Hi Can someone make sense of this Mini Dump as WinXP keeps crashing and I am not sure what is causing it. IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (a) An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high. This is usually caused by drivers using improper addresses. If a kernel debugger is available get the stack backtrace. Arguments: Arg1: 00000028, memory referenced Arg2: 00000002, IRQL Arg3: 00000000, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation Arg4: 80515621, address which referenced memory Debugging Details: ------------------ READ_ADDRESS: 00000028 CURRENT_IRQL: 2 FAULTING_IP: nt!PopProcessorIdle+a7 80515621 8b4e28 mov ecx,dword ptr [esi+28h] CUSTOMER_CRASH_COUNT: 4 DEFAULT_BUCKET_ID: COMMON_SYSTEM_FAULT BUGCHECK_STR: 0xA PROCESS_NAME: Idle LAST_CONTROL_TRANSFER: from 804dbb37 to 80515621 STACK_TEXT: 805501d0 804dbb37 00000000 0000000e 00000000 nt!PopProcessorIdle+0xa7 805501d4 00000000 0000000e 00000000 00000000 nt!KiIdleLoop+0x10 STACK_COMMAND: kb FOLLOWUP_IP: nt!PopProcessorIdle+a7 80515621 8b4e28 mov ecx,dword ptr [esi+28h] SYMBOL_STACK_INDEX: 0 SYMBOL_NAME: nt!PopProcessorIdle+a7 FOLLOWUP_NAME: MachineOwner MODULE_NAME: nt IMAGE_NAME: ntoskrnl.exe DEBUG_FLR_IMAGE_TIMESTAMP: 42250ff9 FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: 0xA_nt!PopProcessorIdle+a7 BUCKET_ID: 0xA_nt!PopProcessorIdle+a7 Followup: MachineOwner --------- eax=00000000 ebx=ffdffc70 ecx=ffdffc70 edx=0000000d esi=00000000 edi=823b6498 eip=80515621 esp=805501bc ebp=805501d0 iopl=0 nv up ei pl zr na pe nc cs=0008 ss=0010 ds=0023 es=0023 fs=0030 gs=0000 efl=00010246 nt!PopProcessorIdle+0xa7: 80515621 8b4e28 mov ecx,dword ptr [esi+28h] ds:0023:00000028=????????

Am I reading the dump wrong? Thanks
Anyone have any idea's? Gonna post under OS as I think I posted in the wrong place. http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic72269.html Thanks
