IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL BSOD when gaming

BFGuser · 17 Aug 2016

Hi,

Recently, I have been receiving a BSOD error when gaming (various different ones). It usually occurs 10 mins+ into the game and has been occurring randomly for about a month or so now but is now much more frequent (nearly every time I play a game). I have unplugged devices and tried to remove any drivers I believed was causing the issue but this does not seem to have resolved the issue.

I have also updated to the latest Nvidia drivers (uninstalled using DDU) & updated bios to latest. Windows 10 has also recently been updated to the Anniversary update. Graphics card is running at stock clock and I have monitored temperatures of cpu & gpu which appear to be within a normal range.

I have never received a BSOD unless I play a game.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Hello BFGuser and welcome to TenForums :)

It looks as if you have a counterfeit version of Windows 10 Pro. We therefore cannot help you as it is against the forum rules. Also, it is rare that anyone will analyse a counterfeit copy as the results are unpredictable.

If you install and activate a genuine version of W10 we will be able to help.

Thank you, will have a look into it.
