hadn't done this before anyway, I don't know. Now, the system boots up like lightning and never throws the BSOD.
My zip file is attached for the curious, helpful and otherwise.
