That error means either your cpu is overheating, so stick some new thermal grease on the cpu, make sure the cooler is fixed properly and not full of dust if that fails put new cooler on it, take the side off the case and stick a room fan on it for the time being or it means your ram is fucked in which case buy some new stick\sticks, most likely its the first option.

Ah the famous "Blue Screen of Death" as Disturbia says try to start in it in safe mode, then shutdown and restart normally. If thats doesnt work you pretty much have to reload the operating system.

FDISK. Works every time.

Anyways. 90% of blue screens come from the video drivers trying to load content it couldn't

Safe mode wont do shit, his cpu is overheating so even it does boot he'll get same error eventually, or his ram is bad.

"IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"

The clues are there.

True - I've had this problem before except it was with the graphics card wearing out. I reinstalled the operating system (shitty Vista) but that didn't solve the problem - the problem is hardware related, not software. Once I bought a new graphics card I've never had the problem again. In this case it is the CPU.

Trouble is, you might want to buy and install the same model of CPU as you've already got - buying an upgrade may mean you have to flash the BIOS - and then it's knowing which BIOS is most compatible - the newest BIOS update isn't always the best one. You'll fuck up your whole computer if you get it wrong - an expensive mistake to make.

His cpu is likely fine, Im going to take a guess wherever he is its boiling hot, the air con sucks in his computer room and he has his Computer Case inside some kind of Cabinet killing the airflow.

Yep, the airflow could be the problem - if it isn't possible to rearrange the computer to a cooler part of the room, then it may be of benefit just to buy a new heatsink and fan which I think are only a couple of bucks.

Get Big Dicked Bobs to remotely connect and fix this issue.

Eyeball Chambers · « **Reply #15 on:** August 02, 2010, 03:00:08 PM »

Thanks everyone, thanks DB.

I started to restore, and it's still copying files because I didn't know any better.

I did notice that the heat sink was extremely hot, my fan is working good and everything.

Thanks again for the info, I guess that is the problem!

If this dont work dawg just contact a rich hot cougar to buy you a new one for servies rendered.

That could also mean something is wrong with a piece of hardware, drivers wise. Go into device manager, make sure that all the drivers are installed and running ok!

Blue screen of death sucks!

Thanks, it doesn't even get to the first windows xp screen before this pops up. I've tried safe mode.

Safe mode not going to help unless u know what you're doing.
Load your back up from 2 months back.
But it seems like a hardware problem tho.

saucetradomous · « **Reply #22 on:** August 02, 2010, 04:25:19 PM »

From what I've come across before I'd say it's either overheating like everyone else is saying or it could be the power supply. You might need a new stronger one to replace those 300 watt standard ones.

newmom · « **Reply #23 on:** August 02, 2010, 04:51:05 PM »

haha Eyeballs, got the same blue screen just recently. It's nothing series though. Still think another keylogger was put on the computer so off it goes.

garebear · « **Reply #24 on:** August 02, 2010, 05:02:23 PM »

This works for me -

Power down the computer, even if you have to hold the power button down for about ten seconds - like I have to do on my laptop. When I turn the power back on, it gives me the option of starting in safe mode.

Start in safe mode and let it boot all the way up. After that, just do a normal restart and I always get everything back that way.

I've just found that it works for my laptop.
