Re: BSOD - IRQL -- Stop Error

what was the system installed with (RAM) before 4 gb was put in it?

Nvidia drivers commonly crash Windows systems, maybe you should checkout
Nvidia.com.

I had blue screen like yours with:

Compaq Presario vista 32
Force Ware Release 15*.** <--unsure on exact one
System came prebuilt with 1gb ram, and internal video card

how my problem went:

my first blue screen happened 2 days after I bought the computer (As I
thought the other vista computer did the same thing and the whole system
died thought). This computer actually rebooted afterwards, and windows did
not have an answer to the problem as usual. I ran all mem tests, all system
tests, and all hardware tests. All were normal. Out of frustration I started
to look at every administration function...wow windows update fails and has
errors, wow system restore refuses to make a system restore point error.
first thought, virus. scanned and no virus was found...starting to get
confused I ask for help @ dslreports.com (a place I've been a member of for
quite awhile), and none of them had an answer. so I said F* it and wiped the
computer back to the beginning. ran system restore, worked fine..im like
wtf? ran windows update...updates found...wtf? thought to myself maybe the
computer malfunctioned?, only 2 days later windows update error...grr I
thought, but at least system restore works (for now). well, my ordered
video card, and 2 gb ram showed up, so I was like f it, and I installed
them. BAM STOP error, tested memory, passed with flying colors. unsure on
exact problem now, I said screw it since the system didnt STOP error after
that, so I installed ForceWare Release 158.25 Drivers...guess what.... STOP
error again, and after reboot fine. then i thought checkdisk. ran the test,
and the test found several corrupted areas (on a 7 day old PC at this
point), and corrected them. the computer still malfunctions, saying exe's
are corrupted and such. no windows update, AV malfunctioning with no virus
present, and overall poor system performance for 20-30 minutes after bootup.

underline problem that I could think of in all cases of bluescreens,
problems, and reboots is vista 32. that is the only common factor in all my
recent computer problems.

Conclusion: Vista 32 is corrupting my hard drive and most likely is
corrupting your hard drive causing your system to think a file exists does
not exit or a file that should exist in a certain area is actually there but
vista 32 corrupted the file and now vista 32 can not find the file. what
hapens in this scenario as an end result is a bluescreen.

if A = A then it is true.
if A is B but vista 32 change B to C, and vista 32 forgot that it changed B
when vista 32 goes to search for B all vista 32 gets in return is A does not
equal C and results in a D, which D is a bluescreen.

I probably rambled but all well, I feel your pain.
