Hello, lately I have been having a bit of instability, in particular, doing processor intensive things.
I recently got a BSOD, all that I was able to record was "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"
googling this BSOD revealed that it can be anything, but usually points to processor, in particular overheating.
I decided to do a Prime 95 test while monitoring my temps with Everest. My temps were hitting 45ºC max out of their 72ºC limit. After a few more minutes, my motherboard temperature disappeared and then my CPU temp was 63ºC. Then, in a second or two, my temperature went back to 43ºC.
I have gotten an error once before, and once while writing this about my CPU fan not working. Luckily it just appeared and I took a SS of it.
Just noticed something, my time has switched to military time.
Here is a link, the picture is too large.
I have a bit of dust on my heatsink, do you believe that this dust could be stopping the fan? Perhaps the fan is failing?
