    Bsod (irql_not_less_or_equal)


    I have not resolved my BSOD's since my last thread and appear to have lost contact with my support over there.. therefore starting a new thread here, hopefully I can get the help I need!

    V2 log file containing the troubleshooting of the error (UPDATED 2023-07-27)

    This time with the following error message:

    Stop code: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

    Failure: ntoskrnl.exe

    What I have done so far to resolve the BSOD:

    Removed the SteelSeries software from my computer (which supposedly was the cause)

    MemTest86, ran a full 4 pass scan

    Windows memory diagnostic tool, full pass scan

    Reset BIOS-settings to system default

    Updated all my drivers to their newest version, respectively

    Current Windows version: Windows 11 Home

    This would appear to be a problem with the Avast security system. Both BSODs are caused by the aswVmm.sys driver - this is the Avast VM monitor driver.

    The version of this driver that you have installed looks fairly current (20th June 2023) but it's worth checking for an updated version of Avast. TBH though, third-party security products like Avast cause BSODs quite often, and you really don't need them. Windows Defender and Windows Firewall are plenty good enough, they are all I use. My best advice is that you uninstall Avast using their specialised removal tool and just use Windows Defender and Firewall.

    Thanks for the quick reply! All right, I will remove Avast then, no problems.
