Blue screens I cant seem to fix..

Guest

Greetings,
I have a system with an Asus P4P800SE that I cannot seem to fix a
blue-screen issue that has plagued it for the past 3-4 months.
I've replaced:
* memory three times with different DDR400's, 2x512 Mushkin greens, 2x512
Muskin Performance, finally 2x1gig Corsair. All three sets can make it
through memtest86 tests overnight 6+ passes without a single problem.
* Replaced PSU with an Antec NEO 430W with stable rails.
* Replaced CPU and CPU cooler to a P4-3.0ghz, 800mhz w/ HT. Absolutely peak
temp of 50C under heavy, multi-hour load of Prime95.. normal average of 46C
under normal working load.
* Replaced the videocard from a 9700 Pro to an X800 GTO
* Replaced the wireless network card from a Linksys Wireless G PCI to a
Netgear WG311T.
* Shuffled the Audigy soundcard to various slots along with the network card
(only 2 PCI cards in the thing). On-board devices- only have the USB ports
enabled- on-board NIC, parallel, serial and SATA controller are disabled (for
testing).

The blue-screens are of IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error, with it appearing to
be a Pagefile clear causing them. The backtrace is included at the end of
this post.

The system has an i865PE chipset, using both primary and secondary IDE
controllers (Primary Master: Western Digital 120gig HD using UMDA 5,
Secondary Master: Sony DVD-RW using UDMA 2). The ICH5R controller is
disabled/not in use as it has no SATA drives.

I'm baffled as the system does these blue-screens about 1-3 times a day at
various stages. Sometimes just surfing the internet on the desktop,
sometimes while in a game or exiting a game, other times just idle at the
desktop.

I'm wondering if anyone knows more about the backtrace/minidump so as they
might be able to yield hints towards what I should replace/try next. The
dumps are always the same backtrace with nt!MiReleaseConfirmedPageFileSpace
being the last entry and no device/.sys files referenced to make the hunt any
easier. Any tips appreciated!

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (a)
An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high. This is usually
caused by drivers using improper addresses.
If a kernel debugger is available get the stack backtrace.
Arguments:
Arg1: 00000028, memory referenced
Arg2: 00000002, IRQL
Arg3: 00000000, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation

I should add-
The system has two partitions on the 120gig drive, 40gig C and left-over
~74gig for drive D:. I've, of course, defragged both drives and also tried
moving the pagefile to C: only, then D: only (which loses the ability to get
minidumps), then finally split to both C: and D:.. and now back to just C:
(2048/2048 min max, and also tried to "Let Windows Manage"... on C:). No
impact to the blue screens.

Are all your drivers up to date? In addition, I would suggest swapping
the IDE cables between your HD and CD drives for troubleshooting
purposes. Maybe one of those would make a difference...
