Thinkpads Forum

Hello friends. I am researching this blue screen. I inadvertantly posted in the X60 group first. I am not sure if it belongs in that forum or not.

The blue screen is:

STOP: 0x0000270F (0x000000000, 0x000000000, 0x000000000, 0x000000000)

This is affecting multiple machines (15+). It mostly occurs when the laptop is in cached mode (not on lan) and also occurs when in docking stations. This issue does seem to occur more when wireless is enabled. The wireless chipset is 11 a/b/g wireless LAN mini pci express. The drivers have been updated multiple times, including SATA drivers. It does seem to also happen more frequently when using the company VPN client which is Sonicwall.

We are also having issues with dropped connections with the onboard LAN driver which is a Intel (R) PRO/1000 PL network connection. I am thinking it may be this driver that blue screens because it can't find a network connection when in cached mode. I cannot find a Intel driver to match, only Lenovo.

The image is a RIS based image. It is occurring on a 1951-CTO and 1951-44U type models of the T60. The image is windows XP SP2.

I am finding no information on the internet in regards to a 270 F bluescreen. If anyone has any information it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I used to have the same problem update your bios to the latest a clean install of windows would be nice and download the latest drivers from lenovo by the way are you using a pcmcia card?

We are not using a pcmcia card when it blue screens. Yes we have the latest drivers using the update utility from Lenovo. We are using the 2.12 bios.

Are you using Access Connections to manage networks?

No it is not on the image. I belive that is a lenovo only application?

i see did you run pc doctor?

Based on my personal experience plus blind guess, I can't help suspecting 3rd party firewall, vpn software and WiFi driver. Have you tried v4.x Atheros driver?

No. What is it? A 3rd party driver? What experience have you had in reference to this issue?
