Bsod Error 0x00000024 - Bad RAM Corrupt Ntsf Files
Aug 28, 2009
I bought a bare bones computer kit (2,actually-- the other one is working fine) and have been running up against 2 diff bsod errors. The first error I encountered was 0x00000050. Symptoms: Computer stopped working, flashed bsod, couldn't reboot. It would appear to start, lights would come on, but screen would remain black and wouldn't get that reassuring little beep. If I turned off computer and waited 20 min or so, then it would start up again and work for a short while before getting bsod again. I tried reseating everything, making sure plugs were plugged. I pulled out one of the RAM then reinstalled windows xp after reformatting drive. Everything seemed to be working great!
To test and see if it was the RAM, I pulled out the working RAM and replaced it with the other one. I booted up and immediately got BSOD with different error message--the 0x00000024 one. It would restart, start me on the screen saying it encountered an error and which mode did I want to start in. No matter what I selected, I would get the bsod error. I put in the 'good' RAM. No change. I put in the other RAM so now both were in. No change. I put in the Windows XP disk and selected repair. It is now running chkdsk /r. did putting in the 'bad' RAM cause the disk error? It's a little late now to pull out the second RAM, but I'm worried that I'll still end up with an issue because I have both in there. After running this, should I run it again with the 'good' RAM only? or is there a different issue entirely going on that I should check?

computer has a BSoD, Stop error 0x00000024. Many of the guides on the Internet told me to run " chkdsk drive: /f " in Cmd. The problem is that I CANT go past the BSoD to access Cmd, even in safe mode. It is a Windows XP Home Edition.

The computer I am working on is a Compaq Presario SR1020NX running Windows XP Home Edition. It connects to the internet via a Linksys WMP54G adapter. It tried to install Windows XP SP3 and it failed. While the update was trying to work correcting the changes it made it froze so my b/f powered it off. It rebooted just fine and he was on the internet for a little bit and then it stopped working. We recycled the modem and the router, I reset everything. Tried to uninstall and reinstall the adapter and nothing worked. I contacted Linksys and we tried to use WZC to connect to no avail. After troubleshooting a little more we determined that it had to do with the updates that were just installed on the pc. The tech suggested removing all the updates that were just installed and try again. I tried...but that is where everything went heywire. I uninstalled the first update and rebooted.....then got a blue screen flash up that said autochk program not found - skipping autocheck and then went to an endless boot cycle. I couldn't boot in safe mode, tried last known good config and nothing worked.

A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. If this is the first time you seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again follow these steps: Disable or uninstall any anti-virsus, disk defragmentation or back up utilities. Check your hard drive configeration, and check for any updated drivers. Run CHDSK/ F to check for hard drive corrpution, and then restart your computer. Technical Informtion: *** STOP: 0X00000024 (0X00190203, 0X86F3B848, 0XC0000102, 0X00000000)
It said all of this. I cant uninstall anything because this error comes up right after it says windows. I already tried safe mode, start from the best mode where it work and etc. It is not workin. i already tried the F8 steps, tht did not work either. and i dnt knw wat they are tlkin about when they say run CHDSK/ F. ummm yea so i need alot of help. Hopefully someone can walk me through of how to fix this. And also i do not have the window xp installtion cd or disk. I was wondering where u get tht from because when i was lookin up how u fix this problem most said u need this cd. So pretty much the basic of my problem is tht i have the BSOD and it is 0x00000024 error and i can not log on or even get to the log on part.

My desktop currently boots, but before starting XP displays a warning that the system was restarted to protect from data loss after an unexpected start or system failure. All of the options (safe mode, safe mode with command prompt, safe mode with networking, last known good configuration, and start normally) don't work, they all lead to a short start-up and then the system restarts. I turned off auto-restart on system failure to see the blue screen that would tell me the error, and the error I got was "*** STOP: 0x00000024", which from what I've researched usually has to with a corrupted ntfs.sys file but I'm not sure. I tried booting the Windows Recovery Console from the OS choice menu and that goes straight to the error, and booting the System Recovery disc lets me start up the process, but when I press "r" to run the normal fixes (that don't include wiping the drive) the process goes nowhere. It starts, but after finished the loading bar it goes to a solid baby blue screen.
I direly need my files off of the hard drive, so I'm not really looking at a full system recovery as an option, I just need something that'll buy me enough time to transfer most of the content on the hard drive (around 160 gigs) to an external hard drive.
I've also tried testing both sticks of RAM by removing one and then the other to see if one is bad, but the error still persists.

I read previous threads. My problem(s): Hard drive checks out. Problem started with "unable to defrag due to system files..." Found what I thought was problem software, tried to remove it, it froze up, I attempted to cancel it, I shut computer down. Start up gave 0X00000024 (0X00190292, 0XBA4D9840,0XBA4D953C, 0X804EF920). I tried booting from Windows CD. When I tried to get recovery console, it asked for admin. password. I don't remember ever setting one. I attempted to recover or reset by methods on "tweaking with Vishal". Didn't work.

