I have a GeForce4 FX-5200 Video card that constantly causes a BSOD
since I've put in SP2. The message states that the driver nv4_disp
causes an infinite loop. Has anyone seen or fixed this? I've added
the latest driver, but this has not helped. Any ideas?

Hi Jon,

To determine if it is the video driver that is causing the problem I need
you to enable driver verifier.
Steps:
1) Windows Key + R
2) Type in 'verifier' and hit enter
3) Make sure 'Create Standard Setting' is selected and hit next
4) Click on 'Select all drivers installed on this computer' and hit Finish
5) Reboot

There is a possibility that your computer will crash on reboot. If this
occurs hit F8 when rebooting just before the windows logo screen and select
the safe mode boot option. Follow the same steps above but on step 4 choose
'Select driver names from a list'; hit next; check the box next to any
driver where the provider is not Microsoft; hit Finish; reboot.

This will slow the performance of you computer a little while enabled but
will hopefully catch the driver causing corruption. Next time you crash
the blue screen will hopefully say something like
"DRIVER_VERIFIER_DETECTED_VIOLATION". If this occurs please send the
corresponding minidump (by default it is at c:\windows\Minidump ) my way.
If you have any questions or I didn't explain something well enough don't
hesitate to e-mail me back. Good Luck,

Thanks for that Joshua, if and when it crashes again I'll send the
small dump to you.

Thanks

Never got any BSOD since your instructions, but the system is still
locking up/freezes. I've attached the memory dump (hope this helps).

Thanks

Hi Jon,

Doesn't look like it attached. Can you send it to me by email? Just
remove the online portion of my address.
