Multiple BSOD and game crashes

weyandtdylan · May 16, 2018

So i have seen multiple answers to this question on this sub and they all seem to have different answers and seemingly no results. I have been getting alot of crashes on fortnite specifically. I tried all kinds of things to fix it to not avail. Chalked it up to a bug with the game until last night when i was playing league and it was crashing multiple times mid game and ultimately gave me a bsod with the irql_not_less_than error.

I get irql and memory management bsods. Ive tried updating my graphics drivers and ran the basic mem test. Im gonna try running with one stick of ram tonight and then the other. Im curious as to what i can do to narrow down the problem between drivers or hardware or what.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I would begin with a lengthy memtest86+ test (from an bootable flash drive made from the ISO). I generally run one overnight checking for any errors in the morning or if I happen to get up in the middle of the night. Any errors usually means the ram isn't fully compatible (new system build or new ram was installed), something wrong with the ram or motherbd.

Please list your system's specs with model#'s of the parts, inicluding the ram kit(s) used.
Thank you.

I ran memtest and had no problem but after messing with settings in my bios (ram was overclocked from using some ez settings in my bios, couldnt remember if this was before or after i started having problems) and also downloading msi afterburner, i havent had the crashes again.

Solution: either my OC ram was giving me trouble or nothing was controlling my gpu fans and my gpu was overheating and slowly getting worse to where it would crash games constantly. Double check your bios settings and temps before thinking about new hardware.