I'm running Skype (the absolute latest stable release with auto updates on) on my XP sp2 machine. Every single time i use it however (I use video chat), my machine BSOD's on me within 5-30 minutes of usage. This happens even with voice chat only. I get a bsod error message pointing to tcpip.sys most of the times but sometimes i also get a random message at bsod.I'm using the tcpip.sys patch that was made by lvllord i think that uncaps the maximum number of half open tcpip connections. I did this for my torrent clients. None of them hang the system even when running 24/7.

I was recently in the middle of doing a chkdsk /f when it froze at 2% for almost an hour.... So I did a hard reset and now I get a BSoD with "Stop error: 0x00000024" which I'm assuming has something to do with the ntfs.sys file? I do not have my original XP installation disc and I cannot boot into safe mode (BSoD also.) The only thing I have is an Ubuntu live CD.. Anything I can do to fix it?

My friend got a blue screen with error message saying; A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. If this is the first time. Technical information: *** STOP: 0x00000024 (0x00190203,0x82346610, 0xc0000102, 0x00000000)
She can't get into windows at all. When I turn on her computer it goes to a black screen that gives me a choice to boot in safe mode, safe mode with command prompt, last known good configuration. It is Windows XP Dell Laptop. I've tried them all, everytime it just goes straight to the same Blue Screen with same message.
She doesnt have a recovery cd with her.

Everytime i boot my comp i get the same things happening. I let windows load and get a BSOD just b4 i get to my account logon. The BSOD states: STOP: c0000218 (Registry File Failure) Registry cannot load hive (file): SystemRootSystem32ConfigSoftware or its log or alternate. Corrupt, absent, or not writable. Ive tried to work around it by using my Windows XP Home SP2 disk and booting from that but then i get stuck in the loading process of the disk saying that: aic78xx.sys is corrupt press any key to continue

Last year I installed Windows XP on my pc. During the installation it ask me to choose ntsf or fat 32. I made a mistake I think and chose ntsf. I know the system was fat 32 when I bought it with Windows ME installed. This computer has not worked well since I did the new install. Is it possible to change it back to fat 32 or do I need to do a new install?

I have a HP Pavilion a250Y running a Pentium 4 with WinXP Home.
The "installed" 80GB HD has had it's boot sector scrambled and will no longer boot up. I installed a second 20GB HD from a previous HP computer that I now have up and running with Win XP Home. I want to reformat the 80GB HD and would like to temporarily store data from this drive onto the 20GB HD. The main concern I have is that the larger drive is formated in NTSF and the smaller in FAT32.
Questions:
#1 Can I store the NTSF data on the FAT32 drive just to keep it protected with only the intent to transfer it back to the 80GB HD after reformating?

I just built a new PC for my dad and was installing XP home and it was partially done copying the files to the hard drive, then it got an error saying the ntsf.sys file was messed up and it shut down windows to prevent damage to the system. Then I rebooted thinking it would want to reinstall an OS, but it just loads to the first screen where it displays your video card type and it says
Bad BIOS checksum. Starting BIOS recovery...
Checking for floppy...
floppy not found!
Checking for CD_ROM...
CD-ROM found.
Reading file "P4P800SE.ROM".
Start Erase...
Start Program...
Flash Failed!
I couldn't get to the CMOS settings during the power on, so I manually reset them by taking out the on-board battery and switching the jumper on the mobo to reset them then replacing the jumper to its normal spot and put the battery back. After doing this, when i boot up it still says Bad BIOS checksum. And i have no idea what to do. I'm guessing part of the problem is that windows is partially installed.

My computer was getting old, freezing a lot, and just being annoying so I thought I would just give it a clean sweep. I don't have a CD so I did it by using winnt32.exe. I reinstalled and everything was complete and then when my computer rebooted I get the same BSOD error over and over again. This error happens at the Windows XP loading screen.

Okay, here is my story. Around early august, I built a new gaming rig pretty much all by myself. All the parts cost nearly $800. But another guy did a few things for me, and set up the BIOS.Anyway,I installed a bunch of drivers on some cd's I had, and it looked like I was good to go. Anyway, from then to now, I have been through BSoD heck, among other problems.
The USB's killed 2 of my flash drives,and an ipod.I don't know how, but it defidenntly isn't a coincidence all of those things died.Anyway,I get BSoD's in the most random times,it happens a while I start my pc up. I can barely play games like Bioshock because of this problem.the error message that usually pops up on the BSoD is DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.

Im using an Advent 7049 Laptop and over the past few months my 7049 started to come up with the BSOD with various errors and sometimes it shuts down, i just ignored these and put it down to installing stuff id downloaded, so i got rid of the programs and once or twice it would still crash, i decided to do a full recovery yesterday and all ive installed is a firewall and antivirus and i was listening to some mp3s and it shut down!!! These were the last 2 errors i got -
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Stop 0x000000D1 (0x92453BE8, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0xF80A00EA)

Recently my computer crashed due to some driver faults. I tried updating some drivers from Genius Driver Professional 2007 and ran a few setups for the chipset, NVidia driver, and monitor. Well all was well until I rebooted. When I did so the resolution was at 800x600 and 8-bit color. Went around looking for a way to change back to the plug-and-play monitor, but it just faulted with a BSOD.Well I booted up to only read "Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: WINDOWSSYSTEM32CONFIGSYSTEM." It directed me to use the Repair CD and use the recovery option, but when I use that I get a BSOD* after I enter "1" for the recovery process so I can't use any commands. I tryed to repair it, but get the same result.I've googled this similar problem and couldn't find a solution. I saw possibilities of taking out my SATA HDD and putting it into a 2nd computer to fix the problem, but my second computer has Vista. Is it possible to fix it this way?

