My pc recently started crashing with BSOD with code DRIVER IRQL LESS OR NOT EQUAL. Also my pc is starting to run slower than usual and the newest Windows Updates are not installing. What do i do?

Anonymous

My laptop started crashing with BSOD 3 or more years ago. It had some strange problems, and different error codes. and i couldnt identify it because my computer knowledge wasnt that good. That still happens, i fully reinstalled Windows like 6 times and this BSOD happens every time, even after i reistalled Windows. After some time, my laptop started running slowly, and when i enter it, it takes some time to load. And new recent Windows Updates are not installing, because of some errors saying that "files are corrupted" (0x007002) and something like that. I guess it all started because of Updates. I need your help to fix that so this wont annoy me ever again (Note: my friends say that Roblox is crashing some apps some how and drivers are crashing too because of it.)

Hi Danii, the only way to do that is to physicals remove a RAM stick to check the other RAM stick.

Hi Danii,

The only way to know which RAM module to replace, would be to test them individually with MemTest86.
