Okay this problem has been on and off for the last 6 months but recently has got so bad i can barely use my computer.
It started where usually every morning my computer would BSOD, or when i'm playing 3D games. The error message is always IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I have no idea what this means but no file is mentioned at the bottom, i just get a STOP and the numbers for the error. Sadly tho, now it usually happens when my computer boots up and as soon as Media Portal opens. Then it crashes and shows the BSOD. I've tried both 0.2.1 and 0.2.2 versions in case that might help but no such luck.
I've tried updating my chipset drivers and my graphics card drivers but no luck. Ive tried reinstalling Windows but not luck. I cannot work out when can be causing it.
Now i have to press CRTL + ALT + DEL to close Media Portal really quickly before it opens and crashes the computer, i don't think MP would cause the problem but what could it be? When I just go into Windows and play media files in Media Player it rarely ever crashes, bout 3 times a week it may crash? if that. And that includes heavy gaming.
Is there any way for me to see a log from the BSOD to find out what causes it?
