I randomly get this error message in the blue scrren of
death on my Dell laptop running Windows 2000 Pro:
*** STOP: 0X000000D1 (0x00000016,0x00000000,0xBFBEEAD)
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

*** Address BFBEEABD base at BFBD6000, DateStamp
4104d8fb - vsdatant.sys

Beginning dump of physical memory

I have also read some evidence that it is a corrupt
Scsiport.sys file.

Is anyone familiar with this problem and have suggestions
about how to fix it? I am only a novice techie so please
don't be afraid to be too basic or detailed.
Thanks...
