where it came from...and how it can be fixed??? It started about 3-4 days ago....only thing different about computer is that our internet was down for a bit due to a big storm we had...?The instruction at "0x014d3195" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read"I don't know if this is serious or not...but not a message I've ever seen before!
View 14 Replieswhenever I try to use some part of Windows Explorer (e.g. opening Control Panel, Network Connections, folders on my desktop) I get an error message that says: "The instruction at 0x01dde065 referenced memory at '0x00000000'. The memory could not be 'written'. Click on OK to terminate the program" When I click OK, Explorer terminates and restarts, but still has the same problem. I tried restarting as well as running a System Restore and neither fixed the problem. All of my other programs appear to be working fine, and there is no noticeable performance drop.
I have an hp compaq nx 9010 laptop and recently got this message. i wonder if the change in ram has done it>? 1 chip is the original 256 mb, the other is a 512
I get an application error on start up before ever making a move to open any programs. The instruction at "0x009a6f9a" referenced memory at "0x00000000" could not be written. The moment I noticed this issue was after an install of my Printer/Fax/scanner by HP, It is a wireless printer so the firewall asked if it should unblock for the install process. My question is should I try to go back to a restore point before that install or is there a workaround for this error.

Is there anything I can do short of taking them out individually and putting them in different slots to test them? I have a 512mb and two 256's.

For the past few days the windows XP set-up disc has been in the CD drive and not done anything (I was trying to repair something and left it in because I forgot about it).I switched the PC on when I came home from work and for some unknown reason windows is attempting to reinstall itself. I don't know if this is my own fault for leaving the disc in? Why would this happen out of the blue when the disc has been in for a while and not done this?
Anyway, I'm being taken to a setup screen and being told to insert the CD or setup can't continue. There's no way of backing out of it. Re-starting isn't helping. I've tried rebooting with last good configurations, in safe mode (which didn't work) and it's still telling me to insert the disc.I'm assuming that following through with the install will delete everything I have and all my own configurations. Is there any way of getting out of it?
Anyone who remembers my posts knows that I have been having all kinds of problems with my Win XP Home for at least three months now. Most of it has been my fault, as I don't do my research and get advice from experts like this forum before I barge ahead and pretend like I know more than I do. I'm on a Sony VAIO, almost 5 years old. It has 80 GBs and 700+ RAM and another 512 chip waiting to be installed (I want to fix these other issues first). I don't have any kind of original XP CD, which has caused many problems, because my computer came loaded with the OS. I just have restore disks which take me back to 2002. I have decided to wipe my hard drive and install my Dad's XP Pro, which is also 2002. At least I'd have the installation disk. He has permission to use it on multiple computers. I plan to get all of the updates for it from Microsoft once it is installed - is that a problem? I will not upgrade IE6 to IE7.

I recently bought Pink Floyd's, Dark Side of The Moon cd, and it is one of those new SACD "enhanced CDs". The problem is when i put it in my laptop and it didn't read, at all. The cursor has the little CD thing on it when i put it in, but nothing happens.

When i go through "My Computer is does not even show a disk being in the drive.
View 1 Replies View RelatedCD-RW and DVD-Rom stopped reading data on my CD's. They see the CD's but don't read the data, the CD's appear not to contain anything. I've posted the particular problem twice on this forum, but got no answer. For users experiencing the same or similar problems, I've now determined the cause... I've got a SAHARA USB 2.0 flash drive that came with a UFD-utility that enables one to configure the drive into a private and public area, enabling you to safeguard critical files. This utility causes this problem. Unfortunately I could thus far not find a solution, apart from uninstalling the utility and making do without this function. The flash drive works fine otherwise, not causing any problems. Only the UFD-utility does. I will see if I can find an update that resolves this problem and I will let SAHARA know about it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOnly 2 tweeks were ever done to my OS WinXP SP2, Under "Performance Options" I changed "Visual Effects" to "Adjust for Best Performance", and also I added paging files to drive "C" and "D" setting them on "System Managed Size". My problem is memory/OS related... I've been running this PC with 1 gig [2-512Mb] of dual 266MHz DDR PC2100 DIM CL2.5 of RAM. Recently I started doing a lot of graphics work on very large files and kept running out of memory.
I removed 2-512 Mb boards and replaced with 4 matched, tested, 1 gig boards increasing my PC to 4 gigs. But it seems WinXP w/Service Pack 2 is having a problem seeing and allocating the 4 gigs, because I don't see the entire 4gigs in several places of my PC and I see less then 3gigs in available memory. With "Systems > Performance" running I noticed that when the window pops-up up saying ''insufficient memory'', there is still plenty of gigs of available memory left..............
Whenever I insert a disc for a game, nothing happens unless I click on the shortcut. This may not sound like much of a problem, but It is if I want to re-install a game. The same thing happens with game demo DVDs. I've tried entering D:setup.exe. into the Run box, as a game instruction manual told me to do, but it comes up with an error message:"D refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disc is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."In the manual (which happens to be for Freelancer, but that's not important), it says "type D:setup.exe (where D represents your CD-ROM drive)". I don't know whether D is my cd-rom drive or not, how do I find out? Or can I just click "enable autorun" or something similar somewhere, and will this solve the problem? Also, this may or may not be related, recently, the button on my keyboard which closes the disc tray has stopped working, I now have to manually push the tray in (there's no button on the computer).

So all going good the Hard drive i could format, then start the installation of windows, until it then begins to state that there are files missing on the disc that it needs for installation. The disc is a legit copy of windows I have purchased and is in good condition with no scratches at all so there is no data missing. further more i installed windows 98 onto it and that was fine... The laptop is not so old as to it wont support XP as it is designed for xp and previously had xp on there.
