I have 4 or 5 year old Win XP Home Tiny desktop computer which is having trouble booting. Basically when booting up, right before the Win XP logo it reboots itself.I have disconnected all IDE devices except for the master hard drive (plus disabled them in BIOS), I have tried a different hard drive in the machine that I know is working and has XP Pro installed. The same thing happens with this hard drive - reboots. This hard drive also has Ubuntu installed, and the machine happily boots Ubuntu to the normak desktop, but for some reason won't boot XP!Also tried a third hard drive in this machine that is working with Win 2000 installed, again the same thing happens.
Next I tried the original hard drive in a working seperate machine which produces the same result again.Also tried removing the RAM from the original machine and inserting a stick of working RAM from my other machine which again makes no difference.All hard drives I've tried have the correct jumper setting (primary master).
Also tried putting the Win XP disc in the drive and booting to that, I get to the menu and try to do a repair (R), but a few seconds after the repair begins the system reboots (this is using the original hard drive).Also tried booting into safe mode, and last known good config on all drivers.The hard drive is being detected in POST and in the BIOS which I have set as the first (and only) boot device.When I turn off the auto reboot upon fatal error, I can see the blue screen of death with error code 'Stop 0x0000007B'.So looks like the hard drive might be knackered, but there must be something else aswell because my two other working hard drives don't boot XP (only ubuntu)
I put in My CD and it goes through the first blue screen (the one where is asks if you want to press f2 to do install drivers via A drive etc) and when it gets to "Setup is Starting up windows" (this is before all the HD formating and partitioning) I get the blue screen. it does not have much info on it all it says is:Stop: 0x0000007B (0XF78D2524, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)
I want to downgrade the factory loaded Vista to XP pro on my Acer Aspire M5640 desktop. I found some detailed instructions on line for doing this, but I don't get very far before I get a blue screen error message while the computer is in the process of booting up from the XP disk and loading the files while in windows set-up mode. It reads as follows: "A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
"If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps: "Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer. Technical information: STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D6524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
I plugged my blackeberry into my computer - it has a new battery, though I don't know why that made a difference - and my computer crashed immediately. After the intel screen it brought me to a black screen with choice to reboot in safe mode, etc. No matter what option I chose, I was unsuccessful - just kept coming back to that screen. After troubleshooting I found my way to the blue screen with the error message stop: 0x00000024 (0x00190203, 0x8AFFA800, 0xc0000102, 0x00000000) and that I should disable virus protection etc. I inserted my xp disc but don't know how to get the system to boot from that.
I have a problem J, I cant get XP to boot up. My pc blue screens mid way through the loading windows screen and then re-sets. I had a GPU hardware failure, after windows automatic installed some software a month or so ago (not sure what it installed as I wasnt using the pc at the time). My pc would not post and the mbos gave a GPU beep error message. I have just brought a new GPU and now I can get to the pc to part load. Tried using my recovery cd, but that only gets half way and then blue screens with a STOP 0x000000c2 error. I think its a driver issue but as Im unable to get into the recovery to troubleshoot further, im not sure what I can do. The only thing I can do is rig up my pc hd to my laptop as a slave, does anyone know any software that can check an OS that not being used on a hd? Is there anything else I can try? I have flashed the BIOS to the latest version.
I had an ELECTRIC POWER FAILURE during the start of Windows 2000 Professional this morning. After it, when I try to restart my computer, it begins to load Windows, but I receive the famous blue screen. The error code is: STOP: 0x0000007B (0x8243D030, 0xC0000006, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE I tried with F8 (last valid configuration, etc of the list), but all give the same blue screen. My repair floppy disk is from september 2007. After it, I installed a second HD for files backup and needed to put drivers for Windows recognize the bigger HD size. All worked fine until the power failure this morning. Antivirus and scan are up to date. Since I installed the driver for the bigger size HD, I cannot more boot through the floppy disk, because it not recognizes the HD. Is there anything I can do to not reinstall Windows?
I was working on my computer, Windows 2000 Pro.I was moving my foot under the desk and accidentally switched off the surge protector.I turned the protector back on and restarted my computer.I get a royal blue screen that says Stop Error.Inaccessible Boot Device.None of the F8 options work for restart, they all say the same thing.I really don't want to have to reformat.
Major virus infection on computer resulted in fdisk and reformat. I used Win 98SE to fdisk and reformat, as I couldn't for the life of me find a format on the Dell Operating reinstallation CD. (could be first mistake)
Used Win 98 SE startup diskette to start system w/CD rom support.
Navigated to D: Drive which containe the XP OS reinstallation. Navigated to I386 folder and typed WINNT to begin reinstalling files.
Start WIn XP setup and began copying files to HD.
