Yes, there is another one out there with the accursed BSOD 0x8E(0x5) error, with
a reference to the horrible WIN32K.SYS file...
Basically the computer system is BRAND NEW but there have been some issues with microsoft
xp and the motherboard optical drivers, which have been resolved and may have nothing
to do with the problem. Basically, as a student, I have downloaded Revit2009 form
the Autodesk site (now 4 times)... and each time I run it, and make a new project,
it BSOD's me.
This, is starting to...frustrate...me.
I KNOW it is not a RAM issue (Memtest twice, Miscrosoft Memory Diagnostic, switching
modules), nor a Hard Drive issue (done the tests as well)... and as the system is
less then a month old I dont see you it owuld really be anything hardware nor heating
(I mean Ive got a ton of fans seriously, and the Q9300 processor is one of the cooler
ones on the market). Ive done the chkdsk cmd thing, renamed win32k.sys to win32k.old,
disabled the opitcal drivers that had previously stuffed everything up, updated my
nvidia drivers, checked the event viewer (which showed no errors remarkably)... and
Im at my wits end.
Any ideas on what could be causing the problem would be greatly appreciated.
