OK everyone thinking caps on. I am currently posting this message from Vista
in "safe mode".
I am getting the dreaded blue screen of death from windows in "normal" mode.
I am getting an error message which reads
"Stop 0x000000EA THREAD STUCK IN DEVICE DRIVER (Q293078)"
As anyone had this come up as anyone recovered from this error?
I have no idea which device driver it's on about as I cannot get into
Windows to find out

This issue might occur if the display driver is caught in an infinite loop
while it waits for the video hardware to become idle. This issue typically
indicates a problem with the video hardware or that the display driver
cannot program the hardware correctly.

Try updating your display drivers from your hardware manufacturers website -
http://www.nvidia.com, http://ati.amd.com, http://www.intel.com, etc.

For more information about this error, please see
