you should prob..know i have
win vista-32/86x ....3-1gig kingston (667)and 1 512(not sure) / a nvida 8800gts 336 ddr3/factality sound card/3.4 pentium D/775 chipset 965 mobo intel
tracing my steps of what i did yesturday are
1.enabled PAE/ disabled DEP or i think i did :/(for first time) now i get 3336 instead of the old 2xxx..(i didnt restart comp) the 512 doesnt show up now either??
2. had some time so i decided to download anti viral software
( kaspersky)...after being plauged by AUPD.exe ,i ran it , and found a million virus's (over 1000)or so , i then quarintened and removed them..(did not reset comp still)
3.then i left comp runnin all night downloading farcry2!!..i never leave my comp on all night!!..
4. woke up in the mornin farcry2 was done..did NOT try to install it, comp was working fine,,i reset my comp.
5..now i get BSOD irql not less or equal.., i can only open safe mode & safe mode command line nothing else works...
WHAT I TRIED
1.reversing DEP PAE setting i changed(still says 3336 for mem tho)
2.i tried pulling mem sticks one at a time to see if they were bad.(i dont know tho if thats how u test them)
3.tried disableing nvida drivers from device manager(heard nvida drivers can casue this)
4.removed kaspersk/ software i installed that day
5.checked msconfig for abnormal start up properties
6.reset dip switch on mobo for bios
nothin works ??, ive had same hardware for yr now with no changes, and never had this problem??
tec...spec
***stop 0x0000000A (0x0000004C, 0x00000002, 0x00000001, 0x823A4DAE)
