I been getting some BSOD's in the past maybe couple months but i'm not getting any stop codes just the numbers, normally it comes when watching videos usually from you tube.

I have recently updated my computer by changing the motherboard, cpu and ram and was having sound issues so i also changed my hard drive and re=installed windows XP.

The problem had started with my old system probably a few months ago but didn't happen all the time, It seems to be happening a lot more frequent now.

All my drivers are up to date.

I am running windows XP home edition, amd phenom II x2 560 black edition (extra cores unlocked), 4gbs of ram, 250 gb hard drive

This is the driver version it is showing:

NVIDIA Windows XP Display driver, Version 280.26

Can you double check the driver and post the version you updated to please.

[panthertooth]

Here is a jpeg of my update and version from nvidia control panel

Attached Thumbnails

• 

[rshaffer61]

OK it may be a corrupted driver then. Can you try to rollback the driver and see if it works.

[panthertooth]

Will do, it don't crash all the time so i will have to wait and post if and when it does it again

[panthertooth]

I don't have any roll back files since this is a fresh install of windows , should i go to the site and get a previous version ??

[rshaffer61]

Go to Device Manager, then right click on the video card.
One of the options should be to rollback the driver.
If not then try to update it then.

[panthertooth]

There is no backed up files to rollback to and i have the latest driver so updating does nothing

[rshaffer61]

So by default when you formatted and installed XP it loaded the newest driver?

[panthertooth]

Not sure to tell you the truth, but i did download the newest driver when i formatted

[panthertooth]

Not sure where to post this and im sure you will reply to it anyway so i will just ask you here, where do i find the driver for IDE ATA/ATAPI controller, i have driver finder and it is showing that they are out of date but i can't update using the program unless i but it and i'm not sure where to find the drivers

[rshaffer61]

That would depend on the motherboard or the branded system.
First place to check is the manufacture's website as that is where all the drivers should be. If no luck there then download DriverMax and have it scan your system. It will open their website with all the out of date drivers you can update. With the free version you can update only 2 drivers per day so if you have a lot of them it will take a few days to get everything updated. I have been using it for about 4 months now and like it better then any other utility out there for keeping my drivers up to date.

[panthertooth]

Wow i have ran 3 different programs for finding driver updates, driver finder said i had two that needed updating, driver genius said i had 5 to update and driver max says there is 11, why is it that there is such a big discrepancy between them ?
