BSOD Code: 0x000000b8 / Operation,attach Process, Or Yield Was Attempted
Jul 11, 2008
I did a search in relative to my error but couldn't find a solution from some of the previous thread with the same error code. I get the following blue screen message:Error:A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. A wait operation,attach process, or yield was attempted from DPC routine. If this is the first time you�ve seen this stop error screen, restart your computer.If this screen appears again,follow these steps: Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need. If problems continue,disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components,restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Starup options, and then select safe mode.

I randomly get a blue screen while typing on my keyboard. It only happens when I am typing, never when the computer is left idle.The blue screen code is 0x000000b8. I am running Windows XP Service Pack 2.I did a search on the web and it brings up whole lot of stuff for Win2k.

I'm running Windows XP with all the latest updates on a Dell XPS 410. My on-board DVD drive is an HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GSA-H31N. Whenever I try to load a disk in the drive, it crashes. Insert, hum, crash. BSOD. Also, if there's a disk in the drive, the computer will go into a BSOD before it can boot. I have a few suspicions about Alcohol 120% causing this, but I've tried uninstalling it, and that hasn't fixed the problem. I also uninstalled several other programs (MagicISO, IsoBuster, PowerISO) and not seeing the problem change. DVDIdle might, I guess, be another possible culprit, though I don't know. I would think the fact that I can crash before even making it to the startup screen disqualifies a certain amount of software. But if you think I should go ahead and uninstall a bunch of things again, I will. I've tried flashing the firmware. It hasn't helped. I can't seem to find any new drivers for it. I've tried googling and such, but I haven't found a solution there either. This one really has me stuck.

I am getting a BSOD and the error says: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA STOP: 0X00000050 (0X81000078, 0X00000000, OXF9E129BD, 0X00000002) spooldr.sys - address f9e129bd base at f9e11000, datestamp 469e788d I tested to see what drivers are not digitally signed because I read somewhere to check that and it said that the omci.sys and tcpip.sys are not digitally signed. I am testing all the hardware as we speak with PC-CHECK, the RAM seemed to pass all the tests. I can log in to safe mode and I tried restoring to a previous date and it worked for a while. I was able to uninstall the McAfee Antivirus which I thought might be the problem, but still BSOD...

I got a Blue screen of death error code - 0x0000000F4 (0x00000003, 0x82D9FDA0, 0x82D9FF14, 0x805Fa7A8) which states that a process or thread crucial to system operation has unexpectedly exited or been terminated. I can't reboot after the BSOD as the laptop will just freeze at the windows diskc check area. How do i find out what process was terminated?Furthermore i tried using my laptops recovery disc but the system won't let me run the program.

For example, today when I started the computer it kept shutting off and wouldnt stay on longer than 2 seconds. Then eventually it stayed on, but has crashed several more times since then. Some other things:-Recently my Dvd drive has been disapearing off and on lately (it's showing at the moment, though). -Also my windows updates have been failing lately as well. Even though the BSODs were occuring way before that, it's still odd.

up until a month ago I was able to send attachments with my e-mail. Now,
when I click on the "attach files" button, it continues as if is attaching it
then stops and goes straight back to the main e-mail page. No error message
or anything!I've tried it with different attachments and I've tried by
disableing the firewall.Again, this was working just fine up until a month
ago.

I work from home and need to be able to email. A few days ago I started by getting Script Errors at the bottom of my pages anytime I tried to do anything, but read my yahoo mail. I asked yahoo's help desk for support and they had me check the java script and debugging, and try downloading updated IE. Now I it says Error on Page at the bottom of my screen and I still can't do anything. I can't reply, forward, compose, attach files, delete, or move messages.

