Dell E6500 bsod when undocking
I have a Dell E6500 that is getting a BSOD when the user undocks it. The error code is 0x00000044 (0x8576008, 0x00000064, 0x00000000, 0x00000000). This is on Windows XP SP3. Suggestions?

We had tried the different docking station previously. No change. Also tried updating video driver, chipset driver, and bios. It still gave a BSOD on undocking, but a new code. This time it was 0x0000008e (0xc------5, 0x0022a82d, 0xa72d8c64, 0x000000000)
If still under warranty call Dell
Otherwise, it could be a motherboard issue

Oddly enough, a day or so later, the user got a dialogue when undocking that they had not received previously asking if the wanted to save the new settings. And, presto, success!
Thanks!
Thanks!
Try a different docking station, and check that docking station on a different laptop
2) If not hardware then get the latest Dell drivers and see if they are any help.
I hope this helps !
