A 0x8e bugcheck (KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED)
Haven't looked at it thoroughly but the address falls inside ntoskrnl.exe
This happens when I start softice.

Yep, It is extremely slow, IIRC I had some problems with non breaking 
breakpoints ;-)
(I tried a 19200 baud rate serial connection)

Any case, I prefer SoftIce, but if that's not possible than I'll have to work 
something out with windbg.