My laptop SONY VGN-NS140E will not start the windows set-up/Fresh Install scenario. After the drivers get loaded and says starting windows it goes to the BSOD error Stop 0x0000007B, I figure this to be a MBR virus or corrupted boot sector. So I wiped the disc with Boot and Nuke 2.2.6, showed no errors. Tried again with same result. Ran Disc repair with same result. NOT the XP disc for sure as I have installed in different systems with no problems. HDD was running Vista SP2 when problems started. Ran bootable virus scan and stated MBR errors. Different software packages report that the drive is fine but still cannot partition/format drive.

So I've been getting random crashes and restarts in win xp sp2. I turned off the auto restart and copied down the information. At the top it says:
MEMORY_MANAGEMENT
Then the stop code:
0x0000001A (0x00000781, 0xC664408, 0x00000000, 0xE128C000)
I took out one dimm of ram to see if that did anything.

I hope somebody can help me, please excuse my lack of pc skills!I am getting BSODs every day, usually 2 or 3 when booting up pc then pc runs fine for rest of the day. BSODs have varied but typically (but not always) IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL with STOP: 0x0000008E or STOP: 0x0000000A. Also, in Device Manager, Ports, Communications Port (COM2) I have a yellow exclamation mark, Code 10 error.I am not sure if these issues are linked.I know it could be a Ram issue but I have run memtest86 with no errors reported.Besides I am reluctant to replace the Ram or motherboard as I wouldn't really know what I was doing.

I'm getting the BSOD when I'm booting up my PC, and there are lines and such on the screen. It's the following error: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA 0x000000050 (0xF8A33DBC, 0x00000000, 0x8052B8F8,0x0000000000)
I have a Dell laptop, Inspiron E1705. I'm using Windows XP, Service pack 3. When I run it in safe mode the following is across the top of the screen:
Windows XP (R) (build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.090804-1435: Service Pack 3)
It BSOD'd the other night after I was browsing the internet. My computer was acting really sluggish, and I restarted it. Then I got the BSOD. I left it for the morning when I re-started it, and it started fine, for a few minutes, but after a minute or so I got the same BSOD. This happened several months ago and I fixed it by opening up my PC and re-setting the video card. I did it again and this time it didn't help any...........

I'm running XP Home SP2 on an IBM desktop OEM install. I think one of my kids may have delete some criticle files.i found a bunch of family jpegs and 2 cab files in the recycle bin. I restored all the files but have been having slow performance. I am unable to send large emails without getting memory errors if i try to access Device Manager i get the following error:MMC cannot open the file c:windowssystem32devmgmnt.msc. This may because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficient access rights to the file. I have adminstrator rights and have tried logging in as another admiinistrator. I've reinstalled SP2 but that didn't help. Short of reinstalling XP (which would be a PITA)

I've been having a problem with getting BSOD's for a long time now (assuming you don't know, bsod = blue screen of death). For the first couple months I was ok with my computer randomly crashing like this but I started to get tired of so I wrote down the errors I was getting, which were basically all STOP and irql_driver errors, so I figured I would update my drivers and things would start working better. I did that 5 days ago, and now the messages have just changed.
Before, when I used to get them there was either no files listed or three. They were win32k.sys, ha10kx2k.sys and ntfs.sys. The last two traced to either my graphics drivers or my sound drivers so I updated both of those. Now I'm starting to get totally new files, being Klif.sys and bcmwl5.sys. I haven't looked these up yet but will soon. Now, these errors occur at ANYTIME, and I'm not kidding you. Sometimes I come back to my computer after it's been idle for hours and there's a blue screen sitting there (I turned the timed restart off so I could write down the errors). Now, after reading around the internet the only thing I can come to is that my RAM is messed up, but I haven't done a memory check yet (probably should).
Also, if there is any sort of sound playing when I get the BSOD, the sound skips like a record skip and then after 5 seconds starts making the most annoying, high pitched, scratching, static, fuzz noise you could ever hear. Now I've had my computer for 3 years now and these errors started occuring regularly about 8-9 months ago. When I used to get BSOD's infrequently before this period, the sound problem described above still happened, which has led me to believe that my sound card is bad.

Hi everyone, I have a problem here. my comp keeps resetting many times without giving me an BSoD (I unchecked "automically resart on failure" ).

Tried reinstalling windows->no luck (xp pro N)Get this message after installing windows: "The files that needed in order for windows to run stably has been replaced by unrecognized versions. Install your CD to fix". I installed the CD, but no, it still says those files are "unrecognized".
