It is strange though that XP Home works great, but XP pro does not...
That is beyond me...
Just wait for the official SP1, update all your drivers, that is if you want to keep the Pro version.

No BB all my computers are custom built as in FastGame Custom Computers. I build custom computers for people in my area (34 to date) and out of the 34 only three have come back , 0ne Win 98 machine that had a bad IDE cable and two XP PRO machines , one was getting the NV4 infinite loop & the other was a DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL that I was able to fix.

To be fair to this thread and to XP PRO in general I must add that the XP PRO I'm using is an evaluation issue so maybe these problems are inherent to this model of XP PRO ? if so it's certainly not my intension to sway one's view of XP PRO , nor do I feel I have the power to do so (sway one's view) I'm just stating the facts from my experience with the model of XP PRO I'm running.

Anyway this thread and the response from all of you , has given me inspiration to go forward...I went looking for drivers for my modem. I found a driver thats in between the XP in box driver and the latest up to date driver. So far I'm surfing & running a few net based programs that in the past would've given me the 0x000000D1: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL by now...so far so good , knock on wood I still need to work on the DMA issue.....

Bottom line to all this , I find it odd that in the same box XP Home has no issue's what so ever and XP PRO does...Oh Well

Thanks to all
