Hi, welcome to the forum.

What you have there is a BSOD (blue screen of death).

It happens when files are corrupt in the HDD or the connection between the HDD and the motherboard fails.

Are you using windows vista?
Try using system restore to restore all the windows files.
 
Ok good because i have some friends that have windows vista and get BSOD's because of it.

Try using system restore to restore all the windows files.

You might have that option when u start your computer, in my pc the restore key is F8.
 
wait, ive bein having this problem sence like november. i just kind of delt with it. but my system restore only goes back 2-3 monthes
 
Oh, then your best bet is to reformat...

Just to be sure, try to check the connection inside the PC between the mobo and the HDD.
 
Well... you could reinstall windows if you have a CD of windows.

Try to reinstall ONLY windows XP and it will probably work.
 
why cant we just find out what the problem is and fix it. or if its a program delete it.


Cant i show u guys my [Mini dump folder, or event 1001?
 
I don't know if it can be a program. But you could just reinstall your windows or restore. That's the only way i know how to fix it :(

Srry

As you can see, "memory_corruption" is cited as the likely cause. Test your RAM with Memtest86 for a minimum of 7 passes.
 
ehh can somebody give me like a walkthrough.. i dont really know how to use that mem86

its says enter diskkete drive or somthing. what do i type in there?
 
Download this .iso, it will be zipped so, unzip it. Then, burn the .iso to a CD as an image file. If you don't have software to do that, click here. After you've burned it as an image you will need to boot off that CD. So, leave it in your optical drive and reboot.

If your optical drive isn't ahead of your HDD on the boot order, look for a message upon starting your PC about entering "setup". Tap whatever key it suggests (usually F1, F2 or Delete) and then roam around within the BIOS until you find the "Boot Sequence" options or something comparable to that. Put your optical drive in front of your HDD on the list, save and exit.

err how do i un zip it? and how do i burn it/save it as an img to a cd. i put a blank cd in the cd drive.
 
..I believe it's a "Compressed (zipped) Folder" so you should just be able to open it and then move the file outside of that folder.

You need software to burn that file as a .iso image. So, unless you have software that's able to do that, click the link I provided above and choose a program. After installing whatever software you've decided on, run it and find the option to burn an image file or a .iso file. Obviously, you'll put a blank CD in your optical drive and follow the software's prompts.
 
ok i think i unziped it. (aka extract) well it gives me a "BOOT" folder. And in it has BOOT Security Catalog and MEMTEST.IMG IMG File


then what? when i click on the MEMTEST.IMG it just says.."Windows cannot open this file: i guess i need to open it with a program but i dont know what one. plz help



do i save the MEMTEST.IMG on to the CD through the program i Downloaded?
 
...I'm sorry vivec66, I don't have the patience for this :). I'm sure someone will stroll through and help you shortly.
