windows xp instability

  Asked By: Inika    Date: Jan 22    Category: Windows XP    Views: 168

I have stability problems with my desktop computer and xp. Motherbord
is MSI. Several times a week the computer stops and a blue screen
appears (yes, a blue screen!?) The message is most of the time a
problem with usbport.sys, but sometimes nv4.dll or win32k.sys.
Sometimes it happens 4 times in 5 minutes and than not for a week or
so. I suppose it's a hardwareproblem, but who can tell me what it can
be and what I can do about it?

It is most likely to be a hardware problem. If you
have added any new hardware recently, take it out and
uninstall the drivers. This should isolate the
problem.

usbport.sys, but sometimes nv4.dll or win32k.sys

looks like hardware stuff, feels lie hardware stuff and most definitely
smells like it. remove your usb connected peripherials and see wether it
happens again. good old parallel wil never be grieved completely
