Hello everyone:

I am new to this forum and like many of you searching for BSOD solutions I googled my way in here! To anyone who can help-thanks in advance:

Here’s a challenge!

Calling all computer gurus-I need your help!

I got my system in September 2005. Almost from the beginning-I started getting a message-windows has recovered from a serious error along with random BSOD-usually IRQ less or equal driver fault issues-. After troubleshooting with the dump files and running hardware diagnostics –memory tests (all passed)-I changed the video card, RAM, HD and no change-random crashes and the WinDebug analysis shows various things on each crash!-they range from ntkrpramp causing crash to usbstor.sys, NTFS,sys, memory corruption, (even after I changed the memory fully), Intel C51sys etc and sometimes unidentified driver fault-fact is there is no single driver identified each time-it is a different process causing a crash-and the fact is the same thing is happening under Vista as well (I set up a dual boot system to see if it was system related)-I have run all the hardwre diagnostics (the long version!) and everything passed everytime-I am just at my wits end and perhaps I should put it out of its misery by shooting it. I have an old Dim233 (now running XP Home) and an Inspiron 8000 (XP Pro) which are rock solid and this latest and greatest is virtually useless as it crashes randomly at least 5 times a day in the middle of something or even when I am not using it, it will crash! I did a clean install last week and the system still crashes even with minimal software-Windebug analyses still shows random reasons-no single process or driver-mostly these days it is due to NTKRPAMP.EXE. I would appreciate any help and I will post two of the dump file messages for perusal if that would help right at the bottom. Maybe I have a lemon! TIA...



Here are my system specs:

Dell Dim 9100 BIOS A03-

3 Ghz HT-2 GB Corsair RAM at 667 Mhz -

SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M (1000007e)
This is a very common bugcheck. Usually the exception address pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem. Always note this address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003. This means a hard
coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
/NODEBUG. This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have
hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
system is booted /DEBUG. This will let us see why this breakpoint is
happening.
Arguments:
Arg1: c0000005, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: 805503d3, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: b9810c58, Exception Record Address

You wouldn't happen to have the Application and System files from the event viewer? Look in these and see if any warning or error indications are present. Check the Event ID and Source. Look the information up at the Microsoft Technet. The dump information is useful but this will help isolate the problem faster.
 
I went and reread the things to do before posting BSODs and I have done all the steps (replaced the RAM-even though it passed MEMtest), cleaned all the dust out and ran chkdisk etc., except install and run the everest software-I did try changing the PSU but the one I got from PC power and cooling was too samll for my machine
 
Do you have a spare SATA cable? Try replacing that. I see errors that appear to be random as though the information is being scrambled during the load process. I'm still going through the dump.
 
Thanks sliderule 101 for teh quick response-I reviewed the event viewer-most of the errors relate to the catalog service and I have disabled the indexing serivce since the last 2 days and still the BSODs continue-some warnings related the TCPIP settings-none related to the stuff I get in the WinDBG
 
I do have an e SATA drive (I just put it up yesterday) which I could disconnect and use as the spare SATA cable I suppose-but it seemed like it was happening even with only one internal SATA HDD-I will proceed with installing the Everest software and see as wel. Thanks ...
 
Have you reloaded the operating system after formatting the hard drive, then loading the software one item at a time and testing for a day or two before installing other software? It maybe that the OS or one of the software programs is corrupt.
 
I reloaded the OS and then followed the recommended order of loading the system software as DELL recommended (chip set utility, DSS, video driver, audio driver etc). But almost immediately without any other software except the system, the crashes started-I also noticed during cleaning that the paste on top of the processor and the heat sink was kind of dry-but my MOBO does not have a processor heat sensor and the everest software gives only the heat on the Video card and the HDDs-so I do not know whether the processor is heating up too much or the PSU not supplying enough Wattage-I heard Dell PSUs (375W) are underrated and should be sufficient for the hardware I have inside-it is frustrating-the pity is that the machine flies when it is working!
 
