Blue Screen of Death - Driver IRQL Not Less or Equal - Windows 10/8.1/8/7/Vista/XP

What is IRQL?

"An Interrupt Request Level (IRQL) is the priority given to any interrupt request generated by computer hardware. If for instance, a hard disk drive generates an interrupt request signal, and another device, such as a USB printer, generates an interrupt request signal, the two interrupts cannot be serviced simultaneously. The IRQL is used to determine which one is serviced first. In this example, a hard disk interrupt requires a higher priority than a printer interrupt", Wikipedia states.
