I got this error about a week ago and haven't been able to get to my desktop since. I am getting different errors every time. Mostly though, IRQL not less or equal, Page fault in Nonpaged area, and memory management bsods. At the beginning, I tested many different things. I ran memtest86 on each of my ram sticks multiple times coming up with no errors. I unplugged all except my mouse, keyboard, display to ensure it was none of those things. I cleared my cmos and reset my bios to default settings. Then I bought a new hard drive as I was looking to upgrade anyhow. When I bought the new hard drive, it seemed to be working pretty well. I was up and running for about 3 hours, I redownloaded things like chrome, steam, games I play, nvidia Geforce Experience and other essentials for my hardware and peripherals. I booted up H1Z1 as I thought I was good to go and crashed about 5 minutes in, going back to the same old reboot loop that I cannot escape for the life of me.
On bootup, I go into the windows loading area after I get past my bios screen, and it tries to load. Then it crashes into one of the 3 main errors, or other errors with random files attached. After a few tries, It will try to automatically repair, also crashing. I cannot reach the desktop at all, which is where some people are able to find more success. I got frustrated after I crashed and went to the next memory related thing, which was RAM. I figured the memtest may have been wrong and rather than running more tests (I am on a time restraint. I need to be up and running again before the 25th of May) I would rather just buy a few new sticks of DDR4 and throw them in and see if it solves the problem, It obviously didn't. I returned the sticks of RAM and figured since it wasn't those two things, the DIMMS may have been bad. I believe the problem is because of an outage and figured maybe the motherboard had bricked during a power outage/surge. I bought a new motherboard which came in today, which I was pretty sure was going to fix it. It, since I am still writing this post, obviously didn't fix it. I cannot boot from the dvd driver without it trying to go into automatic repair and crashing like it did on the old motherboard.
With Ram, HDD, motherboard out of the way, the only other place that has memory is the GPU. I took it out and used integrated graphics on my cpu, and it still crashed. This leads me to believe that my cpu is corrupted somewhere during an outage/surge. Since I live in the middle of BFE, no-one sells 1151 slot cpus in store, and I would like to figure out whether it is definitely my CPU before I buy a new one or RMA my old one. I asked friends to let me test it out by popping theirs into my pc to test it out if it is the problem, but they don't want to risk it since I am having computer problems in the first place. Before I up and order a new one, I would like to know if anybody here knows of another place that may be the culprit of this problem, I thank all of you for your responses in advance. Have a good day.
