Here's how to correct your problem. Ready? Here we go:
- Power off the computer.
- Unplug the computer from the wall.
- Remove all external cables (video, etc.).
- Disconnect the keyboard, mouse, and speakers if you have them.
- Put all of the hardware you've just disconnected in a box.
- Set the box of hardware, the CPU, and the monitor at the curb in front of your house.
- In a few days, the trash collection men will come and take your problem away.
There now, isn't that better?

READ THE DAMN KNOWLEDGEBASE ARTICLE! :mad: :mad: :mad: "Faulty Hardware" is not the same as "Faulty Driver".

Heya, It is possible that you have faulty hardware that only faults under specific conditions. Windows drivers are not a good way of diagnosing hardware problems. Simplest solution: 1. Remove all non-essential hardware (i.e. leaving CPU, RAM, MOBO, Boot HDD) 2. Run an intensive test program or similar for 12 to 24 hours on the hardware. If the exception occurs, blank the boot disk; install a fresh clean copy and try again. If the exception occurs again, one of the above is faulty. Now follow a replace and retest on the above items. 3. Should you get this far... Replace the cards, etc. in the PC one-at-a-time. It is important that you do this in steps. Again, test the PC for 12 to 24 hours with a burn-in application. If a BSOD / exception occurs then install a fresh copy of the OS and the latest drivers. If you are using the latest drivers already; go back a release. 4. If everything works fine - your system is OK. NEVER say that there are no faulty drivers or hardware UNLESS you can prove (preferably using Z or some other tool) that they are correct! There may be bugs in hardware / software that are benign until a specific combination of hardware and software occurs.