Screen shows: The MS-DOS based portion of setup is complete. Setup will now restart you computer. After your computer restarts, WIN XP Setup will continue. Remove floppy, etc.
Computer restarts - did inspection of system, shows Win XP Setup, loading files (drivers, controllers, etc.)
Starting windows - Welcom to Setup: 1. Setup - press enter 2. Repair (using Repair Console) 3. Quite - F3
Pressed enter
Next message:
Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer. Make sure any hard disk drives are powered on and properly connected to your computer. This may involve running a mfg supplied diagnostics or setup program.
Setup cannot continue Press F3
System then attempts reboot, attempts installation again by booting from HD. Then error message:
Dell Deminsion 4600 series p4 processor @2.4 GHz 512 MD DDR SDRAM @ 400 MHz 128 MB DDR NVidia GeForce FX 5200 graphics card 80GB 7200 RMP Ultra ATA HD Win XP Pro SP1 48x/24x/48x CD-RW Drive SoundBlaster Live! w/ 5.1 support
I have looked on MS site for the error code and think I understand that the problem is either a hd controller device driver is not installing from the Dell Reinstallation CD and therefore stops the installation of the software. How I can possibly extract and install the driver setup may be looking for.
Continually getting STOP: 0x0000007B when installing XP on an Acer Aspire E700. Drive had Vista installed. Have deleted all partitions - drive is empty.
I believe it's related to the SATA drive, but haven't figured a way around it, and time is money.
Whenever I attempt to reinstall Windows I receive a stop error warning about a possible virus to instructing me to remove any newly installed hard drives and/ or controllers. I elliminated hard drives disk by disk but was met with the same results. I then elliminated all HDs and my SCSI controller, booting from my XP CDROM.
After powering down during a system restore, my Dell Inspiron 1100 Laptop is caught in the loop that results in the above Blue Screen error. None of the modes work, last known, safe etc.I have read a lot of the posts about restoring that system and am not so concerned about getting the laptop up and running but just recovering the data from that drive - pictures from the laptop.Is this strategy below an option? 1. Purchasing a USD Hard Drive Enclosure. 2. Removing the hard drive from the laptop 3. Connecting the laptop d it to the Enclosure 4. Plugging it into our pc to copy the files. Since the drive will not boot via the laptop, am I right in saying that the drive should be readable as any other drive if connected in the manner above.
Recently I bought a very cheap Acer Aspire M1640-E1150 which came with an MSI motherboard, an Intel Pentium Dual Core E2200, 2 GB of DDR2 RAM, and a 320 GB HDD from Hitachi. The system came with Vista initially installed on it, and needless to say, it was very slow! I decided to do the right thing and go to XP, so I found all the drivers required and I proceeded to install Pro from a disc that I have from a previous computer. As soon as the screen booted up and the system was being checked by the program, the system gave me an error message, before I even got to partition anything, it was initial. I tried to restart, took one of my RAM sticks out, but nothing was working. I even tried to format the HDD through an external drive, but nothing was working.
The error message is "Stop: 0X0000007B" and something about a virus or a software or a hardware being the problem. The system was running smoothly on Vista, and I even formatted the C drive, and I am sure that there were no viruses.
All new system Asus MB core i7 4 gig ram with sata drive. All hardware is up in the bios and recognized. I get the Stop:0X0000007B on install of XP pro service pack 2.
i got a window 2000, that has been used for simple stuff like web browsin, aim ect. and one night it had a hard time shutin down, so i just pressed and help power button, i did same thing next night. well tonight i got the famous STOP: 0x0000007b error (0x8180dc50, 0xc0000032, ect...) error and i was wondering how can i fix this? i found on the other site that 0xc0000032 means that i need to run chkdsk /f, but thats not possible since it wont start
I have a Acer Aspire AM5640-E5520A Intel Pentium 2 QUAD, 2.4GHz with a MCP73PV motherboard and SATA drive. When I try to install XP (which I like better than Vista) the set up acts ok ,loading files, until it gets to "setup is starting windows".. Then I get the BSOD and a message saying STOP:0x0000007b. I have tried to change the bios setting for the HD to IDE but I do not find anything about storage or AHCI. All i see is a place to change raid configuration. Raid is disabled. But i have tried it with raid being enabled.
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
I have seen a similar problem posted previously on this forum. But after reading it i think this is a different problem, so, here goes: I recently bought a new graphic card: Radeon all-in-wonder x1800xl. Installed it on a clean system (did a reformat before i installed). The problem occurs after usually 30-60 minutes of gaming (so far with oblivion, black & white 2). The game freezes for about 30 sec and then goes into blue-screen mode.
The message is as follows: Kernel-Data-inpage-error stop error screen then there are a lot of numbers etc. I have sometimes noticed a slight change in fan noise prior to freeze (speeding up) After reebot everything's back to normal.........
