hey yall.
i am at loss of wtf to do.

my windows 10 laptop keeps bsoding at random, but especially when i play games. throws errors like "IRQL_LESS_OR_NOT_EQUAL" and shit. i ran memtest on a drive and it came up clean. sfc scannow and dism came up clean too. i disassembled my laptop and reslotted the ram and cleaned it, still happens. genuinely idk what to do. is me dualbooting Linux a problem? or what

pls help

@mynameistillian a Linux installation that isn't running won't make the Windows kernel panic, did you install any new drivers lately? try rebooting in safe mode and checking if the issue still occurs. Might be worth reinstalling (or doing the new thing where it reinstalls but keeps user data) and only installing the drivers you absolutely need

@mynameistillian could also be a hardware issue, I suppose. This looks like a good guide to troubleshooting it: tomshardware.com/how-to/fix-ir
