    Test software first. Reinstall the drivers from the cd and if that doesn't do it get the ones off of the website. Shouldn't need to post before trying this. :D

    Im using a 4 gig card from my psp in it right now, no blue screens. However, I was getting some earlier. But i believe that is from the video card. Does nTune automatically change settings? I installed it to look at the gpu temps.

    10Ten and HalfHalo, what video card firmware are you using? And do you both have nTune installed?

    Half- did you have the BSOD's before or after installing nTune?

    Sorry, I can't help much since I don't have mine yet. Can only speculate... :cool:

    This could also be related to the RAM issues explored in other threads. I used an SD card for all of the pictures in my review and for the drivers for the WiFi NIC I also used SD. I never tried the Pro Duo, but based on my experience it is probably a software issue, or a RAM issue. Keep in mind that the BSOD was originally implemented to cut short a bad driver before it ruined your hardware, that may be happening now.

    10ten92- did you get the reader working? After my previous posts on here I got my c90 and this is the first time I have tried the MS in the reader. Mine is doing the same thing- works with SD cards but as soon as you put a pro card in you get a BSOD with the following:

    <code>"Bad Pool Header"

    Technical
    0x00000019 0x00000020 0x86e4baf0 0x86e4bb2*(cant read my writing :rolleyes: ) 0x0a060003</code>

    Bad Pool Header can mean anything from memory conflicts to nachos stuck in your cpu.

    I tried another driver (which I think is the problem) from here and it works but you cannot eject it like normal and they are always in My Computer as the MS and the SD (i think).

    So anyone have any ideas? Remember, we are only having problems when it comes to using Memory Stick Pros and, in my case, Memory stick pro duos w/ adapter.

    Also, it is a royal pain in the butt to physically remove ANY of these cards. Not thought through at all... :(
