CM8330.DRV@0006:0000196c.

Whenever I try to go on to AOL, this message comes up. WAOL caused a general protection fault in module CM8330.DRV at 0006:0000196c.

What does this need?

It means something(waol) is causing your 'puter to crash.Get rid of anything having to do with aol and it'll stop.For sure.

Spark, that's not helpful & isn't even right. Fact is, alittle searching on the net shows Cm8330.drv is the culprit. Cm8330.drv apparently is a very buggy driver associated w/the Onboard Sound Pro chip. Brobb, all I can suggest is using search engines on the Net, like: http://www.google.com/ http://www.dogpile.com/index.html
and search for cm8330.drv
Possibly a driver update might help -- the search above will lead you to them.

I forgot to mention that I have SoundBlaster Gold. Does this make a difference?

[BFlurie]

Brobb, Soundblaster Gold shouldn't be using that driver. Go into your BIOS and make sure the On-board sound is DISABLED -- you'll need your mobo or computer manual to do this.

Hello There,

Cm8330 is the sound driver for mostly pc chips motherboards, also known as houston, alton, compuware etc.
You say you have a sb, is it possible that you have a soundcard on board? If so you need to disable the onboard sound either thru the bios or a motherboard jumper, and then remove the driver.
