I am getting this error on a new Dell mini Netbook running XP SP2. DirectX, Flash, Java, and Shockwave ARE installed. I am getting this error on Paradise Chat Online, where I play Spades.

The error on the BSoD is attributed to oa012afx.sys, which-- I believe-- is used for my integrated webcam that came with the laptop?

Please help... I have uninstalled, reinstalled, changed display settings, and everything. PCO is in my list of exempted programs under the firewall, and this is not a spyware/malware problem.

I don't know what else to do... Help!

Nope. The only game or anything like that on here is Paradise Chat Online which is a part of the problem. I had to change the resolution to see the lobby chat (problem solved) and at the same time as that problem, when I entered a room, the BSoD came on.

Nah-- this looks like it would happen on any of these Dell Netbooks.
