i keep recieving this blue screen on my windows vista computer its
a 32bit Home.Primium. N-Vidia 5500 Fx Card.
the error message says;
IRQL_NOT_LESS_EQUAL
Techinical Info:
**Stop: 0x0000000A (0X0405006, 0x0000001B, 0x00000000, 0x81c682EE)
i know its a driver Error but i dont know whats causing it. if anyone could
tell me where to find error info i would be happy.
 
Hi,

The information is likely contained in the minidump file created when the
stop error occurs. To decipher it requires the use of debugging tools. If
you'd like to send the most recent dump file from C:\Windows\minidump to me,
I'd be happy to look at it for you. Use a subject line of 'per req' and the
email address used here to get past filters.

Incidentally, IIRC, that video card isn't supported by any of Nvidia's
graphic driver updates and use of it is restricted to the native WDDM
drivers that come with Vista. If you have updated the display adapter
drivers, you may want to first try reverting (rolling back) to originally
installed ones.

I got the same problem with alcohol 120 as I had an old version, my solution
was to put vista disk in and boot to cd and it gave me the option of restore
point before I installed alcohol and it works great now. some older
software just doesn't work with vista.

try finding out at which point you got blue screen and what software you may
have installed and restore before that.##hope this helps
