BSOD Crashes, 'IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL' & 'KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED'

[calvinwakefield1]

I'm getting some BSOD showing me 'IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL' and 'KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED'.
This has been going on none-stop for the past 3 days, I've tried fixing it myself by updating my drivers and even performing a clean install of Windows 10 but the problem still persists.
I believe it's a corrupt or faulty driver but am unsure as the problem stuck around even after performing the Windows 10 Clean Install...

I opened up the Minidumps with BlueScreenView and the problem seems to be with something called 'ntoskrnl.exe'.
Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated.

One crash was Nvidia, very next one is Malwarebytes, Your PC is crashing really fast, every time.

is the ram running at right speed? Was it same type as before? Might need to reset bios settings.

Only 3 drivers loaded, I assume you didn't fresh install so something isn't quite right here. I will ask for someone who knows hardware better than I do to look.

Try this, this will take a while but tell us potential cause

DIMM 1 in 1st slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD,
DIMM 1 in 2nd slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD,
DIMM 1 in 3rd slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD,
DIMM 1 in 4th slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD,
if the new RAM came as a set of 2 then:
DIMM 2 in 1st slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD,
DIMM 2 in 2nd slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD,
DIMM 2 in 3rd slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD,
DIMM 2 in 4th slot - tests - yes/no for BSoD

try making a ubuntu live usb and boot off it, and see if it crashes as fast.

I can no clue what the DIMM test thing is.

 

[calvinwakefield1]

I've installed Ubuntu and it is working perfectly fine. No issues so far.

Does this just mean that Windows is screwed?

 

[calvinwakefield1]

Nevermind my computer freezes every now and again, no errors or common reason. I could be browsing my files or searching online and it just randomly freezes.

Sorry, DIMM = Ram sticks, we were asking you to check each slot 1 by one and see if its the motherboard

 

[calvinwakefield1]

I removed my RAM sticks and tested them in all of the slots, my computer still crashes...
So it still crashes even with Ubuntu.

I don't know if resetting bios to defaults would help or not, it might be ram timings for instance.

Have to try to figure out which hardware it is causing the crashes. Assuming its not the brand new ram sticks, and we have tested the HDD in windows using hdtune, its getting to stage there isn't much left it can be. Normally you test everything until its just CPU/motherboard left untested.

simple way to test GPU is remove it and see if PC still crashes.

Download this and test the CPU - http://www.tcsscreening.com/files/users/IPDT_LiveUSB/index.html - its not Ubuntu so might need to run off the USB. I honestly don't know linux, never used it, so I might get assistance here and see if any others can help, might be better tests.

Only real way to know if its the motherboard is swap in another one. As I suspect you don't have a spare, you might think about getting a store to repair it, as they should have working spares for all your parts and should be able to identify the problem much faster than I can

 

[calvinwakefield1]

I reset my BIOS, removed my GPU and uninstalled Ubuntu and went back to Windows 10.

 

[calvinwakefield1]

I ran the Intel Processor diagnostic tool and it failed the Platform Controller Hub test.
Does this help in anyway?
I reinstalled my chipset drivers as it could be a potential cause and now my computer is more stable.
Not crashing as much but still crashing.

seems that is one of the fixes for the PCH thing

This is not a very common issue but please try these steps:

1. Reinstall the motherboard Chipset Driver.
2. Reinstall Intel® Management Driver.
3, Update motherboard BIOS.

After these steps, run the Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool again and if issue persists contact our support Center.

Here is our contact information: http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/contactsupport

https://communities.intel.com/thread/60375

did you retest after the update?

if you did and found nothing wrong, I would suggest you also post about your problems on https://www.tenforums.com/bsod-crashes-debugging/ and follow the instructions at top for posting, they may fix this for you far faster than I obviously can. You could link to this thread to avoid repetition.

I retested after updating of course, and it still failed on PCH.
I also already tried and read that page.

You might be best contacting Intel then, given you followed the steps suggested by them. It could be the CPU itself

Given memory controller is on the CPU it might explain the random errors you are getting and the fast restart times.
