Get an update for whatever product that is. Heh. If it was that easy, I would have done so already. :) PORTCLS.SYS comes with Windows XP. It describes itself as "Port Class (Class Driver for Port/Miniport Devices)". From that, I gather it's some kind of library that provides fundamental functions common to most drivers. In short, it could be anything. :-( Sam Cayze's link to analyzing the crash dump looks like it might be what I have to do. Looks moderately involved, given that I've never done that before. Baring a better answer, guess I guess I'll have to suck it up. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
