Ok, I'm back on this issue. I have booted on safe mode and the system gets stuck on agp440.sys. if i disable that, then it gets stuck on mup.sys and when disabled, ndis and then after ntfs.sys. I'm assuming that the fact that I get the BSOD in that point is meaningless. I have read your article but I don't see how I can enable the verifier.exe software on a machine that doesn't boot at all. Is that possible editing any file or through the recovery console? I have a Windows XP installed manually on VMware. Can I get any driver information that would help me troubleshooting this? We need to have this to work since we need to test the unattended installation through WinPE. We install automatically other software. Thanks, Miguel

When I talked about unattend installation I meant a Bart PE live CD which installs a fresh Windows XP unattended. I'm not talking about any virtualization of a physical machine here.

I had a user’s desktop which had a wireless card in it and after I pulled all the add-on cards out the blue screen issue went away and I started adding the cards one by one until it blue-screened again. Guess which card it crashed on. You got it… the wireless card.My point is, check all the drivers you have. May have to boot that vm in safe mode, but you should be able to verify all the drivers.

When it boots I get a blue screen of death IRQ lesss than not equal. Anyone had this issue? I can't find any entry on google that points me in the right direction...
