Running a fresh copy of windows 8.1, updated from 8, on a hard drive fully wiped with cmd. PC runs fine for a random amount of time before a blue screen crash with a range of errors, most commonly "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL".
my pc has a ASRock z97 PRO4 motherboard with a 4.0 GHz i7 4790k quad core cpu, a Palit gtx 750ti gpu, 16 gb of ram (2 8gb sticks). All of it is compatible
I have:
1. updated windows. had to force the pc to search for updates and trouble shoot it since it didnt want to on its own.
2. updated all drivers to the most recent version.
3. attempted windows disk reset/refresh/repair, which gave "couldn't reset", "drive is locked" and "Operating system version is incompatible with startup repair". (only fix for this i'm not sure worked was to make sure my motherboard and components attached to it are connected properly)

Any help would be useful. Think I've tried other ideas but been working on this pc trying to get it to run for almost 24 hours now.

Kmode dump: https://www.dropbox.com/s/72rakqx8ptmjnzk/Kmode.dmp?dl=0

its odd but fixed all errors over time except "unexpected_kernel_mode_trap"
hope this helps a little tho. that dump is from a crash 15 mins ago while loading into an arma 3 server.
Edit: "kmode exception not handled " just happened. also gimme a min ill set up a drop box for all 3 files (first may have been kmode aswell im not 100% sure now)

Any idea how to fix that? cause it'd be a shame to not run arma anymore.
only difference between this build and the old one ATM is the cpu and mobo. might be a clash with them and BattleEye.
oh actualy it might be possible to disable the anti cheat.

oh and the new mouse i ended up getting (some cobalt gaming mouse. it has its own drivers but that seemed to fix the crashes happening randomly instead of making more problems)

also those any idea with the second mini dump? (marked kmode)

i was typing a msg on here to say the links had been updated when it crashed.
although i think the arma launcher was in the background waiting for me to test if it would happen again.
Edit: Unexpected kernel mode trap again.
