Unmountable_Boot_Error With Blue Screen On Start Up
Jul 21, 2005
I just bought a brand new Western Digital 120g Hard Drive. I am trying to put it together with some other spare parts to make a computer. The mother board isnt too old, it a 1.2 gig pentium 3 I believe. When ever I first installed the hard drive, I tried to install windows. When ever windows is finished setting up, the computer restarts, windows starts to load, and then I get that awfull blue screen that reads "Unmountable_Boot_Volume" blah blah blah. I can get it into safe mode, but that is it. I have tried everything on this newsgroup, from loading the service pack, changing things around in the bios, chkdsk /r, chkdsk /p, fixboot c:, and a couple of other things. I also tried the lifeguard disk that came with the hard drive.
When i turn on,first Windows screen appears,then a blue screen blinks,then hp screen,then a blank page with cursor on the top left,then a screen with the message"we apologise for the inconvinience but Windows did not start successfully.there was a hardware or software problem.I tried to run it in Safe mode, Windows normally,last known configuration but no luck......Then someone suggested to Get into the Recovery Console by making a Recovery CD with ISO image but the machine is not responding to any of it.Is it with CD/DVD ROM drive or any major hardware problem???...I ran a self hard drive test and it seemed fine
I was playing a game and I rebooted my computer. When i went to start it it went to the a blank blue screen before the account screen in the beginning of XP. I know i can restore to new but i will have lost so much information that it would take about 3 months to retain it all back. It says it can not find operating system. I need help in a serious way. all advice and solutions are requested.
When I start the computer, it asks if for the choice of Safe Mode, w/ Networking, w/Command Prompt or Normally.
I've tried them all and if I try it normally, it won't get past the XP loading screen. It's loading and then it flashes a blue screen for a second and then restarts the computer again.
I tried pressing F8 at boot and selected 'Disable automatic restart on system failure' and this is what I get
I even tried using this http://forums.techguy.org/6669592-post28.html to get to chkdsk At boot, F12, chose CD/DVD, but still nothing, I even tried disabling boot from +HDD, FDD and LAN from the bios setup menu to see if it works and this is what I got, it just keeps going on and on unless I enable boot from +HDD
XP won't get beyond a 'blue screen' since I attempted to update the IDE ATA / ATAPI Controller drivers. The update went as planned, until I selected the best version. XP then restarted my computer and a 'blue screen' appears refering to 'atapi.sys' as being the problem.I can't get XP started in any form of Safe Mode by accessing 'F8' during startup. The only part accessible is the Bios.
I have a Gateway 450SX4,Ser.#0027460659.Desktop on Windows XP.

I've got an IBM R52 Laptop it's running Windows XP and is a few years old. Just the last couple of days I've been having trouble getting it to start - I get the Blue Screen and when I finally do get it going the System Error message. There are several such ERROR Events which say the source is Dhcp there are also some Event 57 ftdisk.If anybody has any ideas about what I may have done to create this problem, please respond. The only thing I can remember changing in the past few days is starting to use a USB headset. I noticed this afternoon that when I unplugged the headset instead of going to the Blue Screen again - the computer went forward as usual.
i am using a toshiba satellite with windows xp sp3. I got a blue screen and my laptop crashed right away. When i restart my laptop the start up took very long. Im not sure what i did. But i remember changing my antivirus from eset to panda then to eset again. Putting back eset didnt solve the very slow start up so i decided to unsinstall it again and now i dont know what to do. please help. i dont know if i got a virus or what.
Computer started running slow and then locked up for no reason. Upon trying to reboot, I got a boot disk error, then a ntldr error. After running my setup disks I get the blue screen Stop: 0x0000007f ( 0x00000)unexpected_kernel_mode_trap.
Can I start a bit vague here as I know nothing about computers.I have a Mesh computer running Windows XP. I upgraded to Vista but ended up with a reformat and reinstalling XP clean and the computer was running fine. For no reason at all (ie no changes were made), Windows suddenly wouldn't load and I got a blue screen with KERNEL-DATA-INPAGE-ERROR (or similar).There was a bit of a delay as I took out the stock Seagate Barracuda 250Gb SATA and couldn't get hold of a replacement so replaced it with a Samsung Spinpoint F1 750Gb which it wouldn't auto-detect for love nor money. My neighbour claims my RAM is OK and the Samsung detected OK in his machine.I therefore took out the Samsung and bought a new Seagate Barracuda 320GB SATA drive and fitted that. The BIOS auto-detected it and I tried to install Windows. It allowed me to create a partition but then proclaimed it couldn't format the disk. I then got a blue screen with PAGE-FAULT-IN-NONPAGED-AREA which variously blamed the partmgr.sys file and the setupdd.sys file.
When you press Enter to continue it says <Setup disk not recognised> or something like that. Sorry to be vague but I'm having to try and remember this in work.Now because the machine has had problems with two hard drives, I'm fairly sure it's not the HDD itself but much beyond that, I'm completely lost.MESH support haven't really been much help and have recently sent me a BIOS update file which I am lothe to use because I'll probably screw the whole thing up and I think I need to resolve the problem before adding any variables...or maybe just buy a new computer.Any pointers would be good. I have no technical knowledge I'm afraid and obviously no access to the internet from the machine itself. I have no boot disk either.
Ok this error will only pop up only about 3/4 of the time I attempt to go into Windows. Right after the windows boot screen finishes I'll get a blue screen of death for windows xp, and it says a bunch of numbers and stuff then at the bottom there is a file called tbcwdm.sys. This just started happening in windows, and I can't write the code down because the screen will dissapear in a matter of seconds and reboot the computer.
I currently own an older dell latitude cpx laptop, its fairly outdated, i know but im currently running it off of my wireless router, i have a d-link wireless-g adapter in my pcmcia slot, but when i boot my laptop with it, i get blue screen errors, but if unplug it and boot it up then plug in my adapter, it works perfect, i know its not a big deal to just plug it n after i boot up but i was wondering.
Recently, when trying to start up my computer, I keep getting a blue screen after it fails to start up. I've tried starting with "last best known configuration" and "safe mode," but both ultimately end with the blue screen and an error message. I've received two on various times trying to start the computer up, essentially stating
I have a laptop with Windows XP Professional SP2.

