More Blue screen!

Ok I installed Windows XP Home with SP2, boots to the loading screen, I have the little loading bar. All is well then right before the login screen pops up it blue screens and restarts. Now here is the funny part, it works great in safe mode. I have unplugged everything but the keyboard, mouse, power and moniter, taken all he PCI stuff out to where only the video card is in. I have 1 single hard drive installed and I have reinstalled about 4 times now. Any ideas?

 

i had the blue screen problem a couple of times..and each time i had to break down and reinstall windows

 

I have done that like 4 times now.

 

Disable automatic restart.

My Computer > Properties, Advanced, Startup and Recovery >Settings.

Under system failure, uncheck auotmatically restart. Do it from Safe Mode, then reboot and give the full verbatim error message that pops up.

 

It is the basic blue screen "A problem has been detected and windows has been shutdown to prevent damage to your computer"

The "Technical Data reads"

*** STOP: 0x0000007F (0x00000000,0x00000000,0x00000000,0x00000000)

Does that help?

 

A little.

There is a file that was created in C:\windows\minidump that has a filename of today. Please zip it and attach it in a post.

 

There were only 2 files, here are both. Thanks again for the help!

 

Both crashes were caused by nv4_mini.sys.

It is part of the Nvidia forceware video drivers.


Try the latest version. If that doesn't work, try going a version or two backwards.

 

Can you load drivers in safe mode?

 

No, but you can remove them

Then boot up, download the latest and install them.

 

Thanks a million!

 

So, it all worked out then?

 

Yup, removed the old and installed new, now I just have to deal with sound drivers

 

What is the problem there?
