Software/Driver or Hardware issue?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

I tried the repair install that was suggested to me. I tried using an updated
driver and a previous version driver with the repair install. I have tried
running safe mode, last known config which all give me the same thing - Error
and reboot. Its the same error every time.

A problem has been detected r ...

DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

first time ...

Tecnical information:

*** STOP: 0X000000D1 (0x00000030,0x00000007,0x00000000,0xF84989A0)

***viaraid.sys - Address F84989a0 base at F848E000, DateStamp 4063e304

With every thing that I have tried it gives me this error at the same place
everytime. Is this indicative of a harddrive hardware issue or is it the
driver? I have also lost the ability to boot into the backup drive as well.
That started when I updated the driver for the main harddrive. Any thoughts
of how I can fix that too?
Thank you
Brett

bfritze,
Have a look here;
'Stop 0x000000D1 or DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL'
(http://tinyurl.com/3h3at)
Check www.viaarena.com for updated raid or 4 in 1 drivers for your
computer. Error:"viaraid.sys"
Best,

I have already tried looking for and using an updated driver. It did not
help. Maybe I am missing it but I am not seeing anything on the site that
helps.

If the drive was bad would it give the same kind of error message?

Oh, I almost forgot, this just started happing out of the blue. No new
programs/hardware was added, it just gave a BSOD while sitting idle and then
started the reboot loop
