Minidump Crashes, Need Help Please...

[Draetor24]

I've been receiving this Minidump crashes for a couple months now, sometimes I get 1 a week, sometimes a couple in a day, as it's very random. I have since formatted entire HD with low-level formatting, and installed everything clean including all up to date drivers, yet I'm still getting these errors. I will post the errors and add 4 dump files I have accumulated since the reinstall.

Stop Error 1 - Source: System Error - Event 1003 (Cat: 102)

Error code 10000050, parameter1 f7b4ee73, parameter2 00000001, parameter3 87c62ea8, parameter4 00000000.
Stop Error 2 - Source: System Error - Event 1003 (Cat: 102)

Error code 000000e7, parameter1 00000001, parameter2 00000000, parameter3 00000002, parameter4 00000000.

This 2nd stop error is the only one I was receiving before the reinstall.

Save Dump 1 - Event 1001 -

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x000000e7 (0x00000001, 0x00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000). A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini062706-01.dmp.

Save Dump 2 - Event 1001 -

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x1000008e (0xc0000005, 0x87a1d40a, 0xa29f6408, 0x00000000). A dump was saved in: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini062906-01.dmp.

My drivers are up to date, Windows XP is up to date, everything in the O/S environment is clean. I ran Memtest86 over night twice, and there were 0 errors. I ran Prime95 overnight and there were 0 errors.

My specs are:

Windows XP Pro SP2
Asus A8R32-MVP Deluxe
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
OCZ EL Gold GX XTC PC4000 2GB CL3-4-3-8
ATI Radeon X1900XT 512MB
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS

Thanks for all the help!

Just had another 2 in one day, after a long streak of a couple weeks prior. It seems the frequency of these resets are increasing.

I really am clueless as to what could be happening. I've checked into both hardware and software faults. I do not know how to diagnose dump files though, so hoping someone can lend a hand, please.

Bump please. Still looking for some help.

 

[altheman]

Two crashes are caused by ha20x2k.sys, which is part of Creative's sound drivers, and two would not open.

First, make sure you are using the latest drivers, and also stress test your ram for errors using Memtest, letting it give at least 7 passes.

Make sure your PSU can supply enough power to all the components of your system. Check using this PSU Calculator.

 

[Draetor24]

I'm using the X-Fi Fatality card, and have the latest drivers downloaded from their update site. I always use the latest drivers.

When you say 7 passes on the memtest, what exactly does that mean? I've tested it overnight for 9hours and get no errors.

My PSU is an Enermax Liberty 620W, I'll check out that utility though.

Thanks.

 

[altheman]

If you use the latest drivers, get passes on your RAM, and have a good PSU, the only problem I can think of is hardware related. Maybe the sound card is dodgy, but I'm not really sure. Try some suggestions here: https://www.techspot.com/vb/topic51365.html.

 

[Draetor24]

Ok, my PSU seems to be on spot in regards to the voltage ratings and how much power. I'm using supposedly 475W out of the 620W available according to Everest.

I downloaded another Creative Soundblaster driver update a couple days ago which was just recently released. Until then I've had the latest, but we'll see if these do anything.

I've also swapped the sound card from PCI2 to PCI3 ion my mobo. I've heard people with the specific ha20x2k.sys driver problem doing this to solve the problem. The one thing I noticed by switching the PCI slot was the sound card is now issigned to IRQ19 instead of IRQ18, IRQ18 has my video card on it.

My RAM seems to be pasing all the memtests I'm throwing at it overnight with 0 errors.

No crashes since the soundcard driver update and PCI slot swap. I'll let you know if I get one. They are very random, and I've gone weeks without getting one until I get 2 in one day sometimes, so I'll just have to wait and see.

 

[altheman]

Im not sure how IRQ allocation works, but I don't think its good when two pieces of hardware use the same address.

 

[Draetor24]

True, that used to be the case, but with IRQ sharing now in plug and play O/S's, the same IRQ gets used for multiple devices, in this case. It should never affect the hardware, and it never has for me, but in this case there might have been a compatibility issue in Creative's product not allowing it to function with other specific hardware using the same resources. This is why I swapped it just to be sure.
