Guest rusty7010 Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 I am using Windows XP Home Edition, Dell 4600, IE7. This screen comes up just when I am "surfing" on traffic exchanges. It states that it is a Windows error and must shut down before damage is done. The following is listed on the screen: (The message about the DRIVER IRQL, as listed above in the subject line) In the instructions it says to "Disable BIOS Memory Options". I couldn't copy the wording on the blue screen, so I can't state exactly what it said, but it also had this: (0x0000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) This blue screen has come up about five times in the last three weeks. It just seems to happen when I am doing the surfing. I shut the computer off and the reboot and everything goes back to normal. I am just worried that my hard drive is going bad. I don't know alot about this, so sorry for any info I may have left out. Thanks
