BSOD stop: 0x24 ntfs.sys

ned93 · Jun 14, 2010

Hi, I have a Dell Dimension 2200. On boot up I was getting a memory read/write failure. I ran Memtest and determined one of the 2 modules was giving me tons of errors. I kept one of the modules (its only 256 mb) in. It won't boot and gives me a BSOD Stop: 0x24 (0x001902FE, 0xF9695508, 0xF9102185) ntfs.sys - Address F9102185 base at F90F5000, DateStamp 45cc56a7.
I can't go back to Last known good configuration. When I try Safe Mode ( any of the 3 types) it comes up with a missing or corrupt pci.sys driver.
I am not sure now if its still a memory problem, or is it a software problem?
Thanks
Ned

Fixing a stop error 24

Configure your PC to boot from CD if it isn't already set up that way. You may need to enter the BIOS to configure the PC to boot from the CD.

Start your PC with the XP Setup CD in the drive. When you see the "Press any key to boot from CD..." prompt, do so and let the CD-based boot process begin.

When the Recovery Console option is offered (Press R to start the Recovery Console), do so. You may be asked which Windows installation to enter, in which case type the number of the Windows installation you wish to work on (usually 1).

When prompted, enter the Administrator's password for that Windows installation. If you did not set a password just press ENTER

At the command prompt, type
chkdsk /r (there is a space before the /)
Enter
Click to expand...

Since your Dell may have come with a restore disk instead of a windows disk, the above won't work.
