Again ...

Did you max your onboard-graphic memory?
Did you check AGP aperture?
Did you test your RAM?

Just yes or no.

how to max the graphic memory?
my AGP aperture is 64MB(default) but i'm using integrated graphic, does it even affect?
i do not have a floppy drive to test the RAM

BIOS -> PCI/Plug and Play Setup page -> Share Memory Size -> max it.
The lower the graphic memory, the higher you'd have to set AGP aperture.
For example, if 64MB is your max share size, set AGP aperture to 128MB, if max is 32MB, set it to 256MB.

if anybody wants the floppy maker for the OCZ Memtest 86+ PM me

The irql-less-or-equal problem is caused by mainly faulty memory stick first. Go and get Memtest 86+, then test it stick by stick.

Check whether the processor is overheating or not too.

i set the graphic card acceleration to none instead of the default full and nothing happens except that the videos is jerky during playback and i cant switch from dual sound to one sound.

TBH, I don't think it has anything to do with your graphics card. There's no point disabling its acceleration features.

Update the audio driver and check your memory modules using Memtest86.
