The “IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL” error in Windows 10, identified by the stop code 0x0000000A, typically occurs due to hardware, driver, or system file corruption issues. The error means that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access a memory address that it shouldn’t have. Here\u2019s how to fix this issue using the 17 methods listed below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Reasons for Driver irql_less_or_not_equal Error<\/h3>\n

Although there are many unidentified reasons for this error, we have compiled a list of common reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Damaged System Files:<\/b> System file corruption can occur due to virus attacks or malware infections affecting Windows system files or related program files.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Incompatible Drivers:<\/b> Installing new hardware may lead to driver conflicts with existing drivers, causing a BSOD.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Overheated CPU:<\/b> If the CPU exceeds a certain temperature, the system may shut down abruptly<\/a> with a BSOD to prevent damage.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Windows Updates or Downgrades:<\/b> Installing updates or downgrades may improperly replace system files and create conflicts between different Windows versions.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Hardware Issues:<\/b> Problems with hardware components, such as a damaged motherboard or RAM, can trigger BSODs.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Corrupted Registry:<\/b> Recent software installations or uninstallations might corrupt the Windows registry.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    How To Fix Driver irql_less_or_not_equal Blue Screen Error<\/h2>\n

    Try each step individually and check if the issue has been resolved after each step. This way, you can ignore the remaining steps after resolving the issue. Let us begin troubleshooting the error without further ado.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Method 1: Disconnect External Devices And Restart Windows<\/h3>\n

    The first step is to remove all external devices except the mouse and keyboard. After disconnecting all other peripherals, external storage, and devices, reboot your PC. If the PC restarts without any issue and you do not get this error again, then you have to attach the external devices one by one and identify which external device causes the error.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Method 2: Keep Your PC Cool<\/h3>\n

    Some experts have suggested that extreme temperature causes PC issues like Blue Screen errors<\/a>, including the \u201cdriver irql not less or equal\u201d error. Ensure the CPU is in a well-ventilated area and the inbuilt fans are working properly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Method 3: Scan For Malware<\/h3>\n

    Tech reports state that Malware is responsible for 50% of the issues on your PC. A \u201cDriver irql_less_or_not_equal\u201d blue screen error can occur due to malware infection. In this case, we recommend you run a malware scan using the antivirus software you prefer and ensure the system is malware-free. If you are using Windows Security software, here are the steps:<\/span><\/p>\n

    Step 1: Press the Windows key and type \u201cWindows Security\u201d.\"Windows<\/span><\/p>\n

      \"drive<\/p>\n

      Step 4: If your SSD or HDD<\/a> does not appear to be in good condition, consider replacing the drive and reinstalling the operating system.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Method 14: Disable Third-Party Services<\/h3>\n

      After using Windows 10\/11 for an extended period, various services may be scheduled to start automatically when you boot your PC. These can sometimes cause problems. To address this, we will disable third-party services and ensure that Windows only loads essential system services. Here\u2019s how to do it:<\/span><\/p>\n

      Step 1: Press Win + R to open the Run dialog. Type \u201c<\/span>msconfig\u201d<\/b> and click OK.
      \n<\/span>Step 2: Next, navigate to the \u2018Services\u2019 tab.
      \n<\/span>Step 3: Check the box for \u2018Hide all Microsoft services\u2019 to ensure these services are hidden. Then, click \u2018Disable All\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \"System
      \nStep 4: Click \u2018OK\u2019 when finished and restart your system to apply the changes.<\/p>\n

      Method 15: Disable on-board graphics<\/h3>\n

      Step 1: Restart your computer and enter BIOS\/UEFI settings. This is usually done by pressing a key such as F2, Del, Esc, or F10 during the startup process (refer to your motherboard’s manual if needed).<\/span><\/p>\n

      Step 2: Look for settings related to graphics or display. This might be under sections like Advanced, Chipset Configuration, or Integrated Peripherals.
      \n<\/span>Step 3: Locate the option for Primary Display or IGD (Integrated Graphics Device) and set it to Disabled or select the dedicated graphics card as the primary display adapter.
      \n<\/span>Step 4: Save your changes and exit BIOS\/UEFI. Your computer will restart.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Method 16: System Restore<\/h3>\n

      A system restore will revert your PC to a previous state where everything functions correctly without losing your files. However, you will lose any applications installed after the restore point and any settings changes made since then. Here\u2019s how to perform a system restore:<\/span><\/p>\n

      Step 1. Reboot your PC into the Windows Recovery Environment and select Troubleshoot.
      \n<\/span>Step 2. Choose “Advanced options” and then “System Restore”.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \"Advanced<\/p>\n

      Step 3. Select your Administrator Account, enter your password, and click “Continue”.
      \n<\/span>Step 4. Choose the system restore point you created and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.<\/span><\/p>\n
