Hello all,

I just built my new PC yesterday and installed Vista Home x64 SP2. All went swimmingly until I started to try to OC the machine. After many failed attempts to get it to boot, I decided to stop for now. Upon trying to boot Windows it got to the opening login screen and BSOD. The error code was 3B and the file it was having issues with was ks.sys

I have no experience looking at dump files, and I installed a lot of programs prior to restarting the first time, and before overclocking.

I have included my most recent dump file. Thanks for the help :cry:

To be totally honest, that doesn't surprise me. Whenever I've had issues that are not immediately obvious, it's always those stupid sound drivers. I'll follow the link and let you know what happens, thanks so much!
