D1 errors are usually driver related and it seems that Nvidia has more than iots fair share of them. Are you running a Nvidia chipset of video card? I would look for updated drivers if you do.

Aumha says,

0x000000D1: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

The system attempted to access pageable memory using a kernel process IRQL that was too high. The most typical cause is a bad device driver (one that uses improper addresses). It can also be caused by caused by faulty or mismatched RAM, or a damaged pagefile.
