Every now and then I get these crashes saying IRQ Not Equal and the nvstor32.sys file shows up in the text. I have no conflicts showing up in Device Manager. What does this mean or what is causing this?

Have you recently installed different Nvidia drivers or some software that connects 
over a network such as a game, quicken, outlook, or vision studio? This is by no 
means a complete list, but an example of the types of software that do connect via 
the internet or network.

I did have the same problem. Go to Nvidia's web site and download the latest core drivers. (Drivers for storage). This cleared up the nvstor32.sys. problem. Geolew

Well yes I did load some what I thought was correct Nvidia drivers for network etc. Been thinking maybe I should uninstall them now tho.

If they were not a necessary update I would fall back to the old ones. This is a 
VERY old problem in windows and usually is a result of either the Drivers or more 
often networking games. MS has numerous pages in their KB files.
