Windows not starting
 

I finally got the error report from window not starting.
It start with Driver IRQL not less or equal

Blue screen suggest disabling bios memory such as caching or
shadowing.

ACPI syss-address f8472663 base at F8448000 date stamp 3b7d8550.

This only happens when I shut the computer completely down
for a long time and after I have used the micro-studio program
to copy cd+g's. Usually at some point during the burning process there is a driver error screen. It is almost like
the micro-studio program is unstable.

All of this started with micro-studio, so I am just guessing that
the problem is here. As long as keep my computer on stand-by
windows xp starts up fine.

I'm wondering if somehow Microstudio got into your start up configuration.

Click START, RUN, and type in MSCONFIG

Click on START tab.

If there's anything there that even remotely looks like it could be Microstudio or MTU releted, uncheck it.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to uncheck anything you really don't need running in the background while you're in there. Just make certain to leave SYS TRAY checked.

You may already know to do this, but I don't know that, and am saving you time, if you don't.

Just brainstorming

I to have seen this happen on one of My XP PRO systems, what caused it was that when I used up all the IRQ's (Hardware Boards use these) it gave me this same crash. This was one of my home systems tha didn't have Microstudio installed on it. The problem was that I had to many hardware boards installed using the same IRQ's. This is not a problem that Microstudio can cause. The only tie to the sytstem files that we use is the ASPI drivers. Please double check all your Hardware boards that are installed in the computer, and try contacting Microsoft or another computer Tech about this problem. Microsoft may be your best bet, since this error is there's.

Does it say anything about causing and ivalid page fault in Microstudio.exe? If not, then it is not relating to the Microstudio program.

Now we are a little out of my league. What is a hardware
board? and where do I find it. Other than a printer, and the
plextor burner, I do not have any hardware. I do have have
micro-studio on my Desktop page that comes on after windows
starts up. My computer already had " Record now" on it for
cd burning. I have unistalled any other programs that came with
the plextor burner. I do remember when I got the plextor
burner I installed the "oak" burning program with it. I immediately
got some kind of "report error to microsoft, your system has
recovered from a failure". I immediately uninstalled that program.

So far, as long as I am in stand-by mode, I do not have very many
problems.

I will try to contact microsoft. They are kind of difficult to talk to. Yes, I have had a micro-studio exe. error report when burning.
I dont remember the rest because I was always in a hurry. I will write notify you of the micro-studio exe. error report when I
get it again. I will also check the start-up idea as well. Thank You.

Hardware boards are any physical boards that are installed inside the computer. Or at least this is what I am refferring to in this post.

Yes, please make sure that you post the error message next time.

Is this something that you can actually locate in your computer,
like a sound card, or something that you look for in a
maintenence section of the OS: ie, where you can locate and
do scan-disk for fragments etc.

Yes,
But it is not under the Maintenance stuff. It is physically inside of your computer, this is not software, but an actual piece of hardware.
