Hi, just recently I have been getting a few of the blue screen of deaths. I made it that it doesn't restart when it shows up and this was what it came up with:
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

What does this mean and how do I fix it?
 
After my computer went to sleep, it got another BSOD. I reset the computer, and I was prompted to log back in. When I did, it still had every window open that was previously however, BlueScreenView didn't save the dump file. Not sure what's going on here.
 
Are you running any type of temp file cleaner? If so, they usually delete the dump files. So when you opened blue screen view nothing appeared at the bottom? Dump files are stored at c:windows\minidumps. Zip up any files in there and attach them to your reply.
 
Yeah, there was no dump file in BlueScreenView, and I don't think I'm running any temporary file cleaners. I also searched for C:\Windows\minidump but it's not on my computer for some reason.
 
I would say start by updating all your drivers. Could be video, ethernet, chipset maybe.
 
I remember now that I couldn't update my video card for a while because GeForce Experience couldn't connect to the net, but I fixed it by reinstalling it and hopefully this update fixes it.
 
Updating the video card didn't work, I got another BSOD. And on top of that, I also got the same problem I once had before where my computer will play the repeating sound and freeze the computer entirely, forcing me to manually restart. Should I downgrade my video card?
 
For WhoCrashed, do I have to have it open at the time of the crash or does it just record any crash that happens even when it's closed? Because I got another BSOD again just then, and neither WhoCrashed nor BlueScreenView recorded the dump files. The BSOD mentioned something about my computer stopping a corrupt driver. How can I be sure which driver it is? In Device Manager I have a warning sign next to Ethernet Controller and Photosmart Prem C410 series, and when I try and update them it says that Windows can't find any updates, how do I fix this?

Please give us the model number of the motherboard if its a custom built computer or make and model of pc if it was store bought. Updating through device manager usually won't find updates.
 
While the HP printer is installing it stops and says "The system cannot find the file specified". How do I fix this?
 
At the top of the window it says: "D:\Setup\hpzpnp40.exe" -*"C:\Program Files\HP\{C1164ED0-EF08-480...
Then it just cuts off there.
 
I don't know if this helps, but in the path:
C:\Program Files\HP\{C1164ED0-EF08-4B0B-8084-3BDAEAAEFD8D}
it has two folders: "gup" contains: autorun.inf, dummy.dat, and hpomdl52.dat
and "wup" contains: autorun.inf, dummy.dat, and fix1.dat
 
Uninstall your old HP software first and then try reinstalling. You may have to manually delete all hp folders from c drive, providing you don't have any more hp software installed.
 
I uninstalled it all, then deleted all the HP folders in the C drive, and when I run the PS_AIO_07_C410_FSW_Full_Win_enu_140_222.exe installer it just closes while it's installing and puts a HP folder in Program Files that does nothing. I'll use the CD installer instead.

The CD installer did the exact same thing; it started running, then just stopped and did nothing. In my control panel I uninstalled all HP products except this one because it wouldn't let me: HP Support Solutions Framework.
