    I just reformatted my computer to windows xp pro x64 and replaced the graphics card. Now, I've been getting stop error codes (3 0x0000000A and 1 0x0000003B). I'll try to attach the minidump files. The error codes are occurring at random times (it seems) well after startup. They are not predictable. Hopefully someone will know how to address the issue.

    Specs:

    AMD Athlon 64X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+
    2.21 GHz
    4.00 GB RAM (G-Skill)
    Windows XP pro x64 Service Pack 2
    ABIT AN8-32X-1 Mobo
    Nvidia Geforce 9400GT 1GB
    Rosewill 450W (or 480, can't remember) PSU

    This sounds generic, but make sure you get the latest drivers for your graphics card. Make SURE they're x64. The definition of x0A is IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, and is typically caused by a bad driver or software.
