Hi.
I keep getting IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL crashes about 1-3 times a day after upgrading to 10, I've tried a clean install of OS, resetting BIOS settings and driver updates, so I'll just ask here.
I'll just copy paste some info and hopefully it makes more sense to you than me, if you need more please tell me.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (a)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high. This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If a kernel debugger is available get the stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000003994482379, memory referenced
Arg2: 00000000000000ff, IRQL
Arg3: 0000000000000070, bitfield :
bit 0 : value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
bit 3 : value 0 = not an execute operation, 1 = execute operation (only on chips which support this level of status)
Arg4: fffff8034c902239, address which referenced memory

Debugging Details:

Solution
That critical event in event viewer was generated because your system did not shut down correctly. So no help there.
It is best now to have your complete BSOD dump file analyzed.

The guys at Windows 10 Forum: http://www.tenforums.com/ will do this for you and are experts at it. There is a product called Bluescreenview by Nirsoft if you want to try Analyze yourself.

I just did a check and there's no yellow triangles.


I did a test using Memtest86+ a couple of days ago and got 7 passes and no errors.

Did SFC /SCANNOW and it detected nothing. I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to be looking for with Event Viewer.

I've done a Intel CPU test earlier and it passed. Tried hwinfo64 and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the power supply rails. I'm not really sure how to update BIOS, but I guess I can try. BIOS Version says American Megatrends Inc. P11-A2, 02.07.2013, how can I update it?
