Alienware 17 R3 BSOD
So I got this alienware 17 laptop about 2 days ago, when I first got it I downloaded Fallout 4, chrome, winrar, and Smite..
So I used the computer for like 2 and a half days without shutting down, but today when I shut it down and came back later it would start normally and on the login screen it would crash and give me the BSOD with the error: "IRQL_NOT_EQUAL_OR_LESS" and every time it restarted it would happen again.
Is there any way to fix this ? or should I just return it to Best Buy

Hi,
Are you able to boot into Safe Mode? Try running an ePSA/Diagnostic test on the system to check the main hardware components, click here to view a Dell article that explains how to run this test. Let us know if you receive any errors.
