Continuing to encounter IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL or driver overflow stack buffer issues.
Perfmon Report Minidumps Windows 10 Home (original OEM setup) AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics 2.90 GHz NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Eluktronics RP-15 Laptop I’ve installed all the drivers. I’ve used the System File Checker. The Event Viewer contents are confusing me most of the time. Most errors appear while watching YouTube videos, but that could be due to my viewing habits. Most games run fine, though playing Creeper World Anniversary Edition or Creeper World 2 Anniversary Edition often causes a blue screen. When I first got this laptop, it would shut down unexpectedly whenever I moved it. Since then, after reseating the RAM and relocating the NVMe SSD, the problem seems to have improved. I’m still unsure which change resolved it.
Recent updates on AMD chipset drivers and the newest BIOS versions.
Apologies for the slow response. I wasn’t looking to force a blue screen just to confirm the issue remains. After reviewing your message, I refreshed my AMD drivers. Creeper World still causes crashes around the 15-minute point. I’m not certain this matches the YouTube crashes, but they’re inconsistent enough to test reliably. I haven’t seen any BIOS updates on the Eluktronics site, and it doesn’t list an update option. If it’s outdated, locating newer versions seems challenging. Edit: Another crash occurred during a YouTube video, which means the driver update didn’t resolve it.
The tool reports issues with driver compatibility and version mismatches. Consider checking the registry settings as suggested. Evaluate whether this approach resolves your problem or if further troubleshooting is needed.
I mentioned earlier that I often encounter the error when creating dump files and usually don’t see any program listed in the blue screen. Once before, a blue screen did reference amdppm.sys, but I hesitated to explore the registry as some guides suggested. The internet had led me to think this program was part of my AMD graphics, so I tried disabling it. That helped me play through multiple levels of Creeper World without issues, giving me hope things might be resolved. However, later a long level caused the system to blue-screen again. Recently, the screen went black while watching a YouTube video, and I had no choice but to restart. It seems the issue is still present. Additionally, I noticed videos sometimes losing sync with audio, and I’ve heard odd clicking or snapping sounds in the sound. Looking closer, it appears amdppm.sys handles power states, not onboard graphics. Some sources suggest IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL might point to a power problem. Could switching to a less power-hungry mode help? Eluktronics has pre-installed software that cycles through presets without clear explanation. I’ve kept the system at its top setting, but I’m wondering if trying the second-highest preset would reduce crashes.
