I recently bought a new NF7 with a 2800 athlon and it freezes and crashes with blue screen at any time, it is saying its a device driver problem but i dont know what.

i have a tv card, a g force 3 and a sound blaster audigy which i have installed old and new drivers numerous times but still no joy.

There was one time when it blue screened it said "irq less than equal" i have no clue what that means so if anybody has any soloution i will be very grateful.

Thanks in advance

Boney

I had a similar problem where WinXP installation would fail with a different, seemingly random problem everytime. It turned out to be a bad memory module. I had 3 modules, and I tried the install with one module installed, one at a time until I found the guilty party.

If the error messages are random, try changing your ram in a similar fashion.

Buying it, borrowing it, warranty it,
whatever it takes to get the bad RAM out and good RAM in.

Not all your RAM, but just the bad RAM.

Specifically, I mean taking out all the ram except for one module. Then, see if the system is stable. If so, add back in the modules you took out until the system becomes unstable. Then, you'll know which RAM module is causing the problem.

I'm not sure if "module" is the popular term or not. I'm talking about individual sticks of memory. For example, my machine has a total of 512MB of RAM. I have a 128MB module, another 128MB module, and a 256MB module. 3 modules or "sticks" of RAM.
