Hi All,

A customer is occasionally getting the following bsod:

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL 0x0000000A

Usually when shutting down, but not always.

Since it means that some driver is writing to memory
that is out of bounds, it is looking like a needle in
a haystack to find. Nothing new has been installed
for months, maybe a year. Does anyone know of a utility
or technique to figure out "who done it"?

Many thanks,
-T

Sure the free utility called "BlueScreenView" is the easy way.

Blue screen of death (STOP error) information in dump files.

There's an article here by Mark Russinovich, if you want to play around.
