[pchelpers] Re: BSOD

Here is the official Microsoft blurb on that error. I note that even 
'though they point out that it is a driver error, they neglect to tell 
you how to use their driver verifier program to figure out which driver 
is causing the error.

<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315249>

To use driver verifier go to Start, Run, type in "verifier /all", and 
click OK. This will set driver verifier to check all of your drivers on 
the next reboot. When you reboot, if a bad driver is found you will get 
a blue screen with information about which driver is causing the problem.

Now, reboot into safe mode. Go to Start, Run, and type in "verifier 
/reset". This will stop verifier from running again on subsequent reboots.

Update or uninstall the bad driver to fix your system.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
