I had the blue screen of death come up for a second time in th epast two days, what's wrong?
This is what it said: "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"
it also said ***Stop: 0x0000000D1 (0x00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000)

*** afd.sys - address EADD927FE, base at AAD850000, datestamp: 41107eb5

and when windows restarted the microsoft error report thing came up and this is what it contains:
Error signature:
BCCode : d1 BCP1 : 00000000 BCP2 : 00000002 BCP3 : 00000000
BCP4 : AAD927FC OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 2_0 Product : 256_1

Please help...

Hi there got this from: Windows XP Blue Screen of Death STOP Codes

Stop 0x000000D1 or DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

The Stop 0xD1 messages indicates that the system attempted to access pageable memory using a kernel process IRQL that was too high. Drivers that have used improper addresses typically cause this error.

Possible Resolutions:

• Stop 0xD1 messages can occur after installing faulty drivers or system services. If a driver is listed by name, disable, remove, or roll back that driver to confirm that this resolves the error. If so, contact the manufacturer about a possible update. Using updated software is especially important for backup programs, multimedia applications, antivirus scanners, DVD playback, and CD mastering tools.

So I think what you should do here is try uninstalling all drivers or software that you have loaded in the past two days and re-loading it.

Let me know how things go. Also when re-installing drivers make sure you have up to date drivers that correspond with the hardware. Cool

I haven't installed any drivers in the past two days, the only thing I inestalled was a new firewall.

[Spike]

Wuz it PC-Cillin by any chance????

[Rob06]

No, it's sunbelt keiro personal firewall.

[Spike]

Try unistall the firewall and let me know if the problem persists. I installed Pc-cillin firewall last time and it was doing the same thing. The only way i got the problem fixed was by formatting my computer. But i was force to format for other reasons. There are alternitive firewalls.

But before we start think of other firewalls uninstall your current firewall and then let me know if you carry on having the problem.

Cool
