BSOD - Driver IRQL Not Less or Equal

hobovision · Jan 26, 2009

about a week ago i intalled a brand new EVGA 9800 GT, and last night while trying to put my computer to sleep, i got this error:

Driver IRQL not less or equal

*** STOP: 0x000000D1 (0x8e3fa000.0x00000002.0x00000000.0x90915cc6)

what does this mean and how do i fix it? im guessing it has something to do with my graphics card because thats the only new hardware, but my computer runs fine, until i hit the sleep button
