BLUESCREEN OF DEATH caused by some drivers (S.O.S)

[maxpayne]

I resently installed microsoft windows XP Service Pack 2 on my PC and eversince its been constnly crashing and displaying "THE BLUESCREEN". When i reported the error to microsoft the analyser said it was a driver error.The Blue screen display's "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" at the top and" *** STOP: 0x0000000A (0x99052FF4, 0x00000000, 0x804E65DE)" at the bottum.
Please if anyone can assist me it would be greatly appriciated.

Doesn't it say what driver anywhere? Check the debug information, if possible.

It is not uncommon for certain drivers to be nasty when presented with sp2. I have seen audigy drivers do this and there is new drivers on their site that address these issues for some models. The last one that did this for me was an LS. Try reinstalling all your drivers after uninstalling them first. If that doesnt work, reinstall windows, then sp2, then go from there.
Full system specs would help.

Yes I am having that same exact problem however be4 I get the BSOD it sounds like my hard drive shuts off or something does i'm not sure what it is. And if i don't get a BSOD my comp will just freeze and then when it recovers i will get an error report saying one of my drivers are causing the error. I have no idea what is going on this just started to happen to me recently My system specs are Processor: amd 3700
Motherboard: msi k8n neo4
Memory: 1.5 gb Corsair
Harddrive: 160 gb SATA western digital
O/S: windows xp pro sp 2

Hi everyone, first post

I used to get the BSOD whenever I ran a 3D app like a game. Sometimes it would take 2 hours, or just 2 minutes, but it would always happen. I tried upgrading parts and getting new drivers but nothing worked. Until . . .

I was reading one of the guides on this website and it recommended a BIOS flash as a 'tweak'. So I did it, and all my problems went away. I haven't seen the BSOD ever since.

All you have to do is go to the MB manufacturers website and they should have specific instructions for BIOS flashing. It might not be the solution for you, but I think it's worth a shot.

My system specs:
Gigabyte GA-8SIML
P4 1.7GHz
Asus Radeon 9550
512MB RAM (Hynix)
Maxtor 40GB HD
XP pro - sp2

[maxpayne]

i already reinstalled all my drivers and updated most of them but the rest have no updates cuz i already have the latest. I reinstall the OS twice. And the version i have already has SP2 incorporated in it. I ahave not a cle wats causing the problem but some extensive research showed tha it is really a known SP2 personal issue. Any ways i already decided to go back to SP1 and ever since, i have not had an error at all.

Can you provide me more information on this matter?
