Windows server 2008 DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) ("d1" means "0x000000D1" here)

Typically, this error occurs when a driver uses an incorrect memory address. Other possible causes of this error are an incompatible device driver, a general hardware problem, and incompatible software.

 

I would like to suggest that you take a look at the following suggestions and see if they can help:

 

1.    Disconnect any external hardware devices (adapters) that are connected to the computer.

 

Including Network adapter, Internal modem, Sound card, Extra hard disks.

 

Additionally, remove or disconnect any hardware that the computer manufacturer does not support. Also, remove any hardware that you recently installed.

 

2.    Contact the computer manufacturer for information about any known compatibility issues and about how to obtain and to install a BIOS update.

 

3.    Run a memory diagnostics test.
