HARDWARE_INTERRUPT_STORM

OSR_Community_User-256 · October 3, 2001, 6:20pm

Gurus,

I’m getting a bugcheck error F2 (HARDWARE_INTERRUPT_STORM). This error
happens in one of the testing machine, another machine never complained for
the exact test. I’m working on Windows XP(2505). The device is multiport
serial board and data rate is 230 kbps. When the crash happens I see in the
softIce (assuming softIce doing OK) window the crash point in the driver is
varying throughout the source code (putting many kdprint etc. in source
code) making it difficult to debug.

Now what is the workaround of this problem?

Whose problem is this: driver, device, XP or motherboard?

Please help.

Regards,
Hakim

This likely means that a spurious interrupt is coming from a device (without
an interrupt handler) that hooks a shared interrupt. RTM of XP should not
generate this bugcheck, but the system will hang indefinitely.
