Thanks Gary, I appreciate your response.
I am fairly new at this stuff, so please forgive this question: Why
would anything be at dispatch level? The problem occurs in the Miniport
initialize function, which should be passive level. Surely opening and
reading the registry should be a passive level operation, right?
Thanks,
John

John,
Did you take the 0x0000000A bug check code and look at it in the Help
for
winDbg? that shows it to be IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. One good reason for
this
failure is that 8049a95c is at DISPATCH_LEVEL and tried to read
e10088ac
which is probably in page-able memory.

Subject: [ntdev] NdisReadNetworkAddress = Fatal System Error
Hi,
I am porting a WinNT4 driver to Win2k, and at the same time splitting it
into a miniport and intermediate driver. In the intermediate driver’s
MiniportInitialize function, I attempt to retrieve the MAC address of
the network card I’m talking to. In order to do this, I call
NdisOpenConfiguration to get a config handle. I then attempt to call
NdisReadNetworkAddress. During this call, I get this error in WinDbg:
*** Fatal System Error: 0x0000000a
(0xE10088AC,0x00000002,0x00000000,0x8049A95C)
Break instruction exception - code 80000003 (first chance)
A fatal system error has occurred.
Debugger entered on first try; Bugcheck callbacks have not been invoked.
A fatal system error has occurred.

Any idea why this might be failing?
