Hi experts, I have just built a computer for my girlfriend for christmas and I'm encountering multiple bsods.
Most common error would be IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Things I have done:
Clean install of win 10
Windows memory Diagnostics / Memtest86 Single and double sticks with no errors.
Updated Bio/windows updates/Drivers

I have used bluescreenview and noticed the cause is ntoskrnl.exe

Here's the specs: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/cWHLjieOYSTSFG8RTJIEOzi


Please help me as I'm at my wits end. Hope i can fix it in time as a present for my girlfriend for christmas!

I see you have Driver Verifier enabled. Enable all standard options and 2 additional options (Force pending I / O request and IRP Logging) and enable this Driver Verifier for all drivers except Microsoft drivers

Ok. Is there anything that I have to upload to show you?
 
New crash dumps if some blue screens still show up
 
Rich (BB code):
ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY (be)
An attempt was made to write to readonly memory.  The guilty driver is on the
stack trace (and is typically the current instruction pointer).
When possible, the guilty driver's name (Unicode string) is printed on
the bugcheck screen and saved in KiBugCheckDriver.
Arguments:
Arg1: fffff80172c9cfc3, Virtual address for the attempted write.
Arg2: 0900000001fe6121, PTE contents.
Arg3: fffff801756646e0, (reserved) << Trap frame of last saved context
Arg4: 000000000000000a, (reserved)

As the bugcheck suggests, it appears that a driver has attempted to write to a memory address which does not have permit write access.

The call stack from the last saved context, suggests that a graphics card driver may be to blame here:

I've dumped the entire thread stack, and it appears that the AMD graphics card driver may be the culprit.

    Information from resource tables:

I would recommend uninstalling the AMD graphics card driver, and then installing the latest version again directly from the download page.

However, some of the dump files appear to be corrupt, which could suggest issues with the RAM. Have you ensured that the RAM modules are seated correctly and are compatible with each other?

Please run this memory test for each individual stick in each individual slot - Test RAM with PassMark MemTest86

Alternatively, you may wish to run the system with one stick at a time and see if it remains stable.

Thanks for you detailed analysis. I have reinstalled the driver. Will see if it helps.


I have ran Memtest86 and windows memory diagnostics multiple times (each with 4 passes), both single and double sticks. No errors.

I have uploaded a new sysnative zip above for your perusal
