I am having some nasty problems with this computer. I am constantly getting blue screens with all kinds of STOP errors….that is, when I’m actually lucky enough to boot to the desktop.
Here are several STOP errors I have gotten:
1. IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
STOP: 0x0000000A
2. STOP: 0x0000008E (I get these a lot)
3. PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
STOP: 0x00000050
4. CONFIG_INITIALIZATION_FAILED
STOP: 0x00000067
I have run “MEMTEST86”, and there were 2 or 3 ram modules that are supposedly faulty. So, I removed them and kept the good ram stick installed. There is still no difference in the errors…I have formatted and installed Windows XP 3 times and still no difference…I have even run a compatibility test (from the XP Pro SP2 installation disc) and there are no incompatibilities.
Here are the computer specs:
Windows XP Pro SP2
AMD ATHLON 950 MHz
ASUS K7V Motherboard
PC133 256MB RAM (used to be 576MB)
ATI 9200 SE video card
40 GB Samsung Hard Drive
300 Watt 10amp Macron power Supply
Any ideas what I could do about these problems? (besides buying a new computer)
P.S. Before all these problems started, I was having different problems. The computer would freeze occasionally, and sometimes the monitor would turn off while the computer was still running… almost like it was going to standby, but the computer was still on and functioning, but the monitor would be off with its light blinking.
Thanks for any suggestions.
