Switch to Linux or buy a Mac. Those are the only things that will DEFINITELY fix your problem.

Various Data Found on web
90% of the time this is a driver problem. Does the error screen display a .dll file? I've been having problems on and off related to this and it's due to nv4_disp.dll. Try updating your drivers or even cleaning them and reinstalling if they're already current. Remember to uninstall the driver before you install the updated one, as registry codes will still be malingering, possibly leading to bad function calls, etc. etc.
1. Go to your windows\system32\drivers directory
2. Find the NVMCP.SYS file and right mouse click on it.
3. Click Properties, then Version. Then click on the File Version entry below in the Item Name box.
4. Check the last 4 digits of the number (should read something like 6.13.10.xxxx).
5. Check all the other NVxxxx.sys files while you are there, too.
If driver versions are not the same as the drivers you thought you installed, Windows File Protection may be kicking the driver out, even though it told you it put it in. This, in the past has been a recurring problem.. particularly for developers using OpenAL, so it could be happening to you too.
Your PSU might also be underpowered, so make sure you're getting enough power on the 12V rail(s).
What fixed my problem was bad IRQ assignments through the BIOS. My BIOS was automatically assigning video card IRQs to already used IRQs -- by setting the BIOS to 'plug and play OS' (something I had forgotten to do) the problem went away, as Windows re-assigned the other IRQs, leaving the BIOS setting for the video card IRQ all by its lonesome in the IRQ space!
Usually IRQ Not Less Than Or Equal To is releated to faulty ram. Go to http://www.memtest86.com and download the utility there. Follow the instructions on how to put it on a floppy disk. Run the utility and if it finds any errors, you have bad RAM. (If you have more than one stick of RAM, only test one at a time so you know what one is bad)

You know, telling us you are receiving a BSOD that says "something like" doesn't tell us a darn thing.
To get a good answer, you need to give us as many details about the problem as you can. This includes the EXACT message it gives you when it Blue Screens, what you were doing when it happened, and if you changed anything right before it started happening.
Assuming that the message you got was "IRQ not less or equal", you are having a device conflict or the device is set to use the wrong resources.
Your best bet would be to remove whatever device you installed right before this happened and see if that solves the problem.
If it does, then reinstall the device to see if it starts BSOD'ing again.

Get an expert to look at because it sounds like your arent familiar with computers.
BSOD = Blue Screen Of Death. Common in windows when the operating system halts operation for any of a variety of problems.
