A few days back I started up my PC and my phenom II x6 1100t was clocked at 3847Mhz. The day before that it was at 3.3ghz flat. I noticed higher temps investigated saw that it had somehow Oced itself and brought it back down to 3351mhz (weird its not flat) then I encountred freezing then crashing the next day. Please help because I keep getting the BSOD with irql not less or equal. I have tested my ram and that's not the issue. Now I crash every time I boot into windows. Any insight would be appreciated.

There are a few different paths to take to troubleshoot this
Usually interrupt errors are associated with RAM but I'm thinking this may be the result of a bot attack. (We'll be keeping that possibility open)
What kind of cooling do you have for your CPU? What kind of graphics card are you running? Can you check to see what your CPU and graphics usage* is?

Sorry for all the questions, it should help


* Graphics use can be read from GPU-z under sensors tab and CPU use can be seen in CoreTemp (both free programs)

I had that error happening with my 8320. What I noticed what my bus frequency was changing and overclocking itself. I had to go into the bios and change it. It ran mostly smooth at 216 but would bsod with that same error. Check to see if your multiplyer is changing and your MB isn't set in a "performance" mode.
