I finally had time to write it down.
 
STOP: 0x000000E1 Work_Thread_Returned_At_Bad_IRQL
 
Address 80421FB0 base at 80400000
 
Datestamp: 3ee6c002 - ntoskrnl.exe
 
 
 
Does the error message mean anything to anyone? It was the reason I asked about multiple devices sharing IRQ's.

I downloaded the debugging tools from microsoft, but have never done a debug before. I typed in
 
 
 
kd> ln "Address"
 
 
It says use positive decimal value

Will dumpchk.exe for Win NT 4.0 work with 2000 Pro? If not is there a dumpchk.exe for Win2k? I don't see it listed on the Win2k Resource Kit download page.

Well, I'm having no luck. It says it can't initialize the dump file. Is there another way to trace the address to a driver?

You will need to set it to at least a kernel dump, and preferably a complete dump. Look for it in the System Properties -> Advanced tab...

Can anyone make sense of this? I am very new to debugging. I am still going to try and play around with this. But anyone with debugging experience would really be helpful.
 
I just tried an LN command like so:
 
> ln 80421FB0
 
and it said no symbols found. Going to try and find some symbols heh. Thought I downloaded them a month ago, but maybe I am mistaken. Any help is appreciated.

Ok some good news I guess. I downloaded the new debugging tools and it works much better. Have it set to download the sybols I need on demand. This is what I got when debugging the dmp file:

As you can see it said to find the guilty driver do an "ln" command. Which I did and it came up with nothing. I don't know where to go from here...
