Fab Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Unfortunatly I got randomly reboots when I'm using uTorrent or any other torrent client.I don't know why torrent clients causes my pc to reboot sometimes. What would it be ? The Network/chipset etc. drivers ? Would a system reinstallation help ?I doesn't matter how many connections I allow the my system (XP) will crash and reboot at sometime.I'm using Zone alarm as Firewall which should not effect this because I got the reboot also with other firewalls.Is this problem common here?

Ultima Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 When it reboots, do you see a blue screen? If so, write down exactly what the blue screens hows (exact error message, any files referenced). If the blue screen flashes too quickly, then disable automatic restart:Start > Run > sysdm.cpl > Advanced > Startup and Recovery > Options > System Failure > Automatically restart(Uncheck it, and confirm on all open dialogs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 "Driver_irql_not_less_or_equal" = serious networking driver error!Even bad card or bad brand that never bothered to debug their networking hardware/software! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fab Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 It's an onboard Realtek network card. so do you think if i deactive the onboard card and install a new one in a pci slot the problem will be fixed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 If you can afford to test that cheaply, it's worth a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fab Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 i made a error debug of the minidump file and it says that zone alarm crashed...maybe it isn't a hardware failure just a personal firewall that can't handle the torrent client stress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTHK Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 Not using ZA at all, regardless of whether you get crashes with other software, would be a good start. Full uninstall (no disabling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
