Hi everyone

May 12th is the day my machine began to get these random
but frequent stop 0x0000001e kmode exception not handled
blue screen reboots. I can be doing nothing and all of a
sudden bluescreen, and then i look at the event viewer and
it records the save dump incident, but with different
parameters.

thinking back to around the dreaded 12th of may, i
installed the latest Nvidia video card drivers, I
installed another 160GB hard drive which lead to the death
of my 4yr old 300W PSU, i replaced it with a bigger one
and realized it still was sucking all the power because my
machine was bogging like crazy, so i replace that with an
even bigger PSU and the bogging has went away a bit but
it's still there, and between all of this i decided to
install SP4 finally cause i figured their might be a fix
for this little problem i'm having. But you know the
problem is still there. Now my next task is to roll back
the nvidia driver to the old one when my machine was
stable.
back to the question, does anyone have any ideas for me on
this issue?

one last thing, it also seems to do this reboot when my
norton antivirus is scanning, and when nortons speed disk
is beginning to do it's thing. humm?

thanks
 
Hi everyone

well i figured this one out, and yes it was what i
suspected, the new Nvidia Drivers for win2kpro are bug
ridden, and i suggest you do not install them (Version:
56.72) the last stable version is (Version: 45.23) this
version works fine.

hope this can help someone else who has installed those
drivers and has a similar problem.
