[SOLVED] PC crashes when starting up games.

Hi everyone, i'm a noob with these crashes and all !

My PC allways crashes when i start up games and goes to the Blue screen
with this typed on IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. That is very strange becouse i could play games without any crashes and now they all started to crash my PC (maybe only 2 crashes in a week but now they all started to crash my PC).

Anyway my pc is one month old.

I installed the latest drivers for Nvidia and other(i think)...
I dont think its a overheating problem.

And sometimes i get a Blue screen when i start up my pc and get to the desktop i get PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA.
Sometimes i can get rid off the PC crash when starting up games when i quickly start up a game on the start up of the pc...


So i only get PC crashes when starting them up and its very,very,very rare that i get the crash in a mid of a game( thats the kind of crash i had the first time).

I hope you can help me with this... and sorry for my bad English.

Re: PC crashes when starting up games.

Solved.
I uninstalled nvidia drivers from the disc i had with the video card and downloaded the latest and dont use GAMEROSD becouse it will mess your drivers.
Now all works fine.
