Okay, my specs are below, heres my problem.
Whenever I play a dvd, everythings okay,but if I put a cd in afterwords, BSOD with this stop message : 0x03E A thread tried to release a resource it did not own. Ive had this dvd situation before, but I had a Voodoo 4 at the time and it was a different stop message. I did get a solution for this, but the message was different.
This is a clean install.
Would up[censored] my bios do anything with the GF2 MX. Im currently at BIOS revision 1004.

RMS functions are new to Windows 2ooo and this text offers part of an explanation:
RSM will interfere with legacy applications. By default, RSM binds exclusively to all media changers on the system. This will break applications that expect to access these changers through other methods. All legacy applications that are changer-aware must be reauthored to access changers through RSM. Disabling RSM control of the device might allow the application to function, but this has not been widely tested and will not be supported by Microsoft.

DVD software and Windows internal DVD media library are still active and repel CD-ROM attempt to media control.
This could be attempted:
Right click My Computer, choose Manage, open Removable Media, Physical locations, choose DVD-ROM, right clik, choose properties and make desired modifications on General and Components tabs

Thanks, but Ive fixed it. Applied the UDF latest version, and got nVidia's Det. drivers, and the problem went away.

It would still be advisable to get the latest A7V bios 1007 as it contains many fixes over 1004. Starting with 1005b there was a fix that stopped most lockups with nVidia and Matrox video cards (though not mine of course) and in 1007 there is a fix that solves the long in the tooth conflict problem with the Promise controller that plagued anyone who wanted to use that and put certain types of cards, mainly audio, in slots 4 or 5. I have tried all the bios's 1003-1007 and 1007 is the best so far, but there still are improvements that need to be made.

Yup, I did that too.
That bios flashing from within Windows was great.

Arg, don't ever flash your bios from within Windows! Even if it's Windows 2000!!! AAAAAHHHH!!! NIGHTMARES!!!!! NIGHTMARES!!!

Nothing, never done it myself, but I've heard plenty horror stories about Windows crashing right as the bios is being updated. Or something in Windows causing the bios to corrupt. I think it should be common sense to any semi computer illiterate person not to update your bios from within Windows.

I have never heard of anyone up[censored] their system BIOS from within windows before. For video cards and other adapters/devices, sure, just not the system BIOS. Always DOS, baby. The only exception that I have had has been with Compaq servers (ROMPaqs) where you can update the BIOS from *within* the BIOS. Now that's REALLY trick.

Hey, Clutch, this system I updated was an Asus A7V. The mobo CD with it includes both a dos program (AFlash.exe) and a Windows app to update the bios. I figured, that would probably be the safest route, as far as user error was concered.
Anyway, the new bios really smoothed some things out, and may have fixed some annoying BSOD's. They were nothing other than irritating at worst.
Never heard of bios update horror stories. This is the first mobo Ive seen that has this software included. I didnt think it was too risky.
Oh,well.

Welp, if it came with a utility to run the update from within windows, then somebody must have a lot of faith in it.

I also have an A7V. Still, believe me it's not a good idea. Always flash your Mainboard's bios off of a DOS/W95/W98/WME boot disk.
