I've recently bought a Yamaha UW500 USB Soundcard for my new Dell Inspiron 8100 laptop running Windows XP. I managed to get the audio and midi running with Reason v1.0.1 on the laptop, but when I installed Cubase VST/32 v5.1 R1  I started to get blue screen errors when turning the Yamaha box on...
 
The thing is that the UW500 worked perfectly with Reason and the problem has only come about since I installed Cubase. Even after uninstalling Cubase & Reason and the drivers for the Yamaha and then reinstalling them all, I am still getting the blue screen error.
 
Although there are no XP specific drivers for the UW500, I've d/loaded the win2000 and ME drivers, but the problem still happens. I'm sure it must be something to do with Cubase as there was no problem before I installed it...
 
I've isolated the problem to the actual USB Yamaha Midi drivers, as if you disable them in the Control Panel, the audio from the Yamaha works fine - enable the midi drivers again and the blue screen pops up. The error message that is displayed says :
 
"A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
 
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"
 
It displays some other info, but that's just the precautions it reccomends you to take...
 
Has anyone got any idea what's going on here?
 
Any help would be great...
 
Cheers,
