    I have a Dell E6400, Windows XP Sp3. I updated bios, reinstalled the latest drivers, everything is newest. The laptop works perfectly undocked and docked. Whenever I undock the laptop the mouse and keyboard stops working or I get the bluescreen saying Multiple IRL Complete Requested. This looks like a driver issue. There is no bluetooth nor nothing in the startup.

    Did you install Dell's Notebook System Software for the laptop? Make sure you have that, as well as the latest chipset drivers.
