Windows XP Home, BSOD, Windows STOP Message IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, STOP: 0x0A
I have an Inspiron 2200 laptop with Windows XP Home SP2 and everytime I shutdown I get BSOD "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, STOP: 0x0000000A (0X000000B0, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x804EE357)" . Â The system boots properly and runs fine. The system shutsdown normally and says Windows Shutting Down then the BSOD without restart (restart is not selected). I have checked Device Manager, System Information, and everything I can think of with no problems shown. Â The Event Viewer does show the following errors under System Events:

When I run in Safe Mode and shutdown then I do not get the BSOD. Â I have used MSCONFIG to deselect all non-windows services and all startup programs then start Windows normally - then shutdown and still I get the BSOD. I have run a full scan of system using Norton Internet Security 2007 and Spyware Doctor and found nothing. I have run Registry Mechanic and still get the BSOD. Â I have checked the Dell Support site for new drivers and have made sure that all Dell Drivers are up to date. Ran Microsoft Update and all updates are installed.
I have installed WinDBG and Symbols but not sure how to use it. Â
I have restored back to a point where I was not having the problem and still get same BSOD.
I have ran the Dell Diagnostic Utlility and found no problems.
I have owned this laptop for over a year and never had this problem and I cannot think of any programs, hardware, or drivers that I have installed right before this problem.
Please let me know if there is any info that would be helpful. Appreciate your help. Â Â Â

Thanks for your help I have already read these links. Can you help in using WinDBG or some way to read the minidump file to see what is causing the problem. I have already tried using System Restore and Last Known Configuration. Like I said it will shutdown without the BSOD when in Safe Mode.

Thank you all for your help and I am going to split the points between all three answers. Â All three of these aswers are correct for this problem and I believe are an excellent reference for anyone with the same problem.
I found the conflict that seems to have caused my problem. When I installed Windows Update "KB925902 MS07-17: Vulnerability in GDI could allow remote code execution", and then I also loaded "HOTFIX KB935448 Certain third party applications may not start, and you receive an error message when you start computer: Illegal System DLL Relocation," Â it was causing a conflict/problem with VirtualDrive Pro. I tried uninstalling one or both updates to solve the problem but I still got the BSOD 0x0A, with both the update and hotfix installed again then I uninstalled VirtualDrive Pro and I have not gotten the BSOD again.
I forgot to mention how I know that VirtualDrive Pro was the problem, I ran Verifier.exe and restarted my computer and got the following error:
IO System Verification Error in fcdabus.sys (WDM Drive Error 21f) [fcdabus.sys, Syst1920 at F8271920]
Then I googled "fcdabus.sys" and it is part of VirtualDrive Pro.
Problem finally solved, thanks for your help.
