I got up this morning greeted nicely to my laptop by a Blue Screen of Death. I don't have a digital cam to take a shot but this is the message I got:
A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
Driver_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL ...blah blah blah
****STOP:0*000000D1(and more numbers like that)
I rebooted and it booted up normal, except my Norton tray didn't show up, and everything was quite sluggish. My Avant Browser would just hang and wouldn't come up and I didn't really try anything else.
The only thing I've done in the past couple days was install the new Catalysts 3.10's using that Petje? hack from Driver Heaven. I then completely uninstalled them and installed the new Omega drivers. I've been running Halo just fine ever since.
The peripherials I had in were the power, ethernet cable, USB optical mouse, speakers, and that DVi-CRT converter with my home monitor hooked up. I thought I'd play it safe and post my problem here and use my old computer while I'm home from break. Thanks guys.
EDIT: I thought I'd mention I'm on the 8890 running Windows XP Professional. A 60 gig 5400rpm drive too and a gig of ram.
*I let my laptop cool off while I was working and everythign works dandy in safe mode, however programs still hung at their splashscreen. I tried MSword2003 and it wouldn't load up.
