Blue Screen of Death Error

Posted: 08-02-2003, 12:56 AM
Hi,

Since lately, on startup there has been an error that
said it could've load system32.exe. Think that sounds
important.

Anyways, after around 10-20 min. I get a blue screen of
error. It says driver irql not less or equal. Something
like that.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

have you changed your video card lately? I upgraded mine
and it was not compatible with the motherboard causing
damage to the motherboard. I now have a new computer
because of it. The video card works great with the new
motherboard, (and processor), though.

There is no System32.exe. You have a virus. If you have antivirus software
installed, try going into safe mode and see if you can run the software,
make sure it is up to date. To enter safe mode, boot the system, start
tapping F8, when the menu appears, select Safe Mode and press enter.

If you are unable to get into safe mode, try a repair install as follows.
If the repair install allows you to get into Windows, run your antivirus
software as mentioned above. A repair install will not rid your system of a
virus:
.. NOTE, while a repair install should leave your data files intact, if
something goes wrong during the repair install, you may be forced to start
over and do a clean install of XP. If you don't have your data backed up,
you would lose your data should that eventuality occur.



Boot from the CD. If your system is set to be able to boot from the CD, it
should detect the disk and give a brief message, during the boot up, if you
wish to boot from the CD press any key.



Once you have pressed a key, setup should begin. You will see a reference
asking if you need to load special drivers and another notice that if you
wish to begin the ASR (Automatic Recovery Console) depress F2. Just let
setup run past all of that. It will continue to load files and drivers.



Then it will bring you to a screen. Eventually, you will come to a screen
with the option to (1) setup Windows or (2) Repair Windows Installation
using the Recovery console.



The first option, to setup Windows is the one you want and requires you to
press enter. When asked, press F8 to accept the end user agreement. Setup
will then search for previous versions of Windows. Upon finding your
version, it will ask if you wish to Repair your current installation or
install fresh. Press R, that will run a repair installation. From there
on, follow the screens.

Blue Screen of Death Error

Upon booting WinXP I get an
error "INVALID_WORK_QUEUE_ITEM" on a blue screen. Under
Technical information also gives a STOP: 0x00000096 and
NDIS.sys as the problem. If I get rid of the NDIS.sys
file it will boot up but after loggin on it gives an error
Can't open Win Socket. This file has to do with
networking. I've tried taking the same file from another
laptop which is configure the same, but no good. Let me
step back a bit to say that it does boot sometimes.
Any help would be appreciated.
