the blue screen shows
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

The error message says software has executed incorrectly and was
detected by hardware. The message has additional information (ie such
as the file name of software that failed). Trace the problem to
either hardware or software. Suspects are either a software driver
(rarely) or is hardware such as defective power system or memory
circuits.

Verify voltages on the red, orange, yellow, and purple wires with a
3.5 digit multimeter when the system is multitasking to all
peripherals simultaneously. However this suspect is less likely if
your error message is always to one location or in a software driver.

Problem more likely can be found with a good diagnostic such as the
one provided for free by better computer manufacturers (that also
tests the NIC), or by a third party such as Memtst64. Execute this
diagnostic once. Then repeat it with memory heated with a hairdryer
on highest heat settings. Intermittent memory is often found
conclusively by a diagnostic when memory is happy and hot. So hot as
to be uncomfortable to touch is an ideal testing temperatures.

Meanwhile, a complete message with software driver and numbers may
have resulted in a better answer. Also look for an Intel diagnostic
for their NIC chip. That might provide useful information if the above
tests do not identify a failure. IRQ 3 is not relevant.
