Hi everyone,

Could you please help me with this problem? I'm recently getting a 'blue screen of death' and now it's coming out more often.

Laptop Details: Aspire 3050, AMD Sempron, Windows XP Media Center

I'm not sure if it's due to overheating, but here's the info mentioned on the blue screen.

DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL

Technical Information:
STOP: 0x000000D1 (0xF79498E0, 0x00000002, 0x00000008, 0xF79498E0)

psdfilter.sys
Address: F79498E0
Base: F7946000
DateStamp: 4436585d

I don't really know what this means, or where the error is coming from. My computer began to restart randomly a few days ago, so I disabled automatic restarting to see what it says on the screen. Whenever I use Windows Movie Maker, or have too many opened windows, it starts to slow down. I can't open any other programs after, and browsing becomes SUPER slow. Then after a while, the blue screen appears.

Could you please help me? Thank you in advance for the help I would get.

Blessy
