Ok I'm about 3seconds from beating the hell out of my computer.
Ok about 2-3 days ago I received a bunch of blue screen of death errors in windows 2000 Pro. A few where ntkrnl.exe errors, a few where IRQ errors. So I figured i would reinstalled windows 2000 Pro, but while I did that I would replace the motherboard, cpu, ram, floppy drive, and add a new hard drive.
I'm now running:
Biostar M7VIT Pro
AMD Athlong XP 2200
(3) 512MB DDR PC-2700
40GB Maxtor 7200rpm ide hard drive.
I then formatted the HD to use the entire disk space with the NTFS file system. I then installed windows 2000 pro, and before anything else installed the NIC drivers, restarted, then started to run all of the windows updates. I am now completely updated execpt for windows media player 9.0.
I've installed a couple of programs and between then and now I have been getting this blue screen error:
Driver_IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal
It then does a physcial memory dump where I have no option other then to restart the computer. I thought it might be the chipset drivers, so I downloaded the new VIA 4in1 Hyper driver and ran it, I'm still getting the error. Sometimes I can use the computer for a few hours, sometimes its only 30mins before the error pop-up.
Also I have checked the Event Log and I have about 3-4 pages of this same exact warning - " An error was detected on device \Device\CdRom1 during a paging operation. "
There are also a few error's in the event logger "RSM cannot manage library PhysicalDrive2. It encountered an unspecified error. This can be caused by a number of problems including, but not limited to, database corruption, failure communicating with the library, or insufficient system resources. "
Can anyone explain why I keep getting the "Driver_IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal" blue screen of death error with the physcial memory dump?
----------------------------------
Someone else where recommened
this link to me, but I dont see how anything applies to me. The error doesn't happen when I shut down, start up or save something to a floppy disk. It's usually when I'm surfing the internet or chatting on AIM does it give me that error.
What I dont understand is that I've been using Win2k for over a year with all the same software and drivers then suddenly one day Windows is messing up. I replace pretty much the entire system and do a clean install and that still doesn't fix it.
----------------------------------
My current system setup is as follows if this means anything to anyone:
Biostar M7VIT Pro
AMD Athlong XP 2200
(3) 512MB DDR PC-2700
40GB Maxtor 7200rpm ide hard drive
60GB IBM 7200rom ide hard drive
LiteON 48x CD-RW
LiteON 16x DVD-ROM
Sound Blaster 5.1 Platinum with LiveDrive
3-port firewire
Hercules GeForce3
Windows 2000 Pro with SP3
IE6 with SP1
-------------------------------------
Any ideas guys?
