Semi Frequent BSODs On SP3 - Recovered Computer
May 7, 2010
Within the past 2 or 3 days, I've been getting BSODs 3 times a day. They seem to always happen when I'm randomly surfing on Firefox, but I thought this belonged here. They seem to happen after I've recovered the computer from standby mode (I make it go to sleep instead of shutting down and rebooting most of the time) and am surfing firefox. I've noticed that I can do all I want with no problems before sending the computer into standby, but after standby I'm on borrowed time. Maybe I'm forgetting a time that it has shut down on me after a fresh boot, but that seems true.

I left my pc at my apartment on a thursday, came home the following monday, went to turn it on, and , nothing. Blank screen. I cleared cmos, still, nothing. I then tried my psu on another motherboard I had lying around to see if it was working, and, it wasn't. So, my psu went dead in the 4 days that I hadn't used my computer. I then plugged in my old spare whisper series 460W psu(ATX 1.0 i think) and got the system to boot up. Upon loading windows i was greeted with "windows did not properly load last time". So, someone turned on my computer, probably my roomates, and in doing so, they killed my psu.
I didn't mind too much..as I can just rma the psu, and hope nothing else was wrong with it. So, after using my pc for about 10 minutes, i get a bsod. I shrug it off, use it more, 2 hours go by, bsod. A different one. I used the pc for another day, and still more, random bsods. I decided i'd try my older hard drives, as they still had a copy of windows loaded on them, configured to my pc. They experienced the same behavior, bsods, random, and never at the same time. Regarldess of the operation, i could be idling, playing a game, whatever. I know my ram is ok, i ran memtest for 9.5 hours, and it completed 26 loops, all passes. I am curious if my power supply is just old, and is having issues in some manner. I can't test this theory until my new psu arrives.
What i did test last night, was removing my wireless adapter. After removing it, i booted the pc, ran 3dmark2003, 2005, prime95, the 3d programs for an hour combined, and prime95 for 1.5 hours. All the while i was running one instance of folding@home in the background. It only had one hiccup, when 3dmark2003 was first ran, i closed with an unexpected error. The pc didn't restart once, no bsod's, i even left it on overnight, and when i woke up, it hadn't restarted.
I also found a combination of programs that causes a blue screen. If i have xfire open, and i'm in a voice chat, and I play an online game, the pc will show a blue screen and restart. I can play games fine, indefinitely it seems, and i don't get a blue screen, but when I use my usb headset and a game, it crashes. The last time this happened, the bsod showed "driver irq not less than or equal", with a code of 0x000000D1, and suggesting tcpip.sys is the culprit, upon restarting and logging in, as the system was loading drivers/startup programs, i ran into the same error, only it listed ntfs.sys...at least i think that was the file. Regardless, I think i'm having an irq issue. Can i have a driver irq problem? and how to i fix it.i've only got two pci slots, and i've tried using both.

My pc restarted. I thought it was because of an update or something. Soon after, it restarted again. I noticed that the pc was restarting every 20-30mins and when I would login, I would have a message telling me Ive recovered from a serious error. I used the restore wizard, and restored to 4-5 days before I got the problems. I didnt have a problem for about 4-5 days, and then it started restarting again. It still restarts, but now every few hours. I havent dont any hardware or software cahnges in teh last week. Ive only installed PS3 Video 9 and then I uninstalled it thinking it may have been because of that program. I also deleted everything I downloaded in those few days and ran nod32. So should I restore my pc to like a month before? maybe that will get rid of it? Is it software related, or is something lose in the computer?

My Computer keeps rebooting. It does this several times a day. It started about 2 weeks ago. When it reboots it says the computer has recovered from a serious error, and a few click here links, leading me to a .dmp and a .xls file. It doesn't matter what I am doing.
Sometimes I'll click a desktop icon .reboot. Then click a link from my email pop client.reboot. Or maybe I click a link in my browser.reboot. it's not one thing that I do, when it decides to reboot. I unchecked the auto restart button, and got this blue screen.
I have not added any new Hardware or software. I formatted and re installed new Windows XP Pro Sp2 3 days ago, hoping it was software virus related NOPE Is something wrong with my usb ports? The CPU fan is working goot and the temps are good, do it's not over heating.

anytime I am working on it it will suddenly turn off. I mean one second I'm working away and the next it's booting up as though someone flicked the switch off and on again really quickly. When it starts up it shows the message "Windows has recovered from a serious error". It happens when I doing 3d work, burning a dvd, listening to music or even opening a document. It's not and never was connected to the internet.

A couple of days ago my laptop (IBM Thinkpad) began to frequently crash and lock up on me. Ctrl Alt Del would not unfreeze anything so i was forced to just turn it off by holding in the power button. After i would do that I would try to turn the computer back on but then it would stop before the normal startup began and give me the error message of"Resource Conflict - PCI Network Controller in slot 01Bus: 02, Device : 02, Function : 00" My computer runs Windows XP home edition and has service pack 2 installed. I have an Intel pentium M processor 1300MHz598MHz and 512 MB of RAM.

I am getting frequent system related errors in my Event Viewer. Typically those are related to system crashes. Here are four for starters. It is almost impossible to avoid some crashes on a daily basis. I find the M$ help over my head. Where to start?

I've never, EVER, in my whole life experienced any kind of BSOD in XP(sounds crazy I know), but lately I've got 4 of them in the last 2 weeks. So naturaly, I'm really iritated right about now.The first one was caused by tdi.sys and after lots of googling, I downloaded the debugging tool and opened my first ever minidump. Again after a lot of googling, on one forum it was advised that I change the tdi.sys located in::WINDOWSsystem32driverswith the one from:C:WINDOWSServicePackFilesi386
I did and that BSOD didn't happen again. I was soooo happy.

I've been having this problem for half a year now, and I've tried everything I could think of (as an advanced user) to fix it myself, without success. I have kept a log of all errors that I have received and of all solutions that I have attempted, so please bear with me as I try to describe all the relevant details, in the hope that someone will be able to help me fix it.
Ever since I bought my laptop (Acer Aspire 5930G), I have been getting blue screens (BSODs) that seem to be linked with the Intel wireless network adapter that came pre-installed in it. Whenever the WiFi is turned on from the button on the front of the laptop, a BSOD will appear at a random point in time (usually, between a few minutes and a few days after it has been switched on), regardless of whether I am actually connected to a WLAN network or not. On average, I get a BSOD every other day or so. If the WiFi is turned off from the button, then no BSOD ever appears.
The error codes that the BSODs indicate vary, these are just some of what I have received:
- 0x0000007f (0x00000008, 0xbab30d70, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
- 0x0000007f (0x00000008, 0xb8330d70, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
- 0x0000007f (0x00000008, 0x80042000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
- 0x100000d1 (0xa483a671, 0x00000002, 0x00000008, 0xa483a671)
After analysing some of the minidumps generated by the BSODs with WinDbg, the following files were indicated as possible culprits, all of them having to do with Internet connectivity (Intel driver of firewall):
- NETw5x32.sys
- fwdrv.sys
- NDIS.sys....

I've had this ax8 board for some time. Previously, I'd been using an av8. Here's a run down of what I've experienced. With all the default devices enabled in bios, random irq/driver irq not less than or equal BSOD's. Disabled on board FDC, still bsods. Disabled onboard LAN, still bsods. Disabled IDE controllers, still BSOD's. I've tried a pcie and pci card, still bsods. Tried SATA 3&4, still BSODs. I replaced my USB keyboard/mouse with an old ps/2 keyboard and mouse, unplugged my usb headset, and it hasn't crashed since.

I have an Acer Travelmate 2702wlmi laptop that Blue screens at the xp loading screen on boot. It flashes up the BSOD so fast you cant see the error code generated. I have rebuilt the laptop onto a new HDD, swapped the memory out and i still dont know if it's software or hardware causing it ( suspect hardware). After the BSOD, the laptop reboots and just goes round in an endless circle. If i power it down and then up again i get the ntldr is missing message and can use a boot disc to get back i to it fine. Last night i used it for hours fine, and rebooted it several times, but early today turning it on caused all the issues again. If i leave the battery out and run it off mains it makes no difference, checked the fans are running and it does not appear to be hot.

