I believe I am having problems with one or more of my drivers on xp. Before XP would restart at random, maybe once every other day. Now every startup it says: 'start service database locked', and 'can't start kernel mode driver service'
I suspect one or more of these 3 drivers are the suspect.
1) driver for creative soundblaster audigy se 7.1 sound card. Some reviews stated that this driver caused trouble for their op system, also I don't think it is certified for xp.
2) asus eax 1050 video card driver. This one is certified for vista but not xp.
3) asus ethernet driver 'nVidia chipset driver 8.26. This is for the motherboard network chipset. Previously I had huge trouble when I installed the firewall that came with this driver.
All these drivers came off the disks that came with the product.
Has anyone experienced problem with these drivers on XP? Right now I am reluctant to test unistall them because, for example, my Premiere Elements program will probably blow up without a sound driver, etc.
