BSOD After SP1 RC

J

JPO

I'm running Vista Business 32bit, system was running fine until after
installing SP1 RC, now I'm getting intermittent blue screens, it says
tcpip.sys is trying to write into read only memory. Luckily I imaged before
installing the service pack,so I just re-imaged back. Anybody else heard of
this happening?

You are running beta software, a test version of the product, not SP1
itself. You shouldn't be at all surprised that it has problems.

Except for those who are able to run beta software on a second
non-production computer, I strongly recommend that people avoid beta
versions of software, *especially* operating system software. It's
playing with fire. Be patient and wait for the release version.

Yeah, I know, thats why I image before I play. Turns out its Zonealarm
causing it, running sp1 without it and its working fine.

Yeap but for me the bsod was a bad pool call
