You may want to get some hands on help, if you continue to have problems. See 06: Invalid Opcode Fault on this page. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/150314 Also, Jack's web page may be some help. It's an excellent ME resource...

I tried to make sense of the microsoft page (even before I posted) and just couldn't do it. I also tried every fix it on Jack's page that I thought might tie in (again before I posted) so at least I was on the same page as you. Thanks!

I could tell you'd researched this problem extensively. Sometimes a bootlog will show a problem with a driver. Another thing I'd try is booting to Safe mode and checking Device Mgr. for duplicate devices. It's easy enough to check. 'Dups' don't show up in Normal mode. If there are duplicates of a device, they should all be removed, then reboot. Windows will detect new hardware and reinstall the drivers, as long as they can be located on the drive. Anyway, good luck getting it all sorted out. :) Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: Video Driver Errors Wednesday, November 22, 2006 at 1:28 pm Posted by Kelly (67 messages posted) I did check the bootlog and everything seemed up to par. I'll give the duplicate devices a try. Thanks again for your help! On Wednesday, November 22, 2006 at 11:55 am, Carol J wrote: > >You're welcome, Kelly.
