Default BSOD

Your problem is probably a Device and/or Driver.
I would start by taking a long look at the Creative Sound Card. Such as
uninstalling it and the related Software. Also try putting it in another
PCI slot. I would pop the Creative down to slot 4.
Also Creative cards have problems with XP's virtual IRQ's. So IRQ
21,22,23 should be avoided for Creative sound cards.
Good luck.

Okay, I've been getting this error about once a month, after I come out of
standby (S3, a.k.a. STR). It doesn't say any error message like the other
BSOD screens I've seen, such as IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL or something like
that. All it does is have those annoying hexidecimal codes. Here's my system
stats:

Gigabyte GA-8SQ800
Pentium 4 Northwood
Speed rated 2.4GHz, running 2.95GHz
FSB rated 533MHz, running 656MHZ
System Bus rated 133MHz, running 164MHz
VCore rated 1.55V, running 1.675V
1x256 Corsair High-Quality Ram
Speed rated DDR400 running DDR410
BFG Asylum (GeForce4 MX440-SE) 64MB DDR in PCI 1
Creative SoundBlaster PCI512 in PCI 2
Linksys Instant PCI Wireless Networking Card in PCI3
PCI 4/5 empty
AGP 4x/8x empty
1x Maxtor 80GB, 7200RPM, 8MB Cache, ATA/133 on Primary Master (CS)
1x Generic 56x CD-ROM on Secondary Master (CS)
1x Generic 3.5" 1.44MB Floppy Drive on Floppy Connector
1x Yamaha CRW3200UXZ (USB 2.0 CD-RW, 24x/10x/40x)

The hexidecimal codes I'm getting a

***STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0x80515F86, 0xF9E6CC0C, 0xF9E6C906)

What does this mean? Is there any website that can tell me what these codes
mean? How can I fix the problem? It's not extremely annoying, as I save all
of my data before going into standby anyways so I does no harm, but I'd like
to get it resolved. Also, it only happens about once a month so it's no big
deal, but it's still bugging me.

Thanks for any help

Microsoft's support site can. It took me less than 30 seconds to find
http://support.microsoft.com/support.../q137/5/39.asp -- simply by
searching for STOP 0x0000007E.
There's a better solution, but since you didn't specify the OS you use in
your long list, I can't point you at it. Anyhow, if you have Windows 2000
or XP, search Microsoft's download site for [OS name] Support Tools. If you
have NT, I'm not sure there is one. If you have the original Windows 2000
or XP Pro CD (i.e. not an OEM install or upgrade), the support tools are
already on the CD.

That said, the most common reason for this error is too hard overclocking.
That it happens when you go out of standby could be either if you have fans
that spin down -- if so, hook them up so they keep running; or you draw too
much power at once from the PSP when coming out of standby, not giving the
CPU enough juice in its overclocked state -- if so, check whether you can
switch to a better power supply. Anyhow, you might want to lower the
overclock a tad anyhow, as you've encountered problems.

It is not related to BSODs. Problems with Corsair RAM were related to the
memory timings programmed into SPD, they were too aggressive and caused
boards not to boot. It has been fixed with New BIOSes.

You've got no right to be pedantic about usenet etiquette mate, when you're
asking for, and being given help!
