Bugcheck 0x000000FE Under Stress with USB 2.0 Hard Disks
View products that this article applies to.
This article was previously published under Q331988
SYMPTOMS
When a computer that is running Windows XP is accessing USB 2.0 hard disks
under heavy stress conditions, you may receive a bugcheck 0xFE message
similar to the following:
BUGCODE_USB_DRIVER (fe)
In a USB Driver bugcheck, the first parameter is a USB bugcheck code that
has the following arguments:
Argument 1: 00000002, BAD_URB. The USB client driver has submitted a USB
Request Block (URB) that is still attached to another Input/Output (I/O)
request packet (IRP) that is still pending in the USB driver.
Argument 2: 8162ea78, Address of the pending IRP.
Argument 3: 81707950, Address of the IRP that is passed in.
Argument 4: 8156db7c, Address of the URB that caused the error.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs because in the NT Kernel two threads try to start an
I/O operation on the same packet.
