Hi, Dave!
Doesn't the Windows 2000 Power User's group have a backwards-compatibility
mode? I thought that backwards mode was 16-bit.
Unfortunately, on my nice new Windows 2000 /Office XP laptop install, I am
occasionally getting the dreaded BSOD Stop 0x0000000A
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error (at IRQ 2) with hal.dll. I'm going
through knowledge base article 314063 (for WinXP) to solve it. I'm going
through turning off services and removing hardware.
The last crash was with CD-ROM out of the bay and no external mouse. It
always happens during an internet access, either checking email or doing an
FTP transfer.
(once, the error was a Stop 0x000000D1 with ndis.sys).
Searching the web brings up lots of recommendations that repeat each other
but nobody reports that they fixed this error.
Evidentially, this was supposed to be fixed in SP4, but apparently there are
some retrograde issues?. After running all this time on Win2K SP3, I started
getting this error only after upgrading Win2K to SP4. The MS Knowledgebase
says there's a hotfix available but it's not on the website!
AAAAHHH! I've gone from Windows heaven straight down to hell!
Bill.

You'll need to contact product support for the free hotfix.
Never heard of "backwards-compatibility mode"

Sorry, here are the correct terms:

"Users will not be able to run most programs written for previous versions of Windows

Doubtful there's anything automatic for this. It is a permissions issue.

Unless you're actively using it, I don't think compatability mode can have
any possbile effect on stability. Your problem almost certainly lies
elsewhere.
