Windows XP crashes!!!
« on: September 18, 2001, 10:13:38 AM »
OK, here is my setup:

Windows XP RC2
Athlon T-Bird 1.4Ghz
1.0GB PC133 RAM
ECS K7VZA (Intergrated Audio...which sucks!!!)
VIA KT133A (I think...)
ATI RAGE 128
3COM NIC
Seagate 40 GB (2 partitions - C:WixXP & D:mp3 and video)
Sony CD-RW 12x8x32x
Pine 52x CD-ROM (Sounds like a fighter jets afterburners are at full blast!!!)

Now here is the problem:

When ever I try to record a CD from either CD-ROM/RW to the harddrive or transfer a large amount of files (mp3\'s from previous harddrive) my PC BSOD\'s with serveral kinds of errors some are IRQ related others are PageFile.sys related.  But it only happens when I transfer/record files to the harddrive.  I tried installing the new 4 in 1 V1.33 drivers, but that didn\'t help!!!  Any ideas?  

This is my first time dealing with AMD/VIA and I\'m not liking it at all!!!!

brew me a cup. we\'re here for the long haul
