Running WinXP Pro x64 Edition
1. Can launch Steam, however, when I try to launch TFC I get a blank blue screen (not a BSOD, just a blank blue screen) and the computer is locked up.
2. I had a BSOD Stop Error:
DRIVER_IRQ NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
0x000000D1
sfng64.sys (this is an audio codec driver file)
3. No HW or SW changes in the last two weeks.

I started analyzing the dump file, but I'd have to study up first - debugging is not intuitive stuff. So I'll try another route first.

Finding driver files is always a pain in the arse, but if I have to I'll update.

Any thoughts??

IRQ errors mean you're doing 2 things at one time that can't be done at one time, a VERY rare problem.. sounds like your sound card wants to do something different than what TFC wants to do with the sound card. my guess is to update the sound driver.

That appears to be a driver for Intel on board sound. Is that what you use Question

Check device manager for any conflicts...but since you haven't changed anything, I expect you'll find all is well.

Check your sound device for any IRQ conflicts...tell us what you see. Neutral

Chips wins. I updated the Intel drivers for the on-board sound card and was back in business.