I found something which may be significant-I have a Samsung Dell OEM internal 13-1 card reader-sometimes the OS does not seem to "recognize" it and it is not listed in the Device manager and then randomly after some days it will come back in the device manager by itself. I find that whenever it is NOT listed in device manager then machine does NOT crash. Could it be that the internal wire is faulty or the reader is faulty-I am going to disable the reader in the BIOS and test the hypothesis. If the wire is faulty-it is a pain to replace as it is a Dell proprietary one -any insights? TIA
 
Sigh-the theory is gone-it just crashed -again the notorius ntkrpamp.exe

I have been tracing the address:

Could not read faulting driver name

WRITE_ADDRESS: ffffff93

FFFFFFF93 is memory used by the system board, i.e. crash time. What ever is accessing this area of memory maybe an older program. Are you running any old programs from a previous computer that was running an older OS?
 
Music Match is the only one and Greetings workshop but the problem is there even before I installed them...thanks
 
Update to crashes after PSU replaced-any thoughts-anyone?

Hello all computer experts!:
Well my misery continues with a twist-I changed the PSU (a refurbished Dell part)-now the crashes are 90% due to ntkrpapamp.exe! What is that file and why is it crashing the machine? I am going to try leaving the machine on under Vista (I dual boot) and see it it happens there as well-it used to crash under Vista as well before the PSU was changed-the challenge is I can't figure out if is hardware or software.
Except for the optical drives, the media reader and the floppy as well as the mobo and sound card, modem and TV tuner-practically everything from RAM to video card to HDD have been replaced to no effect! Strangely, after the crash it reboots and goes to the log on screen and many times it will not crash if the machine is left at the log on screen-but if I log on and then leave it on-it seems to crash more often! It is possessed! But take a look at the latest log file anyone and let me know what you think...TSA

Hi KC-thanks -I will check out the links-problem is the crashes continue under Vista as well-I do not know whether the WinDBG works for Vista as well-then I can analyze the dump filers in vista-since it occurs under bot the OSes, can it be the hardware but which one-I have replaced almost everything- I think I have probably spent too much on this dumb machine already-but I have learnt a lot-lol! Maybe I should change careers:)
 
Hi DSP316
Et. al.

If its any consolation... I am having the same problem I upgraded to Vista Business a few weeks ago and every since my machine has been giving me random BSOD ( 1~2 daily ... random intervals)

Analyzing the dump it have the same culprit ntkrpamp.exe ... If any one thinks it would be helpful I can post the full listing for it as well .

I set the machine up as a dual boot system as it was originally XP Pro I installed a second drive and put Vista on that.

Under Xp the system NEVER Blue Screened on me ,

Under Vista the error is always PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

I have been trying everything I can find on the net and Still no luck

The only things yet to try is New SATA Cable but I doubt that will make a difference :(

Please any help would be really really really appreciated ... I've past my wit's end last week and now I'm driving my wife crazy :(

Finally-found the culprit-(I hope!)

Thanks one and all who helped-I took my machine to my friend today and he put new thermal paste on the processor and heat sink (arctic silver?)-we fired up 7-8 applications at the same time-including virus scanner, DVD movie, MS Word, Adobe PS and the machine ran without crashing and I am currently using it and it has not crahed (yet!)-I will leave it on all night (usually crashes/reboots several times during the night and writes mini-dump)-so if it stays all night without crashing then heat may have been the issue-too bad-I wasted money on the PSU. Cheers (I hope!)

No joy! ntoskernel?

Well-I left the system running all night and it is crashing less now and the main culprit now is ntoskernel and win32k.sys!
Here are two dump files from last night-

SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M (1000007e)
This is a very common bugcheck. Usually the exception address pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem. Always note this address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003. This means a hard
coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
/NODEBUG. This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have
hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
system is booted /DEBUG. This will let us see why this breakpoint is
happening.
Arguments:
Arg1: c0000005, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: 00000000, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: b9804c64, Exception Record Address
Arg4: b9804960, Context Record Address

Debugging Details:

Only thing I can say is pull the Sound Blaster and anything else you absolutely don't need and reinstall.

Just get the OS and chipset and Video going if you can.

(In)voluntary euthanasia!

I appreciate your input CCT-I have analyzed the minidumps under Vista as well and no guesses allowed! same problems persist under Vista-almost the same processes with random crashes-which to me points to a hardware issue-but which one? I am going to do a heart transplant-I have ordered a replacement mobo from Centrix international (Dell OEM for 9100-it was not too costly-$49-so it should be the exact same replacement)-I will use this opportunity to learn to strip my computer and put it together and if it breaks the machine-so be it-at least it will be (in)voluntary euthanasia! I will report on my success (or lack of it) soon-as you can see-I will put an end to this BSOD problem one way or another!!:giddy:
