Random BSOD And Variety Of Other Errors
Sep 30, 2010
I have been getting random BSODs repeatedly and a variety of other errors.I am running Windows XP SP3 on a Dell Latitude D820.The BSODs happen randomly throughout the day. I scanned for virus with MBAM, spybot, symantic, microsoft malicous remover, used ccleaner, ran diagnostics and came up wiht nothing.Additionally, sometimes when the computer boots it will boot with inverted colors (or just generally messed up colors) and sometimes when trying to log into the user account it says:"Windows cannot load the user's profile but has logged you on with the default profile for the system.

I've given up.. This problem has been occuring for quite awhile now and I'm really clueless as to what is causing it. I've conducted a destructive system recovery via the copy of windows on my HDD twice, and also from a windows CD. I've ran memtest for both my RAM and HD and both tests always come back OK... The errors occur randomly.. sometimes my computer can stay on for 4+ hours without one, sometimes they appear within 30mins of turning on my PC.I'm a computer newbie, but I wrote down some info from the last blue screen errors:
Quote: STOP: 0x000000D1
SYMTDI.sys - Address BADC3DB7
STOP: 0x0000008E
Win32k.sys - Address BF8011A3 The most common errors I remember included something about either one of the following:
DRIVER_IRQL _NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
I've attatched the minidump files I have since last re-booting my system. I hope I've provided enough info.

My system randomly freezes and sometimes the screen will go blank When i try and start up the system i usually get stuck on the loading screen and have to restart, or the system will freeze as i'm logging in. I get a BSoD with DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL 0x000000D1 (0x000000000 0x0000000FF ) and some other 0x000stuff

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.

It seems you guys know quite a lot more then I do about windows.I was hoping maybe someone knows more than I
I'm having these randomly occuring BSOD's mostly at night time,no intensive apps working,except some p2p progys.I have ruled out RAM,VGA and I think PSU too,and i guess it has something to do with networking.I have some memory dumps I will attach,.I have only these 2 because somehow windows didnt make any more,dont know why though.

I had some problems recently and with the help of one of the TSG locals, I located and got rid of a malicious file.However, I had a problem at that time that I could not resolve, and am still trying to beat it down. Now I am beginning to get random errors I can only run Spybot S & D in safe mode. Progress bar for it will show it at about 39.../56120. Then the system reboots itself, sometimes twice...and sometimes there comes the message that my computer has recoverd from a serious problem I have a similar problem with running PandaScan, it just won't make it all the way through.I know I have tons of stuff running in the background and would like to cut out as many of those as I can, I've just not gotten that far yet.I'm posting my HJT log in hopes someone can help spot my culprit.

Recently i have been having lots of crc errors whilst unzipping files. My initial thought was that one of my hard drives was on its way out. I had checked them all using the manufacturers diagnotic ultility (Seatools) with all testing features and each one, on all drives, returned without error. I thought my suspicions were confirmed when i turned my drive on for the BIOS not to recognise one of my SATA's (a Barracuda 7200.11). After a bit of research i found out that this was prob not the cause of my crc errors as the SD15 version of the firmware supplied with my drive had a bug and causes the drive to go into a hibernated state, a separate issue i'm trying to deal with.After removing this particular hard drive along with Vista out of my system i installed win XP onto another drive temporarily. I am having the same problems with the CRC errors on my other drives which seem to be operating normally. The kind of files i'm talking about are fairly large usually demos or trailers etc in .rar format.
As i understand it CRC errors can also come from faulty RAM. I have recently RMA'd some faulty RAM back to OCZ and the stuff in my system currently is the brand new RAM i got sent back from my RMA. I know this can be causing the CRC errors and occasional random restarts regardless of how new it is so i have checked both sticks individually using memtest86. I only had time to let them do 1 pass each but both came through error free.If any of you out there have any suggestions for what else i can do to figure out what is wrong i would very much appreciate it. Could it be a lack of wattage on the psu causing the restarts? Processor? I'm stuck,

Since I've had my recent reformat and installed my newest hardware upgrade, I've experienced some random Windows crashes.So, I'm getting random and strange crashes while I'm playing games (HL2, WoW), and also BSOD's.All drivers are up to date. Oh, in addition, I've launched CPU-Z to check my setup and it was said that my ram was running at 6400 instead of 8500, why is that? CPU-Z detects that it can be runned at 1033, so the ram is fine, but when I try to change it in the bios, my CPU boots and it says "Overclocking Failed".

About once a day, my system starts displaying random errors. Applications do not work as they should, and my network card is seemingly disabled. The only solution is a reboot. During the shutdown process, the welcome screen is usually enabled, however, when these errors occur, small dialog boxes saying "Logging off" and "shutting down" are displayed. I am pretty sure it's not spyware, as this is a fresh install of XP only a week old.

Alright so heres the issue, I had aquired a Trojan-spy.win32@mx. And i went through the process of deleting it. Which was quite long and annoying. Now however my computer randomly decides it feels like rebooting. Ive ran Chkdsk /f, and even did a non destructive restore. And nothing has helped, so im stuck here in safemode till i can get some help. Best buy wants to charge me $129 dollars to fix it, but who has that kind of money for them to run a few things? SO please guys if you could help it would be great.

This is very mysterious. The very first time each day I start up my XP machine, it boots fine. After that first boot, whenever I boot again, there's a 75% chance the boot will fail with the following message:"STOP: c0000221 Uknown Hard Error SYSTEMROOTSYSTEM32 tdll.dll"
Of course, that means that there's a 25% chance it'll boot fine! If after it fails I keep on trying and trying, eventually it'll boot perfectly again.How can this be? Either there's something wrong with "SYSTEMROOTSYSTEM32.

For the past week my computer has been locking up at random times, now I am pretty dang sure I know the general cause, which would be my own fault -.- I just moved to a new place, long story short, mixed up my surge protector with my standard power bar, rolling power outage hit, turned my computer back on and wham, it randomly locks up...I restored it back to about a week ago, and it seems to work fine (sans a few random freezes upon booting up) Of all the times it has frozen, it only gave me one BSOD

Windows Installation : Various files cannot be copied and/or not copied correctly. Giving blue screen of [enter] retry, [esc] skip or F3 to abort installation. Files constantly failing to copy : cyycoins or something, lots of .chm files, too many to mention. Curious thing is, same problems for both optical drives and both HDDs, varying both for many installations. Eventually I held down [enter] and the files went in, well some didn't but Windows booted fine.
Warhammer Dawn of War : Winter Assault. wh40k.cab is corrupt. Changed optical drives during installtion, installed fine. Could be hardware issue with my cdrom, Same game, when playing will crash to desktop. No error message sometimes, no indication of crash (no freezing or warning sounds or stuttering, just flat out BOOM, .exe gone. Sometimes error message appears to send error report, sometimes doesn't. Occurs while under load
I thought this could again be CDROM issue, with the copy protection not keeping the game running because disc wasnt read right.
Mozilla Firefox : Dunno really. Loaded it up to access webpage. Some survey appeared, then program locks up for maybe 10 seconds then crashes with firefox.exe has encountered error Windows built in message appears. Firefox is unable to load up again due to missing/corrupted .dll file error. Cannot page_read or something. I forget the whole error message. Guess coulda been important to save it to post here.
Whole system reboot. Idle one time, machine just goes down, then starts up again. Flat reboot. Didnt touch any buttons, then once in Windows 'recovered from serious error' message appears. Tells me after sending report its a device driver issue. Changed My Computer options to give the Blue Screen of Death so that the driver is named, nothing, just page_file_read or errors along those lines I know nothing about.
Don't know what is wrong. Hardware issue could be Optical Drive. But then again I have 2 drives, and the errors ocur no matter which one I use, same with the Hard Disks. I'm stumped. Its quite a huge issue. I have nothing on the drives, I backed all my stuff up before formatting after starting to get errors 1-4. I got these errors before format and immediately after. So would indicate Hardware issue would it not Can it be a BIOS problem? Or wiring, neither of which i have altered or been brave enough to look at.

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.

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 will try to be as specific about my problem in general.I am using a Compaq laptop, using Windows XP. I don't know much more than that, but I can search for additional information regarding specs and stuff.It all started one day when I was browsing the internet using the latest version of Firefox. I turned up my volume and the blue screen of death appeared (advising me to seek tech support of sorts).I restarted, and yet again touching the volume yielded the blue screen of death. I tried several, possibly 6 times, and the only thing causing the blue screen of death is altering the volume in any way, including touching the volume buttons, adjusting volume in the volume control and adjusting the wave settings in volume control.
So I ran Spyware Doctor. I do pay the full 40 bucks a year for this wonderful program, and it detected a bunch of freaky looking things. Like adaware, something called virtumonde, and all these high threat viruses and adware, but it wiped them clean. I ran it again, it found 3 more standard viruses that it didn't name, cleaned them, ran SWD again and nothing appeared, so I assume now my computer is free from whatever was messing with me.The volume problem still persists though, and also at random times the blue screen of death will appear (I'm praying now it won't as I type all this or I'll cry).Then another problem occurred. When I try to open a file of sorts, that pesky message appears- windows explorer has an error of some sort, do you want to close it or ignore it?or something to that extent, so I can't view any sort of files now. I am running the computer in safe mode (which still exhibits the risk of a blue screen attack, but I can view the folders properly). Somethings up, what can I do to fix this? Any suggestions? I will try to answer any thing I might have left out.

my computer is weird to the max....here are some problems just to name a few: when running random programs, i get fatal execution errors, i get messages asking to debug random apllications or terminate them, i get messages to just terminate things, i get messages that start coming up whenever i try and open something and whatever i try and open it says it has to close....sometimes my whole screen turns blue with white typewriter font saying i have hit a problem and i need to shut down (blah blah if the problem persists contact blah blah if this is the first time uve seen this error just reboot blah blah) sometimes my computer locks up and i get stupid errors.....they tell me to send error reports, that does no good.....i get them 24/7 too....basically im getting error messaages with lots of zero's / name files in them and my only options really are to terminate things (things being applications im trying to run).....this varies from aol instant messenger, to games, to internet browser, to word, to paint....anything....ive run ad-aware, spybot, mcaffee, ive checked my hijackthis logfile and deleted unwanted things.....ive run chkdsk on bootup, ive run defrag, ive run system restore idno how far back, ive run clean disk, and other stuff.....i think most of these problems have started once i downloaded the service pack 2 package from

I keep getting random crashes and I don't know how to go about diagnosing the problem. Every so often I get random STOP error messages, and from the articles on the Microsoft Support site it appears to be a driver problem, but I don't know which driver. These are the errors I got recently (in order)

The family computer is playing up and to the best of my knowledge the computer in question just simply suddenly stopped working as it should. I am unable to get the 'default' welcome screen upon start up and am getting the logon box where you type in a username and passworld. I know how to get rid of this, user accounts>enable welcome screen - but it will not solve the problem.This is just the start of the problems. I get a whole host of errors which popup one after another.

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?