I have been having problems with the computer starting up correctly in the 'regular' windows screen.The latest problem I had was that the computer wasn't starting correctly. It gave me a screen that said something about starting in the 'safe mode'. To my recollection, the words 'last known windows configuration' (something to that effect) was high lighted and it was counting down. It look like it wanted to start up windows, but kept going back to the screen with me wanting to choose a method of startup. After a couple of tries, Windows finally started up.Lately I been getting an dialogue box that says: "The system has recovered from a serious
error."

I'm having hard/software or driver issues, I guess. I get an info box that says: The system has recovered from a serious error. I have sent the requested report to micro. My question is how do I keep the error message box from popping up every minute? I'm looking into the prob with the error but can't take the message much longer.

Earlier this evening my brother wanted to transfer a song to his MP3 player, so I got it all setup for him and ran off for a minute. When I came back, he said the computer had just restarted itself while he was trying to transfer the song. I came back to see the computer had just finished running through the Scandisk/ErrorCheck and was starting up again. When I signed back into my desktop, I recieved a message stating the computer had recovered from a serious error. I clicked for more details and spread the windows out so I was able to take a screenshot of all 3 messages about the error. I attached the picture to this post.We went ahead and got the song transfered just fine afterwards, but when I went to connect to the internet, it wouldn't dial up and said the modem was not there. I went into the Modem settings and it said the "Lucent Win Modem" was not there. This is the one that was setup by default with Windows XP. My Zoom modem will not work for some reason (which is what is currently installed right now). I did manage to fix the problem by shutting things down, removing the modem, putting it back into the PCI slot and starting things up again. In the Modem settings, it showed that the Lucent Win Modem was there and running correctly. I was able to connect fine afterwards. Could whatever the "serious error" was have caused this problem? Is there a way I can reinstall the Lucent Win Modem again should this happen again and removing the card does not work next time? Like I said, my modem is a Zoom modem but I cannot get it going, but for some reason the computer sees that Lucent modem and it uses my Zoom modem to connect just fine.
Can anybody tell me what this error was for, and any ideas as to why the system decided to restart? It just took me a year before I was able to repair my system because it automatically restarted and I'd really rather it didn't start it up again since a lot of money had to be put into fixing this computer.Also, the 2 files listed in the bottom window of that screenshot are not located on my hard drive. I went to the exact location listed, but that last subfolder is not listed in the Temp directory anywhere. I have all hidden files set to be shown already. I also ran a search on the entire drive and there are no such files located on the drive.

When booting up my PC, I am receiving the following error message 'STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure} The registry cannot load the hive (file): SystemRootSystem32ConfigSOFTWARE or its lor or alternative. It is corrupt, absent or not writable'. I understand that the OS needs to be recovered from the XP bootup disk but the OS was pre-installed so I do not have a copy of this.

Lately i've been having some problems with my pc. Some of the programs that i use seem to have an error with it. For example, when i'm using opera a box pops up saying an error has occured with opera and needs to shut down the program (asking me whether to send an error report or not).This is not the only program that does this. Even Media player, bittorrent, winamp, windows messenger, actually its most programs.Sometimes i get an error with 'DrWatson Postmortem Debugger' which causes my pc to lock up.A few times i got a blue screen error. Each time that happens the pc restarts itself and then i get another message saying 'system has recovered from a serious error', again asking me to send an error report or not.

Quite frequently while I'm in the middle of typing an email in Gmail, my computer without warning restarts itself. When I log back in I get this dialog box that tells me the subject title and offers to send to the error report to Microsoft. I'm not the only one who has experienced that. So, what do you think is the problem and how can I stop the computer from arbitrarily restarting itself?

On Saturday I got the first of these. I was on the internet, pressed the back key and the computer shut down without warning of any kind. It was slow to boot back up which it did of its own accord. Then displayed this message, "The system has recovered from a serious error."
