pc restarts on internet connect - minidump included?

[perko121]

Hi all I have this problem for very long time.
I have ADSL Siemens C-010I Ethernet modem. OS is Windows XP SP2 with latest hotfixes. When I install Zone Alarm (any version), almost every time I try to connect on internet my PC restarts. (even on the clean install of windows xp). With other firewalls it is ok.
I tried same WinXP installation on my laptop and installed Zone Alarm and there is no problem with laptop. So it must be smthn inside PC. I have 2 LAN cards on PC (Nvidia & Realtek) and comp restarts with both of them. I tried to change memory slots, remove all cards from PCI slots and nothing helped.

HINT: It restarts maybe 8 of 10 times I try to connect to internet. It also restarts when ADSL modem is connected to PC and I try to reinstall my "Local Area Network" Connection, and also when I try to change my TCP/IP address from manual to automatic (only with zone alarm INSTALLED and siemens modem PLUGGED IN).


Ever time PC restarts in this case, an minidump file is created in windows/minidump/ folder. I've installed "Debugging tools from Windows" and here is minidump info it shows:

Tnx in advance

from the look of it your problem is caused by wanarp Some malware camouflage themselves as wanarp.sys, particularly if they are located in c:\windows or c:\windows\system32 folder. have you try to run maleware ect... scans also afther you do the dum file type lmv to get more info

 

[perko121]

I did all possible spyware/trojan/virus scans and now I replaced wanarp.sys with original file from WinXP CD and it again restarts and show exact minidump file.
Here is inf after lmv command:

HINT: I also did detailed disk scan (Avast), and memory scan (memtest386) and it showed no error.

try this go to sysinfo.org when u open that site go to your start menu,run & type msconfig go to startups and type the name of each item in the startup on the site this will show u any vir/troj.mal etc.... that a virus scan may of miss it works very well I have gone to many jobs where that is the problem. also you could go to the site of your. wait do you have a symbol for your debuger

 

[perko121]

I did and all processes are good. I've just reinstalled my comp with brand new Windows XP PRO SP2 and still same problem. So I gave up and installed kerio Personal Firewall. It works very well with this firewall.

How do you get the minidump info? I have a PC I am building and I am having issues with it. There is no OS in it yet, one of my issues, and would like to get at this minidump info.

 

[xxdanielxx]

to get a minidump you need an os on it then u go to c/windows/minidump

 

[kwspony]

Bummer. I think my issue is my memory sticks not being compatible with my mobo, even though Kingston says there are ECS says they aren't. So, I am looking for some others now.