I installed Adobe Acrobat about 2-3 weeks ago as part of a CreativeSuite package. I have yet to use it. However, just last night, when I tried to open a folder full of pictures on my desktop, for some reason, it attempted to install Adobe Acrobat. I cancelled the installation (acrobat was already installed) and the folder opened. I've tried some experiments now and it seems like every time I try to open a REGULAR FOLDER or a COMPRESSED FOLDER (ARCHIVE) ... ON MY DESKTOP ONLY, my computer attempts to install adobe acrobat. When I hit cancel the folder finally opens. I haven't waited to see what would happen if I let the computer install it cause I just spent hours cleaning my hard drive so my windows installation is sparkling and I don't want to mess that up w/ 2 copies of acrobat.

I'm using Windows XP Pro and I open folders on my computer with shortcut like "Ctrl + Alt + "Letter key". To get this to work I created hidden shortcuts on my Desktop and under: Properties/"Shortcut" tab/"Shortcut key" Field. I added a shortcut key, by then pressing this particular "shortcut key" the folder attach to the shortcut folder will open. So far so good but once in a while out of the blue these shortcuts stop working all at once, restarting the computer ect doesn't fix the problem, the only way I found the shortcuts will start working again is by clearing the "shortcut key" field under Properties/"Shortcut" Tab then clicking ok, opening up properties again and adding once again the shortcut key on the "shortcut field" Why Do I have to keep reentering the shortcut keys on the shortcut folders for this to work? Any idea what can I do to prevent the shortcut command from stop working on the future?

Running System :~ WinXP SP3 My 1st ( <- Can't count ) post so I d/loaded ESET security suite on 60 day trial without any problems whatsoever. When it came to remove it 48hrs ago I discovered I couldn't re-start my Win F/Wall due to missing ICS (module?), I gave up on that for a while and tried a couple of 3rd party options but got fed up spending more time answering pop up questions (3 in 1 s/ware d/load) so I decided to do a disc recovery.

Windows XP Prof Service Pack 2 Microsoft Intelli Type Wireless Keyboard My problem is simply!!! When booting my computer the keyboard does not become active until windows has loaded. Hense I am unable to press F8 during the boot process and therefore cannot boot to safe mode. To make matters worse there is a F/Lock key on the keyboard which on starting is always inactive.

I am having a problem with XP Pro Freezing during operation. The problem began after installing a Dail-up modem ("DYNEX" MOD# DX-M100) and loading the drivers for said Modem and a windows hardware update for the modem (that failed to install). First I had Blue Screenc ( c0000005 ) and stop errors ( 0X 000000D1 ). I then removed hardware and restored to previous state but continued blue screens. after some checking disabled "Norton antivirus" auto protect and have had no more Blue Screens. However the problem with freezing remains.

I created another user on my XP home edition machine to isolate "business"
Logged on as my alter ego, I needed to open a Visio file. It asked for the master disk, and I proceeded to install (even though Viso is already installed for me to use as the prime user). I got a message that the Administrator had blocked this kind of activity.
How did I block it? And more important, how do I unblock it?

I have Windows XP Home Edition on HP Pavilion dv1000 series laptop. I installed AutoCAD2008 from their web site a few months ago. I found that it immediately slowed down my computer, even though I more than met their minimal installation requirements. After a week, I purchased a new computer to run ACAD, and uninstalled the program (except for the free DWF viewer) from my laptop. My laptop remained really slow. I tried to do the system Restore, but my computer was unable to go back to the date selected. I believe I defragged etc. after the uninstall, but am not 100% sure I did.
When I start the laptop first thing, the time showing doesn't change, even though minutes are passing. It takes about ten minutes from turning on the PC to getting Internet Explorer to open up. Or even to run Solitaire or open Notepad. I wonder if my ZoneLabs Security System is causing some of this slowness. Lately, I've been having to turn off the power to my laptop manually to get it to shut down.I regularly edit and keep my start up programs to a minimum, but include the programs Mozy (backup) and ZoneAlarm Security. I ran HijackThis and the log file is below. I've been puzzled why ZoneLabs has two scanning processes running at the same time.

