Learn how to troubleshoot and resolve the IRQL Not Less or Equal Blue Screen of Death error in Windows. This video covers common causes, including driver issues and hardware conflicts, and provides step-by-step solutions such as updating drivers, running Windows updates, and using diagnostic tools to fix this frustrating error. The IRQL Not Less or Equal error often occurs when a kernel-mode driver or process attempts to access a memory address without proper authorization. This can be caused by outdated or corrupted device drivers, hardware issues, or conflicts between installed software. To fix this error, start by booting your computer into Safe Mode. To do this, restart your computer and press the F eight key repeatedly before Windows starts loading. Once in Safe Mode, open Device Manager by right-clicking on the Start button and selecting Device Manager from the menu. In Device Manager, look for any devices with a yellow exclamation mark next to them. These indicate driver issues. Right-click on these devices and select Update Driver. Choose to search automatically for updated driver software. If Windows finds a new driver, install it and restart your computer. If updating drivers does not resolve the issue, the next step is to check for Windows updates. Open the Settings app, go to Update and Security, and click on Check for updates. Install any available updates and restart your computer. Sometimes, the error can be caused by faulty hardware, particularly RAM. Run a memory diagnostic tool by typing memory diagnostic in the Windows search bar and selecting Windows Memory Diagnostic.
