This happens to games I play, most recently Blacklight Retribution.

I have ran memtest86+ (said it passed), chkdsk (no errors), uninstalled nvidia drivers using DDU and reinstalling the stable driver, made sure my RAM was securely locked in, and can't figure it out.

I ran FurMark to see if my graphics card was overheating and it stayed at 74C (my cards max temp is 98C).

Alot of the games I play will crash to desktop or BSOD with IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.

When I download Guild Wars 2, it will BSOD (Thats what happened last night but I was sleeping so I couldn't see the error code)

My Steam folder is installed on my other internal hard drive (not the one with the Windows 7 install).

I thought it could've been my PSU so I went out and bought a 850W one.

Im beginning to become really frustrated as I just built this computer, primarily for gaming.

I did a fresh Windows install earlier today hoping it would help but I'm still getting this same problem.

I wonder if its a program I installed but have no idea.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm tearing my hair out at this point.

I have uploaded the minidump and more info at Mediafire (its in a zip): Mediafire

EDIT: Crashed while playing Blacklight Retribution again and got MEMORY MANAGEMENT BSOD, also crashed while playing Guild Wars 2 and got BSOD SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION. Please help me
 
I just looked at your crash dump. The problem looked like a programming mistake in your game, but it can also be caused by anti virus program that are trying to "help" you. That being said you have a lot of drivers you just should not be running.

anti spyware program for 2011 is just not a good idea.

a 2008 security driver ??? from Atheros Security NDIS 6.0 Filter Driver.
not the best idea to be running that.

You might want to consider uninstalling these programs and getting your system stable and if you want you can add them back one at a time.






 
Hello johnbl, thank you for taking the time to respond. I have recently reinstalled Windows again, this time without installing any other drivers (except for my Wireless Adapter's drivers and Graphics Card's drivers) and so far it is good, I will do further testing with the games and see if it will crash, and then I will install each driver and program one by one and see which one is causing the problem. Thanks again for the response!
 
I think I figured it out, I changed the Voltage to the RAM to the manufacturers specified Volts and now its working fine. My motherboard had a power saving option and I guess it defaulted to that.
