BSOD - error 1000008e

Hi,

Sometimes my laptop unfortunately gets a BSOD
The message says that it is probably an error with wink2sys.. And there is nothing strange in the eventlog before the BSOD. Only "maximum TCP/IP connections reached" and stuff which I get all the time when using utorrent.

I've read some thread in this forums and installed windbg to analyse the dump-file, but I don't really know how to proceed..
Here is the dumpfile: http://download.yousendit.com/E4AF157227E55770
And the windbg results i get are attached to this message..

I'm, thankful for any help!

 

Well, start here first.

You really need this to be corrected first. Its a finnicky setting...copy and paste this, with NO spaces before or after:

SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

 

I have this exact row in "Symbol File Path". Even tried removing it and pasted yours.. "Source File Path" and "Image File Path" are empty.

edit: The directory c:\symbols was also created when I entered this for the first time. But doesn't work anyways..

 

This happens from time to time, you arent the first to alert me to it.

Can you post the debug file here? Just zip it up and attach it. I have a working copy of WinDBG (Gotta wonder if an older revision would work better for you).

 

Oh, allright..
The dumpfile is in my first message (the yousendit-link). Or do you need anything else? Sorry if I'm not understanding.. I'm very thankful for your help!

Don't know if my problem has to do with my RAM, but just tried to run memtest - but it crashed after ~10secs both times I tried it. Maybe it's not compatible with my laptop, since it was released just recently in September..

 

Oops, missed link. I shall review it today to see if I can find out any useful info for ya...

Try this in the meantime, and allow several hours for it to run.

 

Thanks!
I'll try that test too in the meantime. Just finished running the "Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool" which completed without founding any errors.

 

Ok, here is what my results look like.

Note that it looks like Opera was being used at the time...do you finsd all these problems happen while online, or browsing?

 

Thx!
Since I'm connected to the Internet via LAN (fiber connection), I am always online. And Opera is open 95% of the time.. Does the log state that Opera was open or that Opera caused the error?

I've ran 3 full tests of memtest86+ which all passed without any errors. Can run memtest more while sleeping tonight I guess..

 

I found out from this part of the debug results.

PROCESS_NAME: Opera.exe

Try updating your NIC drivers.

 

Okey, I've updated my NIC drivers now (reinstalled the old ones, since no new drivers are available). I also raised the maximum tcp/ip-connection thing to 50 instead of 10 in case that was the problem... I also ran memtest86+ 1.70 for 7 hourse tonight without any errors being found. Let's see if the problem repeats itself...

Btw. When windows update recommends other drivers for your NIC than the ones from the manufacturer.. which one are you supposed to install? The same goes with my external display.. should I use the drivers I got on CD when buying the screen? Or just use the vista drivers which seem to work fine... ??

 

Today, it crashed again.. the same error I think..
Could you please review if it is the same error?
