Had this on a friends XP machine the other day. Turned out to be a graphic
deiver problem. He had two graphic drivers for the one card!
 
I am very curious to see if you had a resolution to this problem.
I purchased a Vista ready Toshiba satellite on April 1. (Yes, April fools
day). It worked beautifully for a month and now I get that same error. So
very frustrating.
 
I have the same problem, plus my superfetch crashes aswell.
I have the same simptoms, it sucks because my internet stops working and
ever since i got my computer (about 1 and a half months ago) it kept on
crashing with a blue screen saying DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL so is there
anything i can do to fix it?
A guy in a hardware shop said to read what the blue screen said but It only
stays for two seconds so all i manage to read is DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
please help, its annoying me!!
 
Go into Control Panel, System / Maintenance / System / Advanced system
settings / Startup and Recovery, and uncheck automatically restart. You
will then stay on the BSOD screen so you can tell the guy in the hardware
shop what the message is. You should also take Ricks advice and with a
relatively new computer contact the manufacturer. This is usually a driver
issue. Sometimes hardware.

Usually it is a driver issue. Go to Start\Run and type in verifier and hit OK. Use the Create standard settings and
see which driver (s) it is asking to verify. Post those back here.

Also this error can also signify a hardware issue. First start with the above
 
Go to Video Card Maker's Site and get their latest driver
DO NOT USE UpDate Driver in Device Manager. Also
look to see if they have a utility to UnInstall their drivers.
Also look for how to install, update their drivers at their
site.

Be sure to put new driver somewhere that you can easily
find it. Use the uninstall utility if they have one. If not
run the driver.
