LemonHerb Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 Can you start in safe mode? If you can try a system restore to a date before this started happening. You may also want to restor your BIOS to defaults. If you can get in under safe mode you can do all the normal virii scans and adware scans, stop anything totally unnecessary from starting with your computer by going to start>run and typing in msconfig then go to the startup tab.
Bargeld Posted August 3, 2006 Report Posted August 3, 2006 If you can find out what device is having the problme (video card, sound card, network card, etc.) physically remove that device before booting and see if you can reload drivers for it manually.
L.C. Posted August 4, 2006 Report Posted August 4, 2006 From your duplicate thread.lol. You aren't sopossed to be getting any kind of blue flashing screen of death. If you do, it can be either of the following (that I could think of): (1) Bad drivers, or drivers that somehow corrupted / messed up Windows XP,(2) Bad, old, faulty, or possible incompatible hardware.(3) Anything to do with the CPU overheating or being clocked too high, or chipset damages/issues.(4) Overvoltage streaming of power to any part/certain parts (ie. RAM, CPU, etc). I think you need to reinstall Windows XP and see if it happens. Telling us your system specs (as well as how old your computer might be tongue.gif) should help progress further to correct this problem. If you have your CPU overclocked or anything, I might suggest setting it back to the default factory settings and see how it works. :\
XDOOM Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 I've come across similar problems with Windows XP like that. It is typically what LC mentions above ... I would suggest a format, especially if you can't determine where the error is coming from ... a format will probably take less time than searching for the program/drivers/spyware that caused the problem initially.
