Hey all!!
I have a problem and was wondering if you can help me
Anyways, i have installed XP Mode onto my laptop, followed the "instructions" from microsoft, then, I open it from my start menu, it opens, i get to the end and click "finish". The window disappears for about 5 seconds, then my laptop BSOD's with the error Driver_Irql_not_less_or_equal. I have tried this with my "normal" every day version of 7 ultimate and a fresh install of 7 pro (with ONLY drivers installed for hardware, c/o windows update). So, my drivers are all up to date...i cant think whats the problem. I have 2 other Win7 Machines but i do not want to try WinXP mode on them as i do not want to start causing problems,etc. ALso, when opening WinXP mode, sometimes an error occurs stating that a process failed to start - "Cannot start Windows Virtual PC Host Process. Check the system event log for more details. Server execution failed"... :S:S:S
If you would like a dump file, please let me know
(also how to upload it XD )
Laptop Specs:
LG LS50a
1 GB Ram
Intel Pentium M 1.8gHz (intel centrino)
ATI Monility Radeon 9700 Series GFX
Intel Pro Wireless 2200 B/G
Windows 7 Ultimate (primary)
Windows XP Pro (Secondary)
Windows 7 Pro - Installed last night to test WinXpMode
It really doesnt make much sense :/
Thanx all!!
PS. If posted in the wrong place, could mods please move?
EDIT: Added zip file containing BSOD data..also, system is a 32bit system
