BSOD - Machine_Check_Exception

BSOD - Machine_Check_Exception
well this just sucks! I was busy burning a DVD+R with my NEC 3520A. when my computer froze for about 4secs and then went to those blue screens we all hate..

I think that the error has to do with my burner because before i got it to burn Nero and windows kept reading the DVD+R as a blank CD. So i went into Nero 6.0.0.16 and went to configure. I selected Enable all recorder formats (because it wasn't reading the dvd).. I started the burn, i think it got about 50% done and then caused the BSOD. I am not sure but thats what i think.. I was using Dysan DVD+R 4.7Gb (1-2.4x) discs.. I have burned other dvds before i just dono why it would do this.

Oh also when i went to start the burn i get a message that says nero has a known compatibility issue with this version of windows? I am running windows xp home edition v5.1.2600 with sp2 (oem).

When the BSOD came up i recorded what it said...
the error or whatever was called " Machine_Check_Exception "

and at the end of the BSOD it had the following numbers...
Stop 0x0000009C (0x00000004, 0x8054D5F0, 0xB2000000, 0x00070F0F)

the wierd thing is when i started windows i got no fatal error recovery msg or anything like that...

anyone know what i should do? i cant find where the minidumps were because no fatal error msg came up... please help me

I doubt it is my video card because it is a brand new nVidia Geforce 7800GTX and i have been using it for like a month with games like HL2, BF2, Farcry and lots more...

 

I was using Dysan DVD+R 4.7Gb (1-2.4x) discs..


a simple question butttt-- what speed were you attempting the burn? NOTE hitting automatic in the burn speed does not always work and you may have to set it in the drop down menu.

you said you have not used these discs b4 ?? could be a compatability issue with the burner/cdr disc

 

yea it probably was the damn discs, i have used their DVD-RW ones before. just these are new and I think i should never have bought em... anyone know if verbatim is anygood?

 

I had the same error as you and no fatal error report coming up. The problem is that it happens quite frequently to me and I even re-installed windows xp but it keeps happening.
It happens mainly during windows start-up.
I also have got a nVidia Geforce 7800gtx and the NEC DVD RW ND-3530A and no clue about what to do.

 

Hi mPK,
I've found you though the google search engine as i was looking for awnsers about the same "machine check exception" message than u had. In fact u seem to be the only one to have the same "0x0000009c (0x00000004, 0x8054D5F0,0xB2000000, 0x00070f0f)" problem (i've never burned any cd or dvd yet), so it would be really gentle of u if u could give me a clue about the origine of this problem u had, and may be giving me helpfull advises to resolve those problems. Anything to see with the geforce? Please help me!
Thanx a lot
