ok im getting frusterated with my computer(as im sure a majority of people do) but last night while listening to some mp3's, my sound started to act up and sounded like it was scrambled. i restarted my computer and got a STOP Error as follows: Stop 0x0000000A or IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. i restarted once again and i got another stop error message, but this time it did not list what it was, it just listed some hex codes. the three codes it listed were: 0x0000008E. 0xC000005, 0x806QAB13, and 0xF8264A64. i looked these up on the microsoft site, but nothing came up. i ended up doing a low level format and installing each piece or hardware one by one. any help or input would be great.
specs:
WinXP Home.
AMD XP 2100+
ABIT KR7a motherboard
512DDR RAM
Seagate Baracuda 60gig hard drives(2)
Lite-on 48x cd-r/w drive
Pioneer A05 dvd-r/w drive
ATI 8500LE video card.
p.s. i was using those round cables but i have switched back to the old flat ribbon cable for my hard drives. i still have to find a set for my optical drives.
Thanks in advance,
Josh
