hi, im having some really annoying problems with my computer.
first of all, blue screen of death messages, its like a pick and mix. new ones each time, lol.
the most common ones are, however;
driver_irql_less_or_not_equal
*.sys messages (varying from win32k.sys to tcpip.sys)
bad_pool_caller
there is probably many more, since i cant remember them all.
another problem, is that my computer sometimes makes a tractor noise, like the sound of a tractor starting up (hard to belive) lol
i have tried switching around my pci cards in my mb. i have only one free pci slot atm though. (the pci slot beside the agp slot is free)
my current system specs are:
2ghz athlon xp
asus a7x8x mboard
windows xp w/ sp1
1gb pc2700 ddr ram
120gb 7200 rpm and 250gb 7200 rpm drives
4x dvd+-rw
48x cdrw
billion pci isdn modem
technotrends skystar dvb-s video capture card
hauppage wintv nova-t dvb-t video capture card
creative soundlabs soundcard
i have had the problem with my computer restarting itself ever since i first built it up, just over 1 year ago. however the problem has gotten gradually worse up-until now.
so, if anyone has any suggestions on how i can sort out these problems it would be greatly appreciated =)
thanks
