BSOD IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal

BigDogR · Guest

I have been getting a lot of driver issues, BSOD IRQL.. and BSOD Driver
IRQL... When I was trying to update drivers for sound card, multimedia
card, etc. I would get "Data is invalid" message. I went through the
registrys trying to increase permissions. Then I proceeded to repair my
windows XP and I got the BSOD IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal Stop: 0x0000000A
(0x805769AB, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x805769AB) when the Installing Devices.
I cannot get to safe mode to disable hardware. I went to the MS website
however, it does not cover how to address this problem when repairing Windows.

I am trying to avoid reformating my hard drive with a fresh XP installation,
however, I think I will get the same error.

Any suggestions? This has been frustrating. I have been at it for more
than 2 weeks trying to fix this problem.

What is your computer make and model?

What exactly is your Windows XP system CD?

Have you tried disconnecting all hardware except keyboard, mouse and
monitor?

Is it a laptop or desktop? Do you have a second computer where you could
install the drive from the problem computer as a slave / second drive?

Hope this helps.
