Or IRQ_NOT_LSS_Equal or something like that.

Anyway here's the specs:

E4300 @ 3.19GHz
Noctua HSF
Asus P5N-E SLI
Crucial Ballistix 2GB DDR2 PC2-5300C3 @ 800 MHz 4-4-4-12 2T
Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty
2 X 36GB Raptor RAID 0 - System + Apps drive
250 GB SATA WD Caviar - Storage drive
XFX 7900 GTX
Hiper 580W PSU (Enermax 720W coming soon)
8 hours Orthos blend test stable

I've googled around but there's not really much coming up. Some people say memory, but surely it wouldn't run Orthos for 8 hours if it was? I've not tried memtest but will if needed.

Some threads also suggest PSU, but I'm sure the Hiper has more then enough Juice to run my rig. I only have 4 USB devices and I can't see the system drawing more then 400W full load. Maybe the Enermax will sort it?

Any idea's?
 
I'm getting similar problems with a totally different spec and I have a feeling its a driver conflict issue. Once I eventually get my RMA for my external hard drive sorted by LaCie, I'll be able to back up the essentials and completely wipe my hard drives, reinstall bit by bit and see how it goes.

One question for the wise out there, if it is a driver conflict, would it seem to get worse over time? Or should I be expecting something to go pop in the near future?

PK!
 
If your running Vista then it could be issues with your Creative Drivers.

Theres hell on at the moment with the Creative Hardware not stable under Vista.
 
I'm running XP Pro right now. It normally happens 9/10 in XP environment and not when I'm playing games or anything else less intensive. If the PC's been off for a while, it will do it at first switch on, then after the re-boot it won't do it till the next time it's off. Very strange. If I can't solve it by the usual I'll just do a clean install, and this time Ghost it.
 
As what Energise says.. but just to add, the original message you got is normally memory related. Check that the vdim is running at the correct volage for your RAM. Check the manufacturers website for power requirements.
 
I'd just run through and do tests:

1. Do a memtest as mentioned on your RAM
2. Download and burn the official hard drive checking util from manuf. website then run the tests on the hard drives you have
3. Check the BIOS to make sure no settings are incorrectly done, as mentioned with the vdimm.
4. Check the rails on your PSU to make sure it's not under / over a lot on one of the lines
5. Replace hard drive cables
6. Change ports if possible on your motherboard for your hard drive
7. Examine the dump files located in c:\windows\minidump with the Microsoft Debuggings for Windows tools, can download them from their website, it'll tell you which files, programs or/and drivers caused the fault.

1. Ran two sweeps and zero errors
2. Does this work on RAID partitions? Downloaded the WD one but couldn't find anything for testing
3. All fine.
4. Seems OK. Though I'm getting a new one arriving tomorrow.
5. Don't have any spare lol. Doubt it could be caused by a cable though?
6. Tried that and still the same
7. Can't find that folder on my drive?

Thanks for your help.
