BSOD with WinDVD in new T61/Vista Ultimate
Posted: Sun Sep 23, 2007 4:30 pm
Hi all,
I am the proud and happy owner of a brand new T61. I upgraded from a T43 that has served me well. Stats:
Ordered 9/10/2007, shipped 9/12/2007, received 9/17/2007.
6457 CTO, 2.2 GHz 7500 processor, 15.4" WSXGA+ screen, NVIDIA NVS 140, Intel Turbo Memory 1GB (I know, stupid purchase), 9 cell Li-Ion battery, 3 Gb RAM, 100 Gb 7200 rpm HD, DVD Dual layer, Intel 4965 AGN wireless, NMB keyboard (yeah!)... and I made the leap to Windows Vista Ultimate.
In any case, I have been quite busy trying to optimize my system for productivity at work (in academics). Completed all the ThinkVantage and Windows updates and driver updates, minor tweaking (like disabling some startup apps and indexing, nothing dramatic).
Overall, I have been very pleased with my purchase... until I experienced the dreaded BSOD!!! The first time, I thought it was a fluke, the second time, I suspected a problem. Both times, the BSOD happened approximately 20-45 minutes into playing a DVD using the pre-packaged Intervideo WinDVD player. The error is listed as:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.256.1
Locale ID: 1033
Additional information about the problem:
BCCode: 124
BCP1: 00000000
BCP2: D4107A60
BCP3: B2000040
BCP4: 00000800
OS Version: 6_0_6000
Service Pack: 0_0
Product: 256_1
Files that help describe the problem:
C:\Windows\Minidump\Mini092307-01.dmp
C:\Users\*me*\AppData\Local\Temp\WER-199291-0.sysdata.xml
C:\Users\*me*\AppData\Local\Temp\WER55FB.tmp.version.txt
Funny this is that I can't open the Mini092307-01.dmp file, and the WER* files don't exist (even as hidden files).
I really could use some help as a Vista newbie.
Thanks!
