I am having a problem with my computer stopping
frequently and giving me blue screen errors. Some of the
messages I have received are:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Typically due to a bad driver, or faulty or incompatible hardware or
software.
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
The system attempted to access pageable memory using a kernel process IRQL
that was too high. The most typical cause is a bad device driver (one that
uses improper addresses). It can also be caused by caused by faulty or
mismatched RAM, or a damaged pagefile
PAGE_FAULT_IN_Nonpaged_Area
Requested data was not in memory. An invalid system memory address was
referenced. Defective memory (including main memory, L2 RAM cache, video
RAM) or incompatible software (including remote control and antivirus
software) might cause this Stop message, as may other hardware problems
(e.g., incorrect SCSI termination or a flawed PCI card).
I ordered my computer from Dell but they will not call me
back. I just can't seem to solve my problem.

As faulty hardware could be the issue you would need to pursue this with
Dell - additionally any software errors are also their responsibility -
Microsoft do not, cannot and will not assist with OEM installations - all
support is the responsibility of the OEM.
