My power unit & graphics card went down. PCWorld(UK) fitted new graphics
[GeForce 8400GS]
and power unit. WEB access runs for ~5minutes & then BSOD, saying :

"The driver is mismanaging system PTEs.
disable BIOS memory options eg caching, shadowing
STOP: 0x000000DA, etc"

Google search yielded a MS Hotfix KB831899 but this failed :
"different hardware platform"

Other Googles suggest the NVIDIA driver is incorrect, hence the Hotfix.

Yet another implies WindowsServer2003 is problem (this came with the
ASUS board but is not used(?) since I use Win XP x64 SP2.

System: ASUS A8N5X m/bd; Athlon x64 2.4GHz, twin 300GB h/ds, 2Gb RAM
WEB acces via ethernet cable to router[Belkin Wireless G]
cable modem[VirginMedia] @ 4Gb/s

What next? Anyone got better ideas, please?
roj,
tearing hair from already bald top! DuH!

Hi,
a lot of people are telling the nvidia integrated firewall does a lot of
corruption.
get rid of it. (google this)
to be on sure side with save written data : uncheck write caching for your
harddrives.
try different version of your nvidia drivers: especially the chipset
drivers ->you may try one (older) with "WHQL"
at least : have a clean install of these drivers: uninstall, reinstall
have a checkdisk on your drive, to avoid "allready done wrong" occuring
again
have your swapfile on a separate partition, same with your temporary
internetfiles, to avoid "crossover" writing faults
sometimes a bit confusing : x64 is based on windows server
after you got a new Powersupply, check your voltages in BIOS
jk

I (and many others) were never able to fix this. The only solution that
worked for me was to replace my nVidia cards with ATI cards. If I had to do
it over (and I still might), I would keep my nVidia cards and scrap XP64,
reverting to XP32. The minimal performance boost XP64 gives me is not worth
the trouble, and I'm seriously considering going back to XP32.

Thanks Juergen, Zootal,
I'm going to try the MS debug before
deleting anything.
There was a useful article at "BLUESCREENS" with suggestions for checking
which driver might be the cause. Will try that and come back if it works.
Have a Good Xmas and An Improving New Year [ I wish :) ]
Cheers,
roj
