BSOD - Pastebin.com


This happend shortly after I installed WinCDEmu cd virtuilazation.. And right before it happend I disabled and then enabled my dvd drive because it wasnt working... but when i re enabled it i had to restart... then as everything was closing i got bsod "irql not equal to" that about all I could see untill it just shut down....
P.S. When I restarted it windows did do some updates on the startupp.... Just normal windows updates.... It was nagging me beforehand to restart and bla bla bla...

THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE FOR HELPING ME!!!!!!!!!

The zip you uploaded does not contain any crash dump.

Follow it: Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD
Go to Option Two, Point 2. Download the .reg file and merge it in registry by double clicking it.

Now wait for another BSOD. When it occurred, search the .dmp files manually in the default path: C:\Windows\Minidump or %SystemRoot%\Minidump. See if the crash dump is recorded or not (hopefully it will be recorded).Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

Dont run any disc cleanup tool before you upload another zip, and upload the zip in SF only, not externally.

Anyway, WinCDEmu is as problematic as any other ISO mounter utility. Better you uninstall it. See if it makes the computer stable.

Hey, there is also a portable version of WinCDEmu you can try if the uninstall remedy your issues. Not sure if it will be problem free but you can try I guess. It is the 4.0 beta 1 version.

I can't say if it works well as I haven't used it after considering some copy protection software doesn't work properly when there is a virtual drive loaded.

Oh! Thanks!

I think the problem was wincdemu interecting with my touchpad software...

@arc
Do you think WinCDEmu is the problem, this is the first BSOD on my "New" (used) computer? I'm just wondering if I should return the pc or not....

I dont have a dump to check myself, so I cannot say anything with certainty. But pointer drivers usually dont cause BSODs; whereas WinCDEmu etc are very frequent BSOD causer.

Uninstall WinCDEmu, follow post #2 and let us see any further crash dump. I hopw we will be able to arrive at a decision shortly.
