BSOD possibly due to hardware on shutdown?
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

I'm not really one for these kinds of things (notably why I hang around the software/console boards) but I wouldn't mind knowing why this happens.
Every so oftern (It's happened about three times now, twice in sucession), after shutdown windows jerks up a BSOD with a "stop" error code on it. I don't have the stop code, but it does say "IRQL is less or equal", and to be frank, I have no idea what that is bar that it is proberbly a hardware problem.
Can anyone give me an insight into what this is? It's not really critical, but I don't like getting a BSOD when I shutdown at random ocassions.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Wow, I forgot my hardware details...
I'm running;
Windows XP Home SP2
ASUS A7N8X-VM motherboard
AMD Athlon 2600+ 333MHz
512MB RAM
Geforce FX 5200 128MB
Maxtor HDD
Integrated sound controller (On an nForce2 chipset)
SoftV92 Dialup modem (On a PCI slot, enabled but not in use)

that can be either an irq conflict (hardware) or driver problem (software). try moving your pci cards around.

Thanks, I'll look into that then, and I'll say if the message ever comes up again...
