Greetings everyone. I have found many good answers in these forums and hopefully i can provide some of my own in the future. Today however I seek answers. I have 1000s of standalone and computer based systems deployed stateside and internationally. Unfortunately in the last month or so I have at least 2 PC-Based systems that BSOD all day long. The average uptime is 2-3 hours sometimes much less. Specs: Motherboard: Asus P7P55 LX Processor: Intel Core i5 Graphics: NVIDIA 8400GS Capture: Dual NV5000s with Single Addon Each DVR Software Version 7.7 OS: Windows 7 Professional PS: 650 Watt Ok so after analyzing the dump files. Occasionally I get a random driver listed as the issue but 95 times out of a 100 its IRQL_Not_Less_Or_Equal ArgusV.sys or ArgusA.sys. I have hundreds of these with the same specs and same disk image that as far I know are not experiencing these issues. Any ideas? If you need any further information feel free to ask.

I know Aloha by Radiant Systems has this feature integrated as do a few other POS systems. Outside of direct integration you would need to some clever port forwarding trickery I would imagine.

With the latest version 7.7 I have had success using port 587.

The one that seems to be the worst is all analog while the other a demo dvr is occasionally a hybrid with 1 or 2 IPcams.

Off the top of my head I have aprox. 60 identical machines that are not exhibiting the same issues. They are dedicated and not overclocked in any way with clean install images of Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit. My first thought was to dedicate IRQs to the cards but IRQ Sharing and the inability to assign IRQs since Vista threw a monkey wrench in my gears. I did prioritize the IRQs through the registry that they were assigned but at least 5 or 6 other devices were also sharing the same IRQ so that didn't really do much except give them a little extra SHARED priority.

You minunderstood me. There is one fan for the hard drive, one fan in the back and a third large fan on the side panel. I was just singling that fan out as that is almost as dedicated and optimal a fan as your going to get for cooling a HD.

Just one drive a 2TB SATA which is mounted directly behind and centered on a fan and 16 Cameras