I occasionally get a stop message and blue screen. It happens randomly, sometimes I am just on my desktop with no programs running. Here are some details:
STOP: 0x000000D1 (0x00000008, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0xF3C70140) atinyvxx.sys - Address F3C70140 base at F3C52000, Date Stamp 41f70216
i installed a new printer hp laserjet 4015 from the installation cd. previously 2015 version was installed. the installation went ok and the printing was also ok. system was shutdown normally. the next work day the system rebooted after the login was entered. this was solved by choosing 'last know good configuration' option of startup. however on re starting the same issued erupts. the system xp sp2 boots only when the last know good config option is chosen. the blue screen when opted for shows this error stop: 0x00000024 (0x001902fe, 0xf7a76854, 0xf7a76650, 0xa2c83692)
I've been having some issues with the DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL_TO_ZERO (0x000000d1) as well as IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (0x0000000A)and STOP: 0x1000008e and 0x1000007f.I'm crashing only while playing games. The crashes seem to occur more often if I'm playing a game while running something else such as streaming a podcast. The crashes are also occuring with greater frequency with each day that passes. I reformatted after these started happening, and i replaced my RAM as well, as that seemed the most likely culprit.
I have borrowed a school computer for the summer, it runs XP. Today, when I booted it up, it displayed a blue screen with a stop message. "c0000135 <unable to locate component> winsrv was not found. I have spent the afternoon searching for a way to fix this, but all the windows help sites require you to download stuff, and since I can't get the OS to actually turn on, I obviously can't log on to a website.
I'm working on an HP 530 and when I boot up, it blue screens with a stop code.The code is 0x0000007B So far, I have attempted F8 w/o success, tested and swapped the RAM, and run checks on the Hard Disk.G-Parted can see and partition the Hard disk , but Windows Repair disk can't see the Hard Disk.I have re-imaged this unit and it completed successfully, but when I rebooted, it BSOD'd again.There is nothing in the BIOS to change it to IDE from SATA and the self-test is reporting no errors.
The Technical Information is this: *** STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x00000000, 0xF2F22A50, 0x00000000) I'm getting tired of this happening every day.
Four or five months ago I installed a new HD in my Dell Inpiron 700m laptop. I used Acronis True Image, as I've done previously with my Latitude. Initially, I had some trouble, because apparantly one or two drivers were missing. I found a discussion about this online and ran through the steps to fix the problem and everything seemed fine. A couple days after the installation I received the blue stop error screen for the first time. Restarted the computer and hadn't had it appear again until last week. The other night, it was coming up every five minutes, shutting down the computer.
well i just installed trial version of webroot spysweeper and then i go on to TSG then my computer goes all blue and it says things about dumping files on disk or something
I built a pc back in Apr 2005 and it has been a nightmare from the 1st day. Ive reformatted twice only to encounter the same problems. BLUE SCREEN CRASHES AND STOP ERRORS. This occurs during every single task I attempt. I am not even able to run a virus scan without it crashing. There are a few yellow ?? in the system device menu box thingy but the drivers wont install. It seems that every blue screen crash has a different code and always end with system dump.
I was able to use ad-aware SE to remove the spyware garbage but it didnt help. I did a chkdsk /f and there were many, many bad sectors on the hard drive a majority of them are system32/dll (upside down LL) Cache dll (again upside down LL)files, I ran the scan several times and each time many many bad sectors were found from what I can tell new bad sectors with each scan. What does this mean.
No matter what program I try to use about 5 minutes into it the pc will blue screen crash. It doesnt matter what its is looking at the system device manager, trying to update drivers. I everything I do CRASHES.I cant even get my important data off of the pc & onto a cd without it crashing. I dont know what to do. I can download something on a different pc test to ensure its working right then put it on this pc and I get a message saying that some file is corrupt or it will crash. It doesnt matter what it is a few minutes into it the system crashes. Even when try to run software of the mobo cd still crashes I tested the memory and 1 test program says it passed and another test program says it failed.
i shut down while pc was running chkdsk (yes, I now know how stupid that was). I rebooted and that brought me to the blue screen that I have not been able to get past yet. Message reads: stop:0x00000024(0x00190203, 0x83160AB0, 0xC0000102, 0x00000000) I was able to change setup to get it to reboot from the cd drive and used the XP Diagnostics CD to run diagnostics. I ran the diagnostics for blue screen and hard drive errors - all tests passed. (This took several hours). I then tried to reboot from hard drive and got the same blue screen again. i then put in the Windows XP startup disk and came to the recovery console. Here I get a prompt I've never seen before: 1:J:minint
I got a blue screen that gave me the following message: Stop: ox000000F4-(ox00000003-ox899F3A50, ox899F3BC4, ox805D1142) running XP Professional with SP 2
