Hi all!!
I booted my pc and windows got stuck at the loading screen. I rebooted, got through to the desktop, ran chkdsk/f, and rebooted again to do the check.
After chkdsk, the pc rebooted automatically, and after the loading bar, I got a BSOD with ndis.sys in the description. after reboot, it happened again, but thrid time I got through.
I think this may be 'cos I patched my tcpip.sys to increase the number of half open connections, because after googling, I found that NDIS meant Network Driver Interface. I unpatched it again, and have had no bsods so far. after loading the minidump on windbg, it gave the message that it was a graphics driver fault. I reinstalled my nvidia driver, although I sure that nvidia was not the cause.
Anyway, id like to get to the bottem of this, as last time it happened, I had to reinstall windows to fix it. Ive attached the minidump so all you clever ppl can have a look at it.
My specs:
Win XP Pro, SP2
Geforce 5200fx
120gb seagate hd
512 pc3200 ram
thanks in advance
