Stop: 0x0000007b (0xf78d2524, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
I have done the following to correct this problem (at great cost in money, days and sleep)
1 scanned the disk for viruses (none)
2 checked for corruption of the disk (bad sectors etc.)(none)
3 checked for memory leaks (none)
4 recreated the partition and formatted using gparted live s/w, diskpart and also fdisk (no joy)
5 accessed the bios to change the controller to eide (not possible nothing changeable and has not initially been set to raid just 400gb)
The only thing I haven’t done is change the hd controller s/w I tried with f6 to load a different driver but xp pro doe’s not come with support for the hdd (how shocking?)
The hdd installed is:
Toshiba SATA
Model mk4058sgx 400gb
I have searched almost every download site that claims to provide “free” direct downloads for this driver but when I try to download they want me to join their site at a fee (which I’m reluctant to do for one driver) or else buy their driver upgrade software (which would be ok if I was using the computer that I needed the driver for which I’m not) oh buy the way sony don’t supply support for this hdd either.
so what is it doing in their hardware?
If anyone out there can give me some pointers as to where to get this driver “free” or fix this problem, it would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Andy
