Default Bizarre Win2000 OS problem

I have two bootable hard drives, both have Win2000 installed.
I have 2 external hard drives attached to the computer, a Maxtor and a Western Digital.
When I boot off of the first (C) drive the computer crashes with the BSOD message: NO_MORE_IRP_STACK_LOCATIONS

When I boot of the second (D) drive, no problems at all.

If I replace the Western Digital drive with another Maxtor external drive, I can boot off the first (C) drive with no problem, and the second as well.

In summary, there seems to be something about the first Win2000 OS that is crashing the computer, but only when a Western Digital external drive is used.
(Actually, I get the same problem with a digital camera hooked up to the USB port as well)

Any ideas? Reinstalling the OS on the first drive isn't what I'd like to hear.
