#160 BSOD during install or uninstall on Windows Server 2003

[Anonymous]

Whenever I try running the colinux 0.7.4 installer I receive a Blue Screen of Death, It says irql_not_less_or_equal.
At first I thought that the problem might be with one of the components. So I unchecked all the components during the installer, but I still get the BSOD.
The operating system I am running is Windows Server 2003 Enterprise.
Any Idea what the problem might be?

I hope: This is a 32 bit Windows?

Try a clean uninstall, than reboot Windows and install the driver manually from this location:

BSOD is better, than simple reboot. We need the stack backtrace. Please try to enable a "minidump", than lets crash again and analyze the minidump with WinDbg.exe, follow steps "Howto use Windows crash dump" from file "debugging.txt":

yes it is 32-bit windows.

Unfortunately When I try to uninstall Colinux, I get the BSOD again.
I have recorded the minidump of this BSOD, but i can't figure out how to attach the file here.

Steve, please attach the minidump file to an email and send it to my SF account (henryn).
