Some of you may have been stunned when you suddenly got a blue screen error that says “Irql_not_less_or_equal”. A windows blue screen appears with that exact message and in an instant your machine crushes, forcing you to reboot. The blue screen of death (BSOD) error is either caused by a buggy device driver or a hardware problem. There are a myriad of reasons why this problem occurs.

The first cause of this problem is that your computer may have overheated too much. Check whether your computer temperature is too high and as a remedy have a cooling fan fixed to it.

However, the major cause for your computer showing such a blue screen error Irql_Not_Less_Or_Equal may have to do with your Windows registry, especially the HAL (Hardware abstraction layer).The HAL is a process in the windows registry that is designed to act as the communication link between the drivers and the hardware. When your registry is corrupted, HAL’s communication with the hardware is hampered. This causes your computer to hang and give you the BSOD error. This problem requires a rather talented geek to solve it but with a bit of hard work and luck you could as well solve it. As a first step, scan your computer with a registry repair program that is able to fix problems in the HAL layer. Also, if have loaded a new device driver, you could try to remove it and see if the problem goes away or persists.
