Advanced computer help!!! asap.

#9238678 - 11/13/08 04:55 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

I just bought all new parts to make a sick computer.

Quad core intel processor, 4gb ram, serial drive, the works. All I have at teh moment is a cracked XP CD I have been using for years, and has never had an issue.

I put all my parts together and doubled checked everything. I then started it up and everything looked good.

I booted from the XP cd, all good. formatted the HD and then it began copying over all the XP files, still all good.

It finished copying and restarted to start installing, it got to "installing dvices" and took me to the blue screen of death giving me the message

"IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"

The only thing not brand new on this computer is the power supply.

help pleeeeaaase :laugh:

, and thanks.

PS; I have googled this and found nothing has helped me. Also, I have onboard video at this point so, it is not driver faults.

Ok-- this can be a number of things but I need some more information. If you can generate the error, what is the error code that goes along with the BSOD message (if any)? It will be a variant in the format of 0x0000007e and might include a file name.

That will help me a lot in diagnosing whats going wrong.

Has the error happened through more than 1 attempt?

Make sure the CPU is running at an appropriate temperature in your BIOS.

It can be caused by a driver problem with a piece of hardware on the motherboard.

Sometimes I see this error because the drives are in the wrong configuration. Do you know what interface your harddrive\optical drive uses (IDE, SATA etc)?

Occasionally this error can be caused by faulty RAM, but that's less likely and if it gets to that point we can test the memory.

So-- check the CPU temp, make sure your drives are in the right configuration, then make the error happen again and get the details.

Let me know how it goes or if you have other questions.

What is the wattage of your power supply? Please list all the specs of your computer...it could be a number of things. Not enough power to a graphics card could cause that message. Also, double check that any PCI cards are VERY SECURE, a loose graphics card caused that error for me before.

My Hard drive is a SATA 80gb

There is only one PCI slot on the board, and it is not in use.

There are 2 sticks of RAM, both 2 gb each, running dual channel.

I only have onboard vid.

My power supply is 500W max, and is a couple years old, but obviously working ok if I got as far as installing windows.

The error is,

0x0000000A (0x00000010, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x80523e78)

The error occurs everytime, just around "installing devices"

Oddly enough, I built this new computer because my old one kept restart from teh same damn error.

The only similarities are the power supply and the XP CD.

my CPU is running at 40c

motherboard is at 39c

ICH is at 62c

MCH is at 45c

I suggest you try a new CD then.

QFT. The error code is the really generic one.

If you want, until you get another disc, try pulling one stick of RAM and redo the install see if it happens again. If it does, remove it, put the other one in, try again (process of elimination).

But really, get a real XP CD and see what happens. Then we can get to troubleshooting hardware.

Well..not necessarily a REAL XP CD. I've never used any but the pirated ones. Reburn it and try again. If that doesn't work, download another image and burn that one and try it.
