hm, sounds like a driver to me.

 

look here:

"Stop 0x000000D1 or DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

The Stop 0xD1 message indicates that the system attempted to access pageable memory using a kernel process IRQL that was too high. Drivers that have used improper addresses typically cause this error.

 

Interpreting the Message

This Stop message has four parameters:

 

Memory referenced.

IRQL at time of reference.

Type of access (0x00000000 = read operation, 0x00000001 = write operation).

Address that referenced memory.

Resolving the Problem

For additional troubleshooting suggestions that apply to all Stop errors, see "Stop Message Checklist" later in this appendix.

 

Stop 0xD1 messages can occur after installing faulty drivers or system services. If a driver is listed by name, disable, remove, or roll back that driver to confirm that this resolves the error. If so, contact the manufacturer about a possible update. Using updated software is especially important for backup programs, multimedia applications, antivirus scanners, DVD playback, and CD mastering tools.

For more information about Stop 0xD1 messages. Search using keywords winnt, 0x000000D1, and 0xD1."

it doesnt matter if its during a new install or not, its the same thing. It would help if you gave a detailed spec of your system.

You would need to use bios version 1.016 or newer with that CPU. I would suggest you contact ASUS about updating the bios and then load setup defaults and set the Dim Voltage to 2.75 Volts and test the modules with http://www.memtest.org with Legacy USB disabled.

 

 

i mention above i have the 1.09 bios

 

i have the problem sloved when i called the customer suport to manualy set the settings

the auto setting just mess everything up

but now i have a minor problem

mem test is saying my memory is runing 199 mhz not 200

and my fsb is at 799 not 800

Actually, that's normal. Basically, the numbers aren't always exact and then there's something called "spread spectrum" which changes them a little again...

 

Running at 199 and 799 is fine, it'll probably fluctuate up to 201 and 802 or so sometimes as well.

 

If it's stable, then it's fine.
