blue screen of death: driver_irql_not_less_or_equal HELP!!

[Majin Vegeta]

Hello,

Please, somebody help me. Every day, I randomly get the blue screen of
death with a complete memory.dmp file being written. The blue screen says
driver_irql_not_less_or_equal 0x000000d1 (0x00000000, 0x00000002,
0x00000000, 0x00000000).

I am running Windows XP Home
3.2 Ghz P4c800 deluxe asus motherboard
512 MB of RAM

I checked the RAM. It has NO ERRORS. The problem is not the RAM.
I have recently gotten a new motherboard, but the problem STARTED happening
after I installed norton internet security 2004 (this includes norton
antivirus and a firewall). The problem still occurs even when I uninstall
norton internet security.

I am a newbie at debugging the memory.dmp file. I tried running dumpchk
memory.dmp at the prompt, but there were no "exception" error found within
the check. I just installed "debugging tools for Windows". I do not know
how to debug the memory.dmp file, I am a UNIX guru and not a Windows XP
guru. Can somebody
help me?

Did you install any drivers for your new motherboard?
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL is usually (always?) caused by a device
driver.

Does it stop at a blue screen (BSOD) when it crashes? If not, go to
Control Panel->System, Advanced tab, click Settings in the Startup and
Recovery panel, and *UN*check 'Automatically restart'. Next time it
happens it should stop at the BSOD. See if it mentions a file name where
the crash occurred.

I have already done that, it stops at the blue screen. The message is

STOP 0x000000d1 (0x00000000,
0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000000).

I want to know exactly what is causing this. I have re-installed my mobo
drivers. I don't know what to do.
