As of late, I've been getting blue screens of death and pc crashes.
The error reports have been : "Kernal Mode Trap Error" something something, and also, today, : "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"
I've looked online and found solutions which I have been trying out, to the best of my crappy ability.
From what I can ascertain, it's probably my video card, ram, or, MOST LIKELY some stupid drivers for them that were bugged. The only things I've gotten around the time these bluescreens began were graphics card drivers.
Just a moment ago, I was able to get a lot of updated drivers from Nvidia GeForce Xperience or whatever the fuck it is. There were updated ones that my last update didn't get.
I'm hoping to God Almighty that this fixes my problem.
If it doesn't, expect a lot of random poofing from me randomly x--x;. I'm able to use my PC at this point in time, (clearly since I'm writing this journal), but I think these problems are a pretty good indicator that it's high time I got a new PC, even if this one keeps working now.
If my PC continues to blue screen and stuff, I may have to find a tech-savvy person to bug for help T_T. ...
On this note, I'm doing my best to do ych's and some silent coms at the moment to save up for a new PC. Trying to figure out all the mumbo jumbo mess of PC parts is a nightmare all its own, so I may end up finding a techsavvy person anyway just to help me actually build a GOOD one that isn't going to blow up in five minutes.
I suppose this journal is an update as much as me letting off steam. I just thought it'd be important to let everyone know what was up.
SO! I'm sorry if I randomly vanish from anywhere due to crashes. AND, I'll be doing YCH's and possibly opening coms, but only if I'm sure I'll still have a PC to be able to create them xP. I'm backing up all of the art data to an external HD, so don't worry about anything in-progress being lost!
I'm considering going in debt for a PC, if it comes down to that. Blah.
But, yup, that's the update! Thank you for reading, and I hope you are having a better day than me x'D.

If not, CyberPower PC has some decent rigs at (fairly) affordable prices. And alternative is Ironside Computers, who offer payment plans if I recall correctly.
Tyvm for the info!
Also, Nvida cards/drivers in my opinion are the best out there but are very unstable. I have constant issues with my current card but when I had a radeon it was stable as heck just not as good.
You would then also be able to keep your old rig as a back up in case anything happens instead of trashing it.
Rebuking software for a new Computer isn't cheap.
Although that is terrible to hear bud, but we'll be happy to help you. I have been running into some problems with windows 10 myself anyway, especially with some drivers, but don't worry we'll help!
If you can, try replacing some specific components instead of getting a new computer all together. At least then probably wouldn't end up creeping into the 1000's depending on the hardware :x
Hope you can get that upgrade you need
alternatively you can use software to test ram for flouts(lots available on-line)
if its graphical driver its also easy to get rid of of installing older drivers (on win10 it can be trickier but manageable)
if it happened "of the sudden" after some updates most likely its graphical card as its much more likely then one of your components "randomly stopping to work just enough to cause blue screens but not enough to stop working completly"
just as a disclaimer. the pc build guides there dont include an operating system. so you would need to add $100 or so for windows 10
BLUE
In all seriousness, IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL means that there's a Memory-related problem (Maybe give it reminders, lmao)
Install BlueScreenView (https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html) and the next time you get a Blue Screen, use that program to get a more detailed look. there's a built-in google search option that can help you out. Certainly did for me!
Why don't you try putting a different OS on it? Pretty much all Linux distros are free, and some like Ubuntu and Mint are easy to use. And you can use Wine with them if you need compatibility with Windows programs.
