BSOD when gaming/ movies dxgmms1.sys, irql not less...
Hi there,
Over the past few months I have experienced numerous BSoDs on my Windows 8 install. Under the event viewer I always get the Event 41 (Kernel Error) message, and I have experienced multiple variations of the BSoD with reasons including “irql_not_less_or_equal”, “irql_not_less_or_equal: dxgmms1.sys” and “kernel security check failure”.
Over the time I have reinstalled Windows 8 at least twice (including reformatting the primary HDD on all occasions), replaced nearly all the components in my PC, including case, video card, PSU (pretty much everything except the motherboard and ram).
I’ve reviewed many threads on the issue but have had no luck trying to find any solution.
I have attached the dump file, I hope that I have included all the necessary information in that (let me know if there is anything missing).
The errors generally occur when I am using a high performance process such as playing a video game, watching HD movies or rendering. I hope someone is able to help me with this as it has been driving me insane trying to fix it
Thanks for taking the time to read this post!
