    Frustrated with BSOD IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL while online


    I've been battling this blue screen for a couple months now, and every time I think I have it solved, it rears its ugly head again. It seems to occur when there's heavy internet usage - basically every time when downloading games from steam/origin/battle.net, as well as more occasionally when streaming videos on youtube or rarely when playing online games. Most of the time the blue screen message is IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL, but not every time. Sometimes I'll see a KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED, other times a UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP message, still other times I won't get a blue screen at all and instead the system locks up completely forcing a manual restart.



    Running WhoCrashed shows this:

    I've done about everything I can think of as well as everything I've read in forums, but to no avail. I've done a reinstall of Windows, and I've run sfc /scannow, memtest, dskchk, as well as updating every driver I could find, including bios and chipset. Before trying some paid driver scanner or registry cleaner, or even new hardware, I figured I'd post here with my dump files since that's almost greek to me. Any help would be appreciated!

    I've attached the info from the DM Log Collector:
    Attachment 105864
    And both the minidump and full dump files can be found here:

    Check Gigabyte for BIOS updates and LAN driver updates.

    Please fill in your system specs
    Please follow this tutorial and download the tool. The tool will give you detailed information about your system specs, please fill in your system specs more completely including PSU, cooling and other used stuff like mouse, keyboard, monitor, case, etc.
    The PSU, cooling and other stuff are NOT mentioned in the tool.

    In the left corner below in your post you find 'My System Specs'. After clicking it you can find a link a little below that says 'Update your System Spec', click on this link to get to the page where you can fill in your system specs.

    Thanks for the response axe0! I updated my BIOS and did a clean install of LAN drivers, both from gigabyte's website, but am still having problems. I tried downloading a game from Origin and my computer locked up. I restarted and tried downloading a game from Steam, and got a BSOD. My computer actually froze up again while trying to post this reply the first time. I've attached the new zip.

    Please downgrade the BIOS to version F12, I forgot to mention to check for BIOS updates that are not beta versions

    Ok, I'm back to F12. It's what I was running on before though, so I don't think that on its own will change much. Any possible ideas so far?
