Kernel-Power

Having an issue on a machine built to record surveillance and keep getting the following error. was hoping someone would be able to direct me to the source of this issue. it's running GeoVision surveillance software. I apologize if this is too vague and the information below isn't enough for a proper diagnosis. Thanks.

DropCity,
Welcome to SevenForums.

Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions

now add that zip file to your very next post.

Never back update a post.

Thanks. Understandable mistake for a new forum user.

You can also help us to help you by filling in your system specs. Please carry out the following, precisely as written

Update your SevenForums System Specs
User CP (located on the top menu bar) |
Your Profile | Edit System Spec (left-hand column)

To gather info, use Speccy (my favorite) or SIW or System Info

In the System Manufacturer Block, enter:
Manufacturer and Model and
ADD the word laptop, desktop, netbook or tablet.
For example:
Toshiba Satellite L305D notebook.

Provide full windows version info, for example:
MS Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-bit

Use the “Other Info” block for Optical Reader,
Mouse, touchpad, wifi adapter, speakers, monitor, etc

Scroll down and click on SAVE CHANGES.

You will find that in Speccy, you can select info from the display
using your mouse/touchpad and then paste that info into your specs.

SIW is a marvelous program, but the free version does not offer
this capability.
