Every time i use my desktop, around 2 or 3 minutes after windows has booted up, a blue screen appears and reads

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Then a load of stuff about windows recovery and things

The Technical info bit reads

*** STOP: 0x0000000A (0x000008, 0x00000002, 0x00000001, 0x806D35BB)

Any ideas what is causing this and what i can do about it?

Thanks in Advance guys.

If you have recently updated device drivers I would roll them back, if you have installed new hardware I would remove that. If thats not it, I would run Memtest

Hello Craggy_t,

You still having this issue? If you are we can take a deep look at your system as to why this blue screen is happening.

Hi,
Yeah but getting different codes every time it happens in the technical info.

Also, had DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.

Phoned PC World and they sent me out some new RAM to fit so i'll do this and see how that gets on.
