BSOD error on Win XP stop 0x0000007B

Hi all.

I have a problem with my PC.After restarting it yesterday a BSOD Error message (STOP 0x0000007B)appeared when the OS is loading.
I haven´t installed anything new.I have WinXP SP2.I can access Safe Mode.Now I am completely lost.Could anybody help me?.

Thank you.
 
First, because you can boot into Safe Mode there is a strong possibility the issue is with drivers. So we need you to do the following...

How to find and post your Minidump Files:

My Computer > C Drive > Windows Folder > Minidump Folder > Minidump Files.

It is these files that we need (not the folder). Attach to your next post the five most recent dumps. Notice the Manage Attachments button at the bottom when you go to post the next time. You can Zip up to five files per Zip; if you only have one or two you don’t need to zip them, just attach as is. Please do us a favor and don’t Zip each one individually.


Second, when this issue is resolved we strongly recommend you update to Service Pack 3. If for nothing else than for security reasons.
 
I only find a file (a dmp. file) inside Minidump folder but it is dated 7/11/2010,so I don´t think it is any use.I guess I am not looking in the worng folder as I followed the path you wrote.
 
The Minidump folder is what you want. The files are contained within. Go ahead and update to SP3 and if you get any more BSODs see if the files are within. If not, get back to us and we'll take another step.

* Keep us updated.
 
So I do update to SP3 from Safe Mode??.No problem doing so?.And the restart and hope no BSOD appears.Is it correct?.

If so I´ll do that and tell you what happens.
 
Hi.

I tried installing SP3 but I got an error during isntallation (it froze when it was analising my PC components,or something).Anyway.I restarted my computer and it worked fine.I am not 100% sure the error is solved,as SP3 didn´t finish installation, and I haven´t restarted my PC again in case it crashes.
I´ll stay like this for the moment.As soon as I restart it again I´ll let you know.
 
As I feared I restarted my PC afeter 24 hours of running without problems and the BSOD appeared again.The same problem as yesterday.
I don´t know what to do....
 
I have a report from a chkdsk I have just ran.I don´t know if it is of any use but here it is.
And I also attach the file found in the minidump.

Your error is 0xCA: PNP_DETECTED_FATAL_ERROR
This indicates that the Plug and Play Manager encountered a severe error, probably as a result of a problematic Plug and Play driver. Which explainns why you can enter Safe Mode: whatever driver it is cannot engage as it attempts to do when in Normal boot up.

Questions: Have you been recently infected? Are you using an external harddrive? Have you loaded any new software lately?
 
Not infected that I know.I ran Malwarebites´Antimalware and AVG when the first crash and didn´t find anything.

I am using several external HD and when I first crashed I was using a USB pendrive.

No new software.

Any idea how to solve the problem??.

Thanks one more.
 
Did you have any issues with this USB Pendrive before? What happens when you run the system without any of your USB devices connected?
 
That USB pendrive never gave me any problem.

I have just restarted with no USB attached to the PC and the same BSOD is still there.
 
I have continued trying to install SP3 and I finally got it started in Safe Mode with networking BUT a message error pops up saying that "ndis.sys is open or in use...."I have checked and it is not open or in use.Maybe if I get to install SP3 ,as you first suggested I could start solving my problem.
Any idea how to pass that point in installation?.

Thanks.
 
I believe we need to do a Windows Repair at this time. I believe you have your XP disk, correct?
 
Good news.I used Dr.Web Cure It and it seems it has solved the problem.I have been able to restart perfectly.Was it a virus then??.
Let´s put the next step you suggested in stand by.I will come back if the problem appears again or in a couple of days to confirm everything is fine.
It has been running with no problems for a couple of hours now.The only thing left is to restart again but I will not do it today.

Thanks for all Route44
