heres what i got.....
bsod>irql not less or equal>system reboots>error report>WLAN CARD is the problem....thats where i lose you all.
im running a very old thinkpad t41 2373 7fu
i did what microsoft told me to do and now i only get the pesky BSOD when connecting or disconnecting to the internet or when restarting. sometimes 10-20 times in a row.
i now have a partition that i didnt want and im POOR:-(
please tell me i can fix this without buying another wlan card.
oh btw i didnt have anything to back up so i restored to factory settings several times(used comp so no copy of windows to install after full reformat),downloaded all updates,drivers,sp2 and no matter what ......bsod
i tried the lenovo forums but it seems no one looks at them ?!
and from what i can remember of the blue screen is that its different sometimes when consecutively rebooting.
sometimes it has the file dump stop message and other times it doesnt. sometimes it says to disable bios caching or shadowing...which i have no idea how...
sorry for the repeat my edit time expired