I tried to boot from the XP CD, and it does the whole blue screen thing until starting windows then it just hangs up. When I boot in safe mode, or attempt to, it gets stuck on system32driversagp440.sys.
Presario v6000 with windows XP professional. When I try to start windows I get a blue screen with white text stating that window terminated unexpectedly. Then it shuts down and attempts to reboot with the same result. I ordered a recovery disk from HP. when I attemted to install the; I received an error message stating the software does not support this system. I call HP and they claim it's a virus or a computer issue. How do I process to get my system working again? or did HP send the wrong disk?
Getting the blue screen on an XP machine after each solution i have tried. I have replace the ram, cleared the page file, ran chkdsk, and I was doing a repair install and I got the blue screen again. What else could it be. I used a hard drive utility and the hard drive is fine. all 4 sticks of memory can't be bad. I tried them one at a time. I need some help and thoughts.
For some strange reason I am starting to get a blue screen with all kinds of stuff on it that I do not understand. The only way that I could show it is by taking a picture of it.
Computer sudenly shut down, and after trying to restart I received the Blue screen with this error message: Stop: 0x0000007E (0x80000003, 0x805c49B8, 0xf79e02b4, 0xf79dffb0). I tryed to start in Safe Mode, Last Known Good Config. when I attempt to start inn safe mode I receive this message: PAGE _FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA. Stop: 0X00000050 (0xc4b12174, 0x00000001, 0x80537009, 0x00000000). I have Windows XP, and have not installed any new software or hardware anytime recently.
This morning when I booted up, I got a blue screen that had a message telling me something about memory (I think, was still asleep). it told me to start in safe mode.I did that then turned off. When it started back up it was in the advanced options window. I selected "Start normal mode" I have tried to get it to do it again so I could get the codes but cant. I know it showed many partitions plus the message and codes. I am using XP Home with my Dell Dimension desk top. It uses a Celeron 2.53 GHz and 512 Ram. Thank You for any suggestions. Also I delete temp regulary and defrag every week or so but don't know anything other than that as far as maintaining system.

I've recently built a new computer and it works amazingly except for the fact I get a blue screen once in a while I start up my computer. I tried to find a way to take a picture or something for the blue screen but it restarts a second after the blue screen appears. I couldn't get much information on the bluew screen but I remeber it said something like "no_page_setup" or something similiar. If I don't get the blue screen, sometimes my computer just freezes on me

My computer is restarting after 3 seconds when i am trying to start the computer. I am coming to the desktop and i can wait for 3 seconds and then suddenly, blue screen with white text and some red is showed to me for just one second. And the the computer restarts.
I have a dell laptop inspiron8600 with Windows XP and SP2. I recently get the same blue screen error every time i start my computer.IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL STOP: 0*0000000A(0*F89181C0, 0*00000002, 0*00000001, 0*804D9BBA) I ran the dell dianostic test for blue screen errors but everything was fine. Does anyone know the reason for that problem and/or a solution for it.
the computer freezes at start-up on the blue screen that shows the Windows XP logo, and the words "Windows is starting up". I found that I can navigate through this at startup by tapping the F8 key rapidly before that screen appears. I tried the System Restore to a date earlier than the administrator's work, but no help. Is their a repair or restore procedure that will cure this problem?
Turn the computer on, it starts to boot, I see the compaq splash screen then the blue windows is starting. Then it just restarts the process over. I have tried to repair windows: The F8 to last known good config & F8 safe and it just restarts from both of those as well. Win XP SP3 Currently doing this: You can boot from the cd and press R to go to the recovery console. Your best bet is to try running Checkdisk. So once in the recovery console, type chkdsk /r and press enter. It could take from 20 minutes to a couple of hours, depending on the repairs it needs to make
I'm gettting a blue screen when i try to start my laptop with Windows XP media. It's saying the registry cannot load the hive (file): /SystemRootSystem32ConfigSECURITY or its log or alternate. It is corrupt, absent, or not writable. I'm guessing I need the windows xp media reinstallation disk, but I can't seem to find it.
