Hi all,
I just received my video card in the mail so I put together the following system:
3200+
DFI SLI-DR
evga 6800 GT
Enermax noise taker 485W
(temp) generic 1 gig memory
LG DVD ROm drive
Generic floppy
Please don't get worked up about the memory, it is temporary, my dual channel memory was faulty and my favourite computer store lent me some until I get it rma'd. Like I said there was a problem with the RAM so after running into problems because of the memory, I low-level formatted just to remove corrupted software on the hard drive from the equation. I partitioned my drive into two partitions each with XP Pro on it. One drive is meant for gaming, so all it has on it is Windows and the drivers no extra fluff software yet. The gaming drive has nVidia's newest driver and the other drive has a driver from January that came on the install disk.
Both partitions, ocassionally get a flash of a blue screen right as the desktop loads and then reboots before I can even see the blue screen. This only happens very ocassionally, maybe 1 in 10 times (probably much less but I just put it together) and only started after installing SP2 and all of the rest of the updates.
I looked at the mini dump file and it looks to be a device driver problem. Namely classpnp.sys. I researched it a little and saw that this driver was a problem way back when Win 2000 SP2 came out - it was later resolved with a Windows update.
Sorry to be so long-winded, but here is my question, does nayone know of a conflict between SP2 and my hardware or other drivers? Has anyone else experienced a problem with classpnp.sys or SP2? I really don't want to format and intall XP without SP2, although I know I will end up doing that I'm sure. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks.
