xp crash problem

[mg6134]

Windows XP is crashing randomly with a blue screen that says it has to dump the memory to the hard disk. The only error discription I see is "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL". It says that this may be caused by newly installed hardware or software. The only thing I
have added is a Rio Karma mp3 player, connected by usb, and the Rio Music Manager software. I installed that last month and the crashes started this past week. Does anyone know what the error message means and what to do to fix this?
