driver_irql_not_equal_or_less

I keep getting a blue physical memory dump screen.

It says...

driver_irql_not_equal_or_less

Tech Info:

0x000000D1, (0x063D5400, 0x00000002, 0X00000000, 0xF76ED8F9)

I am using windows XP Home.

I have re-installed my sound card, updated my motherboard and my grapics drivers.

I find this problem usually happens when I am downloading files through things such as bit torrents or IRC.

Please reply to the thread if you can help.

Thanks You

P.s. Keep is simple im a noob :P

The Stop 0xD1 message indicates that the system attempted to access pageable memory using a kernel process IRQL that was too high. Drivers that have used improper addresses typically cause this error.

Loosely translated - you seem to have a corrupt driver. You updated your sound and graphics... and you say this happens when downloading, that would imply your network card or communications device.

There is usually a filename mentioned in a stop error of this sort.... what filename shows up?

i am not sure i didnt record that information i have updated my network card now but if the problem happens again i will record the file and tell you.

Thank You

Ok its happened again :(

I recorded this extra information I dunno if it helps or not...

NDIS.sys - Address F76ED8E9 base at F76D4000, Datestamp 3F7e7ca0

;)

ndis.sys is part of the networking drivers.

Have you been to windows update?
