Hmmm...I just recently removed the IBM CS430 USB camera (also no drivers) as well. Perhaps it was not th Zip drive! Do you have any USB devices attached without proper/working drivers. My Zip drive works fine now, with or without a disk in the drive, so perhaps it is the camera/USB after all.

dost thou possess a SCSI Zip drive from Iomega? I was getting this for a while. Believe it or not, it seemed to make a difference whether I had a disk in the Zip drive or not, whether this bug occurred. It only happened at shutdown, and only after installing the new Iomega software. Now, I could be dreaming, but keeping the disk out of the Zip drive when I shutdown, ended the error for me. Good luck.

Somebody put a note up on this site that says the CS430 works under Win2000. I hope they post details if they had to do something special, because it sure as hell doesn't work without drivers. :}

My system was very similar to yours and was bombing just as frequently. But, upon installing those lovely Dell SBLive drivers with the universal .inf, it has been damn near bulletproof. I had a game failure yesterday, but I am sure that was DX7/ Unreal Tournament-related. afew more revs of the geforce and sblive drivers and I hope to reach nirvana!

I had the same problem, because I started with older drivers, v3.68. Connecting a different (smaller res) monitor to my system allowed me to change resolutions and fix the problem. For me, the problem was a weird low-refresh rate that my 21" Hitachi 801 wouldn't handle. Once I got to change the settings to something more zesty, everything worked fine. Hope that does it for you! :}
