Couldn't Boot Up PC, Replaced HDD And Now Get 0x000000124 Error
Sep 19, 2012
My PC recently would not boot up. Even in repair it would freeze, reinstalling windows did not help and eventually anything I loaded whether repair, setup of windows or straight boot into the OS would result in a BSOD error. I replaced HD and was able to boot in finally and reinstall windows.Everything was fine then I got one new BSOD which was 0x000000124 and my PC rebooted. I googled this and it showed general hardware failure but I can not identify the issue.I ran Hard drive test even though I just replaced it, no problems, ran memtest over night and got 8 passes with no errors.

Recently I have had a load of hardware issues which have caused me to replace my PSU and GPU. After doing so to more powerful units, I went to boot up again and got the error: "BOOTMGR is missing"
I have had this before when I remove my secondary HDD and just try and boot from my primary SSD, but after re-connecting the secondary HDD it would work again (telling me this BOOTMGR is on the HDD, even though the Windows files are on the SSD).
I don't know what to make of this as if I boot from the SSD alone nothing happens and it restarts, and if I connect the HDD and it boots then it goes into the System Recovery and after repairing/restoring still won't work. I think the BIOS settings are correct, with the SATA drives set to AHCI (as I'm 99% sure they were before).
My PC specs are:
Intel i7 980X
Intel DX58SO Motherboard
128GB OCZ Vertex 3 SSD
2TB WD HDD (secondary)
Radeon 7850 2GB GFX
8GB DDR3 RAM
Windows 7 Ultimate

I am getting problem while installing windows 7 on my single partition hard disk. I am using bootable USB drive for the installation. The error I get is "Setup was unable to create new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the setup log files for more information". When I opened the setup log file(setuperr.log), it shows the error "Couldn't find boot disk on the BIOS based computer". Have anyone got this error before

I've been getting a BSOD with the 0x000000124 STOP code while playing D3. It's not very frequent, maybe once or twice in a 4 hours span. It's happened after long periods of playing and after very short periods.
Windows 7 . . . - x64 - the original installed OS on the system? YES - OEM - What is the age of system (hardware)? ~1 year old - What is the age of OS installation ~1 year old

Motherboard died in a custom arcade machine, Replaced motherboard but of course it will not boot. Anyway i can get the serial key for windows "out" of the hard drive? This is a custom machine with no sticker. Also, if by doing a fresh install, will I lose any data on hard drive?

a friend of mine asked me to look at his laptop the other day.It had stopped booting to windows.No OS detected, couldn't boot from HDD, still detected in the BIOS however. It's on a laptop which has 2 IDE connections so I switched the drive to the other and changed the boot order, same problem. The disk was essentially full and he was after a new one so I suggested now could be the time. Anyway the new HDD arrived today, got hold of a copy a Windows 7 and installed it, laptop now boots fine into the new copy of windows, everything is running OK but he needs data off the old HD. I thought the new OS would be able to access it but it isnt recognised in my computer. It is still recognised as the secondary drive in the BIOS and in windows drive management but cannot access it.Drive management can see it and says the device is working properly but it wont initialize, wont turn offline and any access attempt comes up as an I/O error.It has win7 and all his data on so formatting to just save the hard drive for storage isnt an option (just yet).

My existing dual boot winxp/Windows 7 mirrored configuration appears to have issues. I ordered a SSD hd today from newegg. Question: new install, or just re-image the SSD? If I do new install, do I have to have a authorization from Microsoft? I purchased this Windows 7 Professional 2 years ago...

Recently I went to restore my netbook-Acer Aspire One Happy 2. Well I clicked save user data to C: drive, for me a first time user of a netbook...didn't know that if I clicked that and was using a different windows 7 edition from the OEM. That a different windows 7 edition data couldn't be saved. Now, whenever I boot up my netbook, windows will try to install on my computer but gives error:
Error message: Windows couldn't complete installation. To install windows, restart the installation.
System Specifications:
Pre-load: Windows 7 starter
Os using before system restore: Windows 7 Professional
CPU:Intel atom N570 @ 1.66ghz
Graphics card: Intel Gma 3150

I finally got my Windows 7 boot/startup/shutdown/readingmail/scanning etc. working as I like and now am getting signs that the solid state drive I'm using for my C disk is recording errors and needs to be RMA'd. I have nothing but Windows files on C: and have a Raid 1 pair of drives as my file library (pictures/docs etc) and a NAS unit as the archive.I am wondering what's the least painful way to swap the C: drive without having to reinstall everything. I have a product called Drive Clone Pro installed that loads at boot time to give an option to restore a partition but I've never used it in that function so am a bit nervous and would appreciate any other options.

