BSOD and reboot when I click Display "Settings" tab

[CS]

Hi

Windows XP, all available updates, running on a Gateway
Solo 1450 notebook. Intel 830M Graphics Controller (and
an 82830M Controller(?)). Only unusual hardware is a
Kensington external RF mouse, that disables my serial
mouse and touchpad.

When I attempt to resize the desktop, using the
Properties window, I get the Blue Screen of Death and an
immmediate reboot when I click on the 'Settings' tab.
This occurs whether I go through the desktop Properties,
or via the Control Panel.

Any suggestions for solving my display size problem, or
letting me use my 'Settings' tab?

TIA,
Chuck

This is generally caused from having third party desktop managers installed.

Try the edit on line 285 (right hand side)

Got it:

"STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0xBF9CBF33, 0xEE70CFDC,
0x00000000

iadlmdnt5.dll - Address BF9CBF33 base at BF9B7000,
DateStamp 3f845344"

I hope this means something to someone!

Thanks for the help so far!

The tweak didn't work, same problem. I also removed the
Logitech Desktop Messenger, and shut down the startup of
Adobe Gamma. Still no joy.

Message on Stop Screen:

"STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0xBF9CBF33, 0xEE70CFDC,

I don't have a clue what that means, but there it is.

Thanks for the help so far!
