B S O D (Blue Screen Of Death)
If you don't want to read this somewhat long post, here's a question you can
answer (but does not solve the answer which is in the rest of the post): Can you provide me with a document or website or something that has a lookup table, so I can reference the hexidecimal numbers in the STOP message on a BSOD screen to an actual error message in english? If you are willing to help me with my problem: Yes, I'm reposting this message. I've isolated the problem, I think, but I need verification (or other ideas). I've been getting this BSOD message for months (granted, only about once a month, but I'm getting it nonetheless): *** STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0x80515F86, 0xF9E84C0C, 0xF9E8490C) No error message (like IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL) accompanies the message. Recommendation says to check hardware, hardware drivers, and software drivers (like firewalls, etc.). I had been getting this message whenever my computer goes into automatic standby (after 15 minutes) when I overclocked my system from 2.4GHz to 2.95GHz. If I told it to go to standby (start-turn off-standby) it would turn on fine, but automatic standby didn't work as well. I have now de-overclocked the system (all settings back to normal) and I'm still getting this problem. As I had overclocked it the second day I got my motherboard, I don't know if overclocking caused the problem or if it had existed prior to overclocking. I believe I may have isolated the problem. I have been noticing lately that after an automatic standby, sometimes my system will turn on but the monitor will not turn on (the LED remains yellow, indicating no signal). I would then have to restart my computer (reset button) to get it to work again. Therefore, I believe that the video card or its driver may be causing the problem. Do you agree? I tried to enter the STOP message into the knowledge base (support.microsoft.com) to see if they had my error message (or something vaguely similar). While there are many STOP 0x0000007E messages, none of them apply to me or apply enough to me for me to care. I checked any that said STOP 0x0000007E and talked about standby, video cards, or computers which stop responding. I did not check any which applied to a specific computer (like ones that said "Dell XPS B533R Computer Stops Responding....) or ones that didn't apply to Windows XP. Any other ideas on what to search? I believe that there's a website that actually gives you like a lookup table to find out what the error really meant, but I couldn't find it. Finally, I went to Windows Update (windowsupdate.microsoft.com) to see if I could pull up a new device driver. There was one, for my video card (coincidence?). I installed it, but I'll have to wait until the next time my computer goes into standby to find out if it worked. Does anyone know actually what that video card driver fixed? Thanks for any help. System specs follow: Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-8SQ800 CPU: 2.4GHz Pentium 4 Northwood (533MHz FSB) Memory: 1x256MB Corsair High-Performance DDR400* Primary Master: Maxtor 80GB 7200RPM 8MB Cache ATA/133 Primary Slave: None Secondary Master: Generic 56x Max CD-ROM Secondary Slave: None Floppy Drive: Generic 1.44MB 3.5" Floppy LPT1: HP Deskjet 722C** COM1: Palm Hotsync Cradle COM2: None AC'97: Speakers Not Attached PS/2 Keyboard: HP Something-or-other :-) PS/2 Mouse: Microsoft Optical WheelMouse AGP 8x Port: Empty?

I plan to take advantage of this soon... ? Attached to the sound card is a set of Creative Inspire 4.1 speakers. Not like this is important, just thought I'd say it.

Hi,
This is either a device driver or possibly h/w problem. Firstly, NVidia cards won't 'burn'. Apparently the cards that burn are the wrong voltage AGP's in the wrong m/b's - this comment is for Jim Davis. If you put any AGP1/2 card in an AGP8 slot you will apparently get big problems regardless of make, so Jim, before you burn your m/b, please read up about AGP voltages - this is nothing to do with NVidia. When IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL occurs, you generally will see the device driver name listed. Most often, the one that is visible on screen is the one that caused the problem - but then I suppose you have to know the name of the device driver... NVidia tends to start with nv....sys Since it is your display that does not come back on - this is another indicator of the problem. You have quite a bit of h/w installed, but it will help isolate the problem by removing all extra h/w if you can. Also configure your standby settings and screen saver to much shorter intervals to do some conclusive testing. Check in particular the following PCI1: BFG Asylum 64MB DDR333 (NVidia GeForce4 MX440-SE) PCI2: Creative SoundBlaster PCI512? PCI3: Linksys Instant PCI Wireless Network Card (WMP11?) if you can remove the PCI2 & 3 devices while checking out the graphics drivers this will help isolate things. GeForce4 is a good chipset, so if the problem is with the card's drivers, it should be easily fixed. So 0) take a backup 1) go to the graphics h/w vendors site for updated drivers. Look for WHQL certified drivers. If you get no joy there, go to NVidia. 2) remove extra devices if you are willing, 3) deinstall all extraneous drivers - if there is a deinstall program - if you are willing. 4) amend screen saver and power config to much shorter intervals for quick simulation runs 5) configure the new graphics drivers. 6) do standby simulations...... 7) if you get problems again, post to this news group more details from your BSOD screen. You could post it to one of the MS Windows news groups as well if you wished. best of luck. - Tim P4 2.8 GHz running at 50 MHz! You think you have problems? try 4 hours to install XP - took 20 mins first time! "MiniDisc_2k2" wrote in message news:b5eQa.3740$zd4.1987@lakeread02...

Oh I have a Radeon 9200, I won't burn. But, my computer store person told me that a Ti4200 would burn on this MB. Interesting then that if I put my old Gforce which was AGP2 in this it would burn?
