OK!!,
I just fixed a friend of my wifes computer that has exactly the same symptoms as yours(BSOD,Irq less than or not equal to).BAD MEMORY!I had a spare 256mb chip here.Took out the 512mb chip,put in the 256mb chip clear the cmos booted straight up.Take out the 256 put the 512 back in,no boot.So if you can try some different memory and see how you go!

i have a friend with an uncle that works at HP. His job is repairing computers. When he asked him wht could be wrong with mine, he said that when u take out the cpu and the mother board or the person touching it isnt grounded, then the cpu will get fried. Itll work but stop at a certain point. Could this have happened o me
