DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

[Anteara]

Hi guys, I know that there are a ton of threads about this issue on the forum, but I also know that the fix is different for everyone, hence my making this thread.

I need urgent help guys as my PC is crashing almost every night.

Here is a picture of the BSOD.


Attached are two minidumps, from the 22nd and the 23rd, 012312-24523-01 is from the 23rd and is the latest one. These two dumps are the only two files located in C:\Windows\Minidump.

My PC Specs:

PSU: Corsair VX-450
GPU: NVidia GTX 560
CPU: Intel e6500
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high.  This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If kernel debugger is available get stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000323, memory referenced
Arg2: 0000000000000002, IRQL
Arg3: 0000000000000000, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
Arg4: fffff880014c5c42, address which referenced memory

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0xD1)
Similar to 0xA this error is caused when the attempt was made to access a pageable address while IRQL was too high or the memory itself is corrupt. Usually common to assume this one is a driver issue.

This particular error was initiated from a read operation, and directly points to L1C62x64.sys. Most recent in trap indicates a query for the net buffer physical count by uTorrent.exe.

BOTH crash dumps with the same error point towards L1C62x64.sys driver, which is your Atheros L1c PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller. I would suggest reinstalling that network driver to test, as it seems to be the problem here by uTorrent calling it.



Reinstalling Drivers:

• 1. Make sure after uninstalling, that a reboot is made
  2. After rebooting your system install the necessary drivers, and do one more final reboot for all possible changes to take effect

Download and install Driver Sweeper to remove and reinstall the following drivers: L1C62x64.sys
*Please note the above steps for proper driver reinstallation

Upon noticing other errors however, I would also suggest this...



1) Download and run Memtest86 on boot: http://www.memtest86.com

• Make sure to let it run and do it's thing for about the first 6 tests. If it passes those, then everything should be good, otherwise any failure to pass those tests indicates a corruption in your memory.
• If you get an error on one of the tests, then you should try by booting up your computer with each RAM inserted separately one at a time. When you find one that doesn't return any errors then test it in every single RAM slot to test for a bad socket.
