Windows 10 Blue Screen DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Well I haven’t had a BSOD since the last one, I might have jinxed myself with that statement though, I still don’t know what is causing them though.

You can run
[ICODE]chkdsk /f[/ICODE]
and it’ll be fine. Just do not run chdsk /r or defrag it.

As to your question about what caused it, a chkdsk scan might likely repair it for you. We already replaced a problem driver and it seems to be ok

Speaking of defragging. I just checked defrag and disk optimization and Windows had it automatically set to defrag my C drive weekly, my C Drive is my SSD though, and from wat I understand SSD’s don’t need to be defragged and shouldn’t be defragged becuase of unneccessary wear and tear on them from the defrag process. So I just took that drive off the list.

I ran or am running chkdsk right now, I’m not sure which, I went to run and put in chkdsk /f and prssed enter but nothing happened. Shouldn’t I get a progress window or something if it’s running?

Did you make sure you ran it as Admin?

yep I think we can close this thread, no BSOD since the last one about two weeks ago. I;m not sure what happened they just stopped. Maybe that Windows update fixed everything. Thanks for all the help everyone!!!
