That's the message I've been getting after most (but not all) reboots since I installed my new Audigy 2 Platinum. For what it's worth, at the same time that I did that install, I reconfigured my IDE drives. I had 2 hard drives on one IDE cable and 2 optical drives on another. I had read that it's better performance-wise to have your hard drives on different IDE cables, so I figured since I had to move my drives around to make room for the Audigy 2 drive anyway, I'd go ahead and fix that too. My OS drive and CD-RW were already both masters and I left them that way. I just swapped the DVD-ROM and the 2nd hard drive. Anyway, when I first rebooted, XP recognized the DVD-ROM, CD-RW and soundcard as new hardware and prompted me to install drivers, etc. I only did so for the sound card since it was the only truly new component. Any ideas on what's going on? My system seems to function fine, but getting that error message is unnerving. Below are the details of the error message. I'd appreciate any tips on how to fix this. I'm running XP Pro, by the way. Thanks. BCCode : 1000008e BCP1 : C0000005 BCP2 : BF802478 BCP3 : F25488D0 BCP4 : 00000000 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 1_0 Product : 256_1

Odd... I got the same error message after installing my Audigy 2. But since the initial install I have run the "Auto Update" feature on Creative's web site to update my drivers and now the message has stopped. Just a note: if you use the Auto Update feature, you have to run it and reboot several times. It kept finding new updates each time I re-ran it.
