very annoying computer crashing problem

Hey there. (wasnt sure what section to put this under as i feel the problem could lie in any number of areas be it o.s, random software or hardware errors).

I am running w7 on my pc. abit fatality fp-in9 sli mobo,xfx 8800 gts gpu, 2gb corsair ram, intel quad core (cant remember which, one of the early ones). ive got two hdd's one that is newish that i run my pc on, and one that is used for backing up.

Every so often it will crash (had written down the message that comes up but ive lost it now, ill edit it in as soon as it crashes again). The really weird thing is that when this happens, my hdd boot sequence swaps round so that the backup one is first and so it doesnt start properly. it boots completely fine as soon as i go into bios and change the boot order back to the way it was. I've tried googling this to find similar problems but had little luck... completely confused!

so have you guys got any ideas of what could be causing this? any extra details you need to know, just ask.

Cheers!

Edit: just remembered, the error that comes up is IRQL_not_less_or_equal
 
You may not have a stable bios or may have a possible bad cmos battery as that is what keeps the bios settings from being lost. You shouldn't have to reset the boot order after the pc crashes. Please do this.

any ideas? been crashing and unable to start for the past couple of days. sometimes making it to the bootup screen so i can get into the bios, more often just staying blank.

got it to bios earlier and changed the boot order back, then it went to the repair/restore screen. chose repair which failed, then tried to boot it up later on and all went fine. what the crap is wrong with this computer? should i back up everything onto an external just in case as ill be getting a laptop soon for uni