I had Windows Vista and I upgraded using the 'clean install' to Windows 7. I had been experiencing BSODs (blue screen of death) and I thought a re-install, or an upgrade would solve those issues. However, I continue getting those BSODs now with Windows 7 as well.I can't quite recall the stop errors and names, but they were mostly IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I also had 'memory management' sometimes.Recently I powered on my computer and realized everything was running slowly, and I've noticed the BSODs have stopped. I ran everything, anti- malware, virus, spyware programs and they found nothing. I ran memory diagnostics and it came up with nothing. There's nothing really on this computer to be slowing it down since I haven't fully replaced all my files and it's a new OS.The only thing that found anything out of place was after running SFC /scannow, the CBS.log file says this in several places:
[code]...
What I could understand from that is it's saying that a file, called msdrm.dll.mui, is corrupt. Apparently it's in the 'en-US' folder (assuming). It also says on the last line, 'file is missing'.Now, I've replaced from the actual Windows 7 installation CD, the file msdrm.dll.mui in the en-US folder, and in another folder that had the same file. After restarting, the computer still runs sluggishly.My question is, why would the system file still be corrupt even after replacing it from the installation CD? The CD is fine, no scratches or anything like that, and it's virtually new.Also, could my system be missing something that the file msdrm.dll.mui needs to function properly? (I ask this because it says 'file missing') What can I do about this system file to fix it?Note: I looked up the system file msdrm.dll.mui and I read that it's needed for system performance (and performance right now is my issue so I'm guessing this is what's making my computer run slugglishly).

you know when you have 2 folders with the same name and the computer asks you if you want to replace it, keep both and such ? well, I did that to a very important folder that was on my external hard drive, now I don't know what to do� is there any way to recover the folder to its version before I replaced it?ps: information - I replaced using a mac OSX Lion, but I can use any softwares for windows since the folder is on my hard drive not on my laptop - also, they were photos, which I edited with photoshop, so maybe there's something I can do in photoshop, maybe? - it wasn't deleted, it was replaced!

Dunno why this is happening but for some reason the programs Quicktime and Adobe Reader are taking on the icon of some other random program in my task bar. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling both but it didn't seem to work.

I'm running Win 7 Pro 64 bit, FF is primary browser. I have a Verizon FIOS network. I've been getting the following message when I boot up:"The RAS DLL couldn't be loaded. If you don't have a modem installed this is a normal situation. If you use a modem, check that the RASAPI32.DLL is properly installed. Due to this reason, the options related with the modem will not work.This alert can be disabled in the General Options tab." I don't have a modem. Could someone tell me what General Options tab this is referring to so I can disable this alert?

Windows 7, Home Premium edition
I was experimenting with DPI Scaling and changed from 125% to 150%. Didn't like that so returned to 125% and when I returned to the desktop, all of the program icons had a generic icon that appears to be overlaid. Haven't been able to find anything to return the icons to normal.
Looks like this: Would like to go back to the program icons.

Rig crashed due to a failed PSU --> Replaced with new Corsair AX1200 and now the Win 7 Ultimate 64bit is not recognizing the 12 gb Corsair Dominators (shows only 4 gb). I've searched the forums for this issues and the common responses was - to go to BOOT Advanced Options and uncheck the maximum memory. The Dominators are fine because they are detected by CPU ID. The MOBO is only showing 4 gb as well. I tried the 12 gb memory modules in a friends computer and it works fine!

I have an Epson Workforce 840 printer. I replaced the black ink and the cyan with refillable cartridges and reset the cartridges. Everything printed fine. Then a month later, the magenta and yellow were running low so I replaced those cartridges and reset those with the rest of the replacement set I installed earlier that included the black and cyan. I checked the print levels and all of the cartridges are showing as full, both on the printer's display as well as from my computer (I am printing from my Mac Powerbook and my kids' Windows 7 laptops). I then did a nozzle check and a print head check, and now only the black prints out. I try and print a lined/ruled paper from the printer's onboard control panel that should print in cyan and it comes out blank.

My motherboard is an Asus M3A78-EM and I have been using the system with the built in lan rated at 10/100/1000 mbps. The socket seems to be going bad so I tried replacing it with another internal card. They only had two to choose from at Office Depot were rated at 10/100/ mbps. and the other which was called D-Link DGE 530T which had the same specs as the motherboard so I got it. I've tried more than one cable and it works but is much slower did I buy the wrong thing to be running straight from a Wild Blue modem or, are there some settings that can be changed to speed it up I just run the one computer. D-Link DGE-530T Gigabit Desktop Adapter 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI 1 x RJ45

I'm using Internet Explorer 9 and I've been trying to download a file I need. However, it keeps giving me the message "The publisher of this program couldn't be verified", with options to "Open" the file (which doesn't work because it's an incomplete file; I guess it blocked the download), "Learn more..." which is useless and "Cancel". There's no option to download the file, even though I know I can trust it and it's a file I want.

I started up my laptop and every now and then I this message saying 'following process doesn't work anymore: ttxgyhtq.exe'. Then, just now, I got this other message saying this process couldn't be ignored any longer along with these specifications: proces-id=0xd00 (3328), thread-id=0x1d90 (7568). Giving me the options to terminate this process or to cancel. This is seriously bugging me as my anti virus couldn't find anything either.

I own an Asus F3E series, about 4,5 years old.Yesterday, as I was browsing the web, windows 7 crashed and I restarted the system only to find out that I couldn't get past the logon screen.After several tries which lasted several hours I decided to try system restore using the hidden partition. After I managed to Install vista (at first the installation kept failing on the first restart), I tried logging on.Sometimes it would get past the logon screen BUT after that I only saw a blue screen (not to be confused with bsod). After waiting for some minutes the system restarts.Safe mode won't work. It will crash on loading and will randomly restart or a bsod will come up. So, I can't access my pc in any way.