I started having these problems a few days ago. The main one is that when I try to go to Tools/Internet Options in Internet Explorer,I get the message "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer." I get a similar message when I try to save changes when exiting msconfig. Needless to say, I am the administrator and the only one who uses the computer, so it's not a restriction/permission issue. My problem is that my registry path doesn't match up to what is shown above. After I get to Policies/Microsoft there is no Internet Explorer folder in either of those two paths. If I start from CURRENT USER, the only folder under Policies/Microsoft is System Certificates, and if I start from LOCAL MACHINE, the only folders are Conferencing, System Certificates, Windows, and Windows NT. I tried searching the whole registry for "restrictions" and found nothing. So what do I do now?

At present, I have a screen that keeps saying 'error loading operating system'. To start I had Wn98se, installed WnXP Pro. The files and settings transer wizard did it's thing copying but didn't work upon install. I have 98 start up disk .. but nothing for the XP. (Was having trouble with update downloads / installs from micro.) but over all the system was working fine. I have Norton 05 Premier / goback if I can get to it. I just installed a new hard drive, 'Steup' had identified hd but I never got windows to open. Can't say that I know what happened,, seems to me that it asked about partitions. I do not understand much about that, never have changed or used. My guess, they work like seperators on task bar?? Next I think it wanted to install OS, I figured okay, but why?, it should already have XP on it (old drive) I left old as primary. Then it got to where it was saying it would 'format'. Wait a minute, I know enough to know I'd lose everything, so I rebooted. I've tried a number of time to see if I missed something. I finely decided to open the pc, disconnect the new drive and get back on track. I've tried the 'F8', pays no attention to that. I thought if I could get in to safe mode, I could use my 'GoBack' - which would clear out mistakes or whatever is causing trouble.
I can get a screen that asks if I want to boot from ST32 (my old), from CD-Rom, floppy and SCSI (whatever that is?). I've tried the hd, still get the error. I dont have any start up devices (was waiting to make -trble with the updates yet). So I put my WnXP disk in and same error,, but if I fool around with it (time it just right) I can get it to where it wants to install. "Welcome to setup" it can set up xp. Gives me a partition that looks like what I'd expect my hd to look like, scary part is the free space is the same amount. Have option of 8MB space, that won't work,, tried it . So I'm brave and hit in stall on what I think is my old hard drive. I then get told it has to "format",that's such a nasty word. I have not gone any further. I have a choice of NTFS / 32,, old was 32. Before I go further is there a floppy / disc / download / a tool, that I could purchase to get into safe mode? I thought I'd give my old 98 Norton Rescue floppy a try - nope, but I got what loked like dos prompt. I just didn't know how to move from the A:> to a command that would get me into safe mode. Or better yet, my WNXP I had running. I read here that there wasn't any problem with using NTFS and 32 on same pc. I'm wondering if I have to should I pull the old hd connection (just to be sure), install the new hd get it up and running and then later come back to transferring what I want. OR because my old was 32, stick with 32, and not set myself up for more problems?? I have a full back up on CD of my old HD, would there be anything there I could use to get back into safe. Sorry I'm not better at this,, if I were I'd probably not be in this mess. Could it be I have a bad XP? They been trying to clear up the 'update' thing but nothing has worked.

Within a thread on this page titled ''Windows XP Slow Shutdown'', member ''caktus'' answered the original post thusly:
I beleive applies if the fragmentation may drastically affect the operation of Windows. Regular or even daily defragmenting will [help] keep the machine operating at peak performance. It also means defregmentation time may be reduced form many minutes to as little as seconds.
This has been a question I've never really looked into, but has been on my mind for quite some time, since I had remembered reading that one shouldn't defrag on a continual basis. I just looked under the ''help'' section within ''Defragmentation'' in XP which states:

I recently returned my notebook to the manufacturer due to a failed DVD-drive.They replaced the DVD-drive and the main board, but now the computer is very slow. It takes over 5 minutes to boot-up and the most basic operations take an age.Is there a solution that doesn't involve a full system recovery, as their helpdesk is recommending?
