Error code IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL in Windows 10 setup indicates a system access violation.
Error code IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL in Windows 10 setup indicates a system access violation.
I've used Windows 10 on my laptop before and it works fine with 7/8. The technical preview for W10 fails during setup, showing a BSOD with the message "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL." My PC is relatively old but still supports SSE2, PAE, and NX as needed. It has 2GB of RAM and runs 32-bit. This version is directly from Microsoft (v1803). Are there any new restrictions on my hardware? Could I find an older release somewhere?
