Can't Figure Out Bluescreen - Thread About Minidump
Mar 17, 2008
Found this forum on trying to decipher a blue screen, but I'm pretty bad at diagnosing them.I read a thread about a minidump, and located that last dump from my blue screen and attached it to this post.My blue screen occurs when:1) I'm watching a video on Media Player Classic and all of a suddent the video goes black. The player then freezes if I attempt to move it/do anything with it. 2) After the MPC freeze, I can't select anything. I have to alt tab to be able to click/move anything after that.3) I then kill MPC via [X] and End Process or Ctrl+Alt+Delete and Kill Process.4) Any attempt at then watching another video after that with Media Player Classic blue screens my computer (and it doesn't stay up for me long enough to read it, I forgot where to make it not instantly reboot on blue screen).

My "run" command is missing from my start bar and I can't figure out how to get a CD to run. Also, when I click programs, there are 3 columns of programs, but I can't see the 3rd one (it's off the screen to the right) and can't get the window to move to the left.

After all the troubles I have been having with this pc, I've finally got everything working the way I wanted it to work with the exception of one thing, my screensaver. I can't figure it out. I have it set to run after 5 min of me not being on the pc, but after it runs for about 10 min or so, it stops working as if someone moved the mouse. I've left it sit that way for hours thinking that something just vibrated the mouse or something and it never comes back on. It will come back on only if I move the mouse or strike a key and let it sit for the 5 min, but then it's the same all over again. I've tried different wait times and different settings but nothing works. Any ideas?

I've been getting a BSOD, and I can't seem to pin down what might be causing it. I've attached the minidump to this.

A virus I had caused a bluescreen desktop and Norton found the virus but couldn't do anything about it, so I deleted it myself. After that the screen was gray. I went to properties and all it showed was the path to where the image the virus displayed was. How do I get my old properties back?

My computer is in a reboot cycle, always asking the standard "boot windows normally, safe mode, last good known configuration..." It loads Safe mode fine. When looking at the minidumps it points to 'ntkrpamp.exe.' When I look that up I find a lot of hits about the RAM. I have 2 sticks in and I've tried swapping and using only one etc. with no luck. I was able to get the computer to work once after forcing a scandisk /r, but after rebooting it got stuck in it's cycle again. The minidump also says:ERROR_CODE: (NTSTATUS) 0xc0000218 - {Registry File Failure} The registry cannot load the hive (file): %hs or its log or alternate. It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.

I am having a problem on my dell laptop insprion 8100, its running windows xp.The last few days it keeps resetting itself, I then get an option to upload a report which I do, I then get an error message I have tried loads of things now, virus checks, dell system check disks, and reformatted & then replaced windows still no luck, I thought it must ne a virus.
I have searched and read a few people thought it was firefox but I have not even placed that back onto the computer but it still resets. I do see a blue screen b4 hand but can't read what's on it before the laptop resets. I hope someone can help as everything pointed to hardware but the dell disks pointing to software

Normally I can get by these on my own, but my friend is having frequent BSoD and I'm very unfamiliar with this one.
Information:
Gateway MX3701
-Windows XP
Probably caused by : ntoskrnl.exe ( nt+22f13 ) Minidump attached. (There were several, but they were all the same. This is the most recent one.)

I've put this thread in the XP forum as the problem is related to XP. XP is an OEM version and I only have a recovery DVD.I restarted my computer after installing some updates and XP wouldn't load. I tried it in normal mode, last known good configuration and safe mode and none of these worked. I then tried to load the system recovery pre-installed on my computer

It has been bugging me; I have a pentium 4 2.4 Ghz running Windows XP Pro and I do a lot of number crunching. If I want to 'multitask' by clicking another program icon or aplet anywhere on my screen, it usually takes about thirty seconds to respond. My other machine is a PIII with 933Mhz and Windows 98SE. I get a second program to come up in under 5 seconds, no matter how busy the CPU. I was told XP was 'truely multitasking' since there was no DOS to overlay, was this all hype? I know that memory and background tasks can affect this, but my real question is this;Is there an Administrative or setup function that tells XP 'How' to manage programs, like Windows 98, (you can set the pc to Server, or Workstation mode (or was it desktop;

With much help,we did a system restore but since, I can't save my passwords & sign in on my favorite forums etc. I have clicked auto complete in tools, options, content but it still keeps deleting the cookies w/o me doing it? Any words of wisdom or direction would be helpful. Can email me at bonjer94@rogers.com too.

I just got a new computer, and it's all used parts, except the hard drive. Since I've been using it, there has been odd bits of lag at random times. It doesn't matter what I'm doing, it will lag. It happens every few minutes or so for about a second, then everything works again. When I'm listening to music, or watching videos, it will skip horribly for a second, then resume playing. It's REALLY getting on my nerves, cause I record music, and its messing up my tracks. Even as I type this, its lagging... More frequently than before, actually. Any idea of what it could be?

I have read many of the "which AV?" threads and I see that Avast, AVG and Panda are all quite popular here.I do not, however, see much discussion of Trend Micro's PC-cillin, BitDefender or Kaspersky. Are those not popular for some reason, or are the others favored only because they are free?I really don't mind a reasonable annual subscription, but I do want a light footprint and effective security.

After long, hard fought battle against various ailments of my computer, My operating system decided to not run anymore. Of course after all this I decided to finally break down and buy a new computer (besides my machine was about 7 years old), but I do want to salvage some data from it. Now after doing some research, I read about the whole repair install and from this board even,I was wondering if any of you have tried this, how well it works,

I am having a frequent crash problem in WOW. It happens at random times and I get a BSOD describing kmixer.sys as the culprit.I ran Memtest for about 11 hours and didn't get any errors, and I have also been playing Prey and Battlefield 2 which doesn't cause any problems either. I think that should be the main stuff, I just did a fresh XP install about a month ago and have plenty of paging space.

I've looked at over 20 related forums on this site, all which haven't solved my problem. All I found useful was the turn off auto update trick that seemed to have brought my minimum usage down from 15 to 0-5.My computer reports free of malware, spyware, and viruses. I use Norton Antivirus, Spybot, Adaware, Panda Activescan, and AVG Anti spyware and have no processes running.When CPU spikes, only possible associated programs are services.exe and svchost.exe, but they only go to 20 at most. System idle process reports normal at 98-99. I'm using Sensors View Pro, which tells me my CPU isn't overheating because it stays at a consistent 3 degrees Celsius. I tried resetting the BIOS, that didn't work. I checked the IDE controllers in device manager to see if they had the correct transfer modes, which they did. I tried updating my MOBO drivers. I can't think of anything else I've tried at the moment.
The biggest thing that stumps me is that my computer isn't sluggish until I start gaming. I only play Battlefield 2, which doesn't require much resources to play and only sucks up about 400 mb of memory. The thing that aggravates me is when my Frames per second average between 10 and 25 and everything gets really REALLY slow. At first I just thought is was a problem with my gaming, but then I realized the bigger problem that my CPU jumps up and down like a heart monitor. I've attached my HiJack this log just in case
I really appreciate it if anyone can assist in solving my problem. I've really done a lot of research not just on this website and results are still inconclusive obviously. It's driving me crazy because I feel like I've tried everything so I feel it must be a hardware issue and then I don't know why it would be...GOSH! Thanks in advance to those brave enough to wrestle this monster!

I have been getting error message: stop 0X000000EA Thread Stuck in Device Drier (Q293078). I have tried disabling device drivers, but I can't seem to find the driver that is causing the problem. MS says it does not know what device driver and is looking into problem. Is there any software that can identify corrupt or bad device drivers?
