Irql_not_less_or_equal_to

[gerudoking]

I'm trying to reinstall Windows XP and I keep getting this error message which stops the process altogether:


IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL_TO

*** STOP: 0X0000000A (0X0000001C, 0X00000002, 0X00000001, 0X80517C1C)


Help!

why are you reinstalling xp?


this error usually happens when you install a new piece of hardware or software and something flubbed up during the install. or, if you ask MS, its hardware or memory corruption.
