Anyone ever Get This Problem?

Ever since I've had my AW I seem to get this message a lot.
First a blue screen pops up and it says this
Run the driver verifier against any new (or suspect) drivers. If that doesn't reveal the corrupting driver, try enabling special pool. Both of these features are inteeded to catch the corruption at an eariler point when the offending driver can be indentified.
The it goes on to say start up with safe mode and other things
then at the bottom it says this
Tech Info
Stop: 0x000000c5
Beginning dump of physical memory
physical Dump complete


Does anyone know how to fix this?
The only non approved microsoft approved driver is the new omega driver.

Well I just got my computer back from the depot yesterday and it came with the AW drivers and I still got that error, then I put the omega driver eariler today, so I don't think it's that.
Thanks anyways

It might be the RAM. If you have 2 sticks of RAM, try taking one out, and see if u get the same error. Then repeat the process for the other stick. Also, search on www.google.com for RAM diagnostic utilities just in case there might be a problem with both sticks. Sorry I dunt kno a site off the top of my head. Best of luck to you...

Do you have any non-AW installed parts plugged in... wireless PCMCIA card perhaps (Linksys has known issues and fixes)?
You might want to search thru AW's forums also, there are a lot of things to try for those people that are getting BSOD's (MS - Blue Screens of Death)
Have you done a fresh install of the OS? That seems to clear up many problems people have with the 'return from depot install' or 'out of the box install'.

blaze, Did you reinstall the os and drivers? How is everything going? Send Alienware-JuanG a PM if you need Alienware assistance.

I left the OS that came with it in. When I first got the computer I put in a new OS and still got the same problem so im not putting in a new OS again. I call tech support but didnt have the computer with me so I have to have the computer with me again when I call. I replaced the RAM sticks and havent had an error yet so I'll wait and see if it does it again before I call.
Thanks Guys
