Hi Babis,

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL can occur in mostly versions of windows whatever you having Windows Vista, 7, 8 or maybe Windows 10 in your PC.
The bad thing about this error is your computer’s having a problem with some file which they also don’t able to identify to show you some status like which one is creating this problem.

You can try the below fixes and see if it resolves the error.

Fix 1. Hardware Compatibility
Hardware compatibility is a checkup of computer’s hardware that is, it’s compatible with a particular type of operating system, software or maybe some another hardware device which typically including many types of peripheral devices.

If you’ve recently connected some new hardware to your PC then, remove it and test your PC maybe the problem has gone.
If you’ve recently installed some new software in your computer then, just uninstall it. Or maybe if you wanna to keep that new software then make sure it’s compatible with your current installed operating system.

Fix 2. Remove the USB
Sometimes computer’s operating system getting problem to install or operate external USB device’s drivers and creating this IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error.
The simple solution is you can try to remove all external USB connected devices to your desktop and restart it and after that try to use your computer as in normal way for just likely using it for testing purpose and see did you still getting this error or not.

By ‘Remove USB’ I mean disconnect and remove all your USB connected devices like printer cable, scanner cable, webcam cable, external hard disk drive etc. beside USB mouse and keyboard.

If BSOD Solved
– If the 0x0000000A error gone that means you having problem with your USB connected hardware drivers so, connect one by one USB device to your computer and analyze which one creating this problem. After finding that USB connect hardware which creates this problem you’ll need to reinstall drivers for that particulate hardware.

Fix 3: Update Drivers
If the above fixes don’t work for you then It’s possible your windows drivers got corrupted and due to driver corruption it might quite possible your windows files and registry files also got corrupted too.
So you need to install or update our computers driver and repair our windows files both in order to fix this problem.

I hope this helps in fixing this error.

Regards,
Lokesh

I kept getting the blue screen with Driver Power State Failure error message and then my computer would restart. I found your product and it did not happen any more. I just purchased an anti-virus (kaspersky) and now it is doing it again. It is so frustrating. My computer is only 6 months old. It is a Asus desktop.
