Solved IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Ditto. Please get back to us if you solved the issue or not. Our household uses mostly ASUS PCs on a regular basis and audio has always been the bane in this regard here, on the home front. I recall getting so fed up with ASUS audio drivers I put a Creative SoundBlaster card in the wife's Sabertooth. Come to think of it, she was getting the same BSOD you were. Mind, that's a common one so I'm not about to conclude it's your audio drivers. . . At least not yet. By all means, get back to us.

I surely will. It's the least I can do for all the help I have received from you all. But so far, 2 days of heavy use and no BSODs or game crashes so here's to hoping. :crossed

BTW that is some mighty fine hardware you're running. I had a feeling you were using an ASUS system board so I had a peek. From my experience IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL is almost always a driver related hardware issue. You might need to roll back to one of the original drivers provided by ASUS. Just a thought. Have you tried running it without the GFX card just to see what you get? Admittedly, I haven't read the whole of the thread but it looks as though you are in good hands.

Thank you! ASUS, I am learning, is notorious for buggy software. But they have hands down the best motherboards IMO as far as features. I have had problems in the past with Sonic Studio, which actually when working, was pretty good software but it was buggy and it caused games crashes and possibly BSODs as well.

Well friends, I think we can safely say that it was Boom3D that was causing the BSOD. Well, Maybe EaseUS as well. I'm about to find out as I am about to re-install it. But I have been off work the last few days and I spent a majority of that time on this machine either gaming or watching videos. A game that used to crash on me so many times that I was banned from joining a lobby for 6 hours I was able to play hours upon hours straight without a single crash. Suffice it to say, absolutely no BSODs either. After EaseUS is back and running for a couple of days and I get no BSODs, I will mark this as solved. Thank you everyone for your help and patience and its been a great learning experience for me as well.

Please post a new V2 share link into the newest post.

As requested.

Did you notice:

a) hangs
b) freezes
c) unexpected shutdowns and restarts
d) BSOD

Did you power off the computer?

keredd1010 · Sep 2, 2023

Nope. None of those. I have rebooted the computer and powered it off at least half a dozen times (possibly more) in the last few days. Was doing some hardware work on it.

When possible, monitor the computer for unexpected shutdowns and restarts without any power offs.

The settings are now optimal for detecting BSOD.

x BlueRobot · Sep 3, 2023

I'm glad you haven't had any further BSODs, let's see what happens when you install EaseUS again, hopefully you won't have any crashes

keredd1010 · Sep 7, 2023

I think it is safe to say the issue has now been resolved. I appreciate everyone's help in this. I did a recent V2 and attached it to this message. Thanks again for everyone's advice and patience.

Scannerman · Sep 7, 2023

Luvvit when a plan comes together.

Scannerman · Sep 7, 2023

Wait 'til 23H2 comes and you'll get to start all over again.

The last BSOD reported in the log files was 08/31/2023.

The last unexpected shutdown and restart reported in the log files was 09/02/2023.

The last AMD GPU possible hangs (3) reported in the log files was 09/06/2023.
On 09/05 there were 5 possible hangs.
(These started on 09/05 and were not yet reported on 09/07.)

Code:

AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_164E&SUBSYS_88771043&REV_C3\4&1EBE6A9C&0&0041    This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device.

keredd1010 · Oct 6, 2023

Hello friends! Just thought I'd stop by and let everyone know after a month, still no crashes. I do have EaseUs back installed for just as long. So Boom3D was it. Strange cuz I used it on my last PC without any issues. Any who, I'm just glad its fixed.

Thanks!

zbook · Oct 6, 2023

Glad to read about the continued computer stability.

Thanks for the follow up.

0XA/0x0000000a is often caused by overclocking your CPU core(s) too much. This includes "boosting" beyond factory defaults. This often means that you need to reduce the maximum CPU core frequency by at least about 50 MHz, if applying a custom boost clock.

Same with access-violations when browsing, especially random access-violation errors when scrolling web pages. In my case, that was me apparently losing the CPU-core-silicon-lottery and that my Ryzen 5 5600X is a dud that can't do 4.8 GHz, IIRC.

Maybe my Ryzen 7 5800X will do better, but I have to watch the core temps! It's a hot tamale, apparently, LOL.

Such errors may also be improper CO (curve-optimizer) settings on Vermeer and later Ryzens.

Are you using CO on your Raphael?

keredd1010 · Oct 12, 2023

Nope. I usually do go for overclocks but this CPU runs so darn fast at the default settings and super hot which is the main reason I didn't bother with the O.C. In fact, I have heard some people undervolting this particular CPU because they were so uncomfortable with the temps which hover at around 95c under full load. I mean, I get it. I am coming from a Ryzen 3600 which ran at 70c max under full load but AMD says this temp is perfectly normal.

That sounds like the meme of Ryzen 7 5800X!

Even though I only got 90C when the pump wasn't running fast enough.

I ran Maxon Cinebench R23 at approximately 70F for room temp and got 83C for multicore.

Ryzen 7 5800Xs have trouble with core temps, because of everything being crammed onto a single CCD, IIRC.
Looks like the 59x0Xs are better in this department.
