I've had XP running fine for over a month, even ran a 24/7 server with no problems.
Today, my friend tried to play Counterstrike, started it up and the computer just locked up.
The screen goes black, my monitor goes dead (as if there was no signal) my cd-rom light is lit, so are my harddrive lights. It gives me the IRQ_is_not_equal_or_less BS. Any ideas people? This really sucks... I can't even reboot the computer. I have to press the power button to shut down then power it up again. At some points after I repower on, it'll give me the choice of booting into several modes. But soon after that it locks up again.
On other blue error screens it doesn't give me the IRQ crap anymore. This time it just lists one of those long ass stop errors.
Crap, it even locks up now when I'm in the BIOS.
