Blue Screen Issues

AngryScotsman · Jan 24, 2014

Not sure if this is in the correct section but here we go. So far in a short space of time I have had 4 Blue screens 3 of which were whilst playing Battlefield 4 and the other was on Warframe these ar the only 2 games I've blue screened on any other game or application seems to be fine. The only error I remember seeing was the IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL and I have no idea what the problem is.
My system specs:
OS: Windows 8.1
CPU: Intel core i5 4670k
MB: ASUS Z87 K
RAM: 2x4GB Gskill Ripjaws
PSU: Corsair RM 650w 80+ Gold
GPU: MSI GTX 770
HDD: WD Caviar Black 1TB

Any Help will be appreciated. Thanks.

-make sure your windows updates are up to date
reboot and update your graphics drivers from the vendor

if it still fails, make sure your game is up to date.
if it continues to fail you have to look at the crash dump file or just guess at what is causing the failure and update drivers or run diagnostics to isolate problems. gets long and involved

Thanks for the reply. How would I check the crash dump file and what kind of diagnostics would I run.
Also I blue screened again today and it was on warframe, the error was Whea uncorrectable error.

whea uncorrectable error is generally a error called by the CPU because of internal failure of cache memory in the CPU.
- make sure your BIOS is up to date
- disable overclocking
- check to see that the CPU is at the proper voltage setting in BIOS
- turn off any speed boost in the CPU via the BIOS

retest for failure
