Blue Screen Of Death

I'm still not even sure why I'm getting this, but it's only when my BBS is up, and someone comes in, making a character.



DRIVER_IRQL_IS_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL



That's the blue screen message. Found a mb on yahoo that said it has to do with the Nic card. Updated driver, and changed things as they said. Have to see if it happens again. This is real frustrating.. Getting a BSOD is no good when you try to run a bbs. :D



Anyone else who's gotten this problem, please reply.. I need all the help I can get.

Nope.. XP Pro. I've gotten the same bsod a few times now. Not sure what's causing it, but it's definitely WG/MMUD.

Thats actually a critical error now that i remember it. Does it reboot shortly after or hang?

It's a blue screen of death, so the system hangs. I have it set so it doesn't reboot after BS's. I have it that way so I can see the error. :D



Do you have AIM Invis? Please IM me if you do.

Unknown Error 14

Bug Check 0xD1: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

The DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL bug check has a value of 0x000000D1.

This

indicates that the system attempted to access pageable memory at a

process

IRQL that was too high.



Parameters

The following parameters are displayed on the blue screen.



Parameter Description

1 Memory referenced

2 IRQL at time of reference

3 0: Read

1: Write



4 Address that referenced memory





Cause

A driver tried to access an address that is pageable (or that is

completely

invalid) while the IRQL was too high.



This bug check is usually caused by drivers that have used improper

addresses.



Resolving the Problem

To begin debugging, use a kernel debugger to get a stack trace.

do you have a debugger, and thats not a pc of toilet paper, Ill see if i can find one for d/l on the net, have you installed any new memory or any new hardware or drivers for existing hardware recently?

Nope. My hardware's been unchanged since August 2002. The only thing that's different software wise is NMR, WG, and new device drivers for my NIC, since the same time.



No debugger, since I have no idea how to use one, either.
