Kmode Exception error to win32k.sys

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm receiving this error message when I'm in the middle of playing a game. Any game just about. EverQuest, Quake1, Quake3, Sims, etc. Here's what it says:

 

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x0000001e (0xc0000005, 0xa004e5c8, 0x00000000, 0x6aab9aa0). Microsoft Windows 2000 [v15.2195]. A dump was saved in: C:\WINNT\MEMORY.DMP.

 

I've tried to interpret the parameters, but I dunno I'm blonde I guess. I've tried lots of troubleshooting, and have been trying to fix this for a week. I tried changing sound cards, installing different video drivers, still no good. Here are my specs:

 

TYAN-ATX S1598 AMD K6-2 450mhz

256mb Pc100 RAM

40gig Western Digital HD

52x Aopen CD-Rom

Geforce2 MX 32mb running Detonator3 windows2000 Drivers.

Diamond SupraExpress 56k int ISA modem (model 2720)

Advanced Logic Sound card (ALS120 model number)

Windows 2000 Professional

 

The sound sounds garbled sometimes when my Processor is doing straneous work. Sounds like the sound drivers, but I've tried installing alot of different drivers for sound. My other soundcard gives me static beeps when my CPU is working.

 

Please post any info, tips, etc on how to fix this issue.

Which driver version? i.e 10.80, 12.41, etc. Try changing your driver to a different version.

Do you have the drivers for the motherboard chipset installed?

Have you downloaded Service Pack 2 yet?

 

What is your power supply rated? Shouldn't be anything less than 250 Watts, although 300 Watts is even better.
