Brian Frank 0 Posted August 17, 2001 This is weird. It's not frequent, and I can figure out what I do to start it, and it's been doing it only in the past month or so. It's BSOD'd me before firing up UT, IE, or trying to play a media file. It's a KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED and points at wdmaud.sys as the culprit. Win2k SP2. Specs on sig line, it's the first rig.

Nemesis 1 Posted August 18, 2001 Brian, WDMAUD.SYS is Micro$ofts "MMSYSTEM Wave/Midi API mapper". I have SP2 on my W2K system, which gives me v5.00.2195.2861 04/05/2001 13:05:02, this file may need to be replaced with a backup or re-installed thru device manager. Share this post Link to post
Brian Frank 0 Posted August 18, 2001 I did think it was related to sound in some way, however I've also had the BSOD with Media Player 6.4 and even when I upgraded to 7.1. Share this post Link to post
Nemesis 1 Posted August 19, 2001 Brian, Sorry, I don't know how this driver is installed, so can't really offer any help. Share this post Link to post
Brian Frank 0 Posted August 19, 2001 Hmmm, I may just have to live with it, or snag it and replace the file with another from a different pc. I really wish I could just find out what exactly triggers it, but it doesn't happen on a consistant enough basis to really work out well Share this post Link to post
