    Hey all I'm running WIN 8 32-bit (which I hate) on an DELL XPS STUDIO 1740 and just recently this started happening. Whenever I connect to my internet connection, via router wired OR wireless I will get a Blue Screen after a minute or two. This does NOT happen when connected to any other network, only this one.

    The screen will read:
    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

    It will then dump physical cache and require a restart.

    It's becoming very frustrating and if anyone knows what I should do, it would be greatly appreciated.
    Could not upload dmp file...uploaded in zip.
    Thanks.

    Since no one else has responded to this. I would delete the connections, reboot and add it back in and see if that fixes it. This could be a FW thing too. They can cause strange problems at times. If the delete/add back in does not work uninstall the the FW completely. reboot then test your connection. If it works try adding the FW back normally this will correct the problem.
