I receive a screen "A problem has occurred and windows is
shutting down to protect your computer.
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" Have any idea on what this
means??? this is a fresh install on a new computer. i
swapped out the hard drive to see if that was the
problem, but i get the same error. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
