BSoD Mini Dump
Hi all! First post here at the forums but have been a visitor for a while. I've built my first computer a little over 2 months ago. When I play games I sometimes get a flicker of the Blue Screen or just a plain blue screen. This time however, while playing HL2
M, it wouldn't go away and it had the error: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. And then some stuff about nv4_mini.sys.I decoded a dump but it said it didn't have the right symbols so I was hoping somebody might point me in the right direction. |

That error is an 0xD1 and they are caused by faulty drivers of buggy software. The driver you listed is nv4_mini.sys which is from Nvidia. Try updating you video card drivers and let us know if that helped.

Thanks for the quick reply. Well I just had another one with the same message before I installed the new driver for my 8800 GT. But, it seems to happen at random so if i do get another one I'll be sure to post back, or if you need any more info.

Ok, sorry for the bump. I received 2 more BSoDs with one having no nvidia related dll or file show up and the second while playing Team Fortress 2 and it mentioned a nv4_disp.dll in the error. I'm assuming that this a Nvidia related file. I updated my drivers since Route 44 last told me to update. So any suggestions?
