Re: [H] BSOD puzzle...
Yeah clean installs are such a pain that I have a IBM T42 laptop that I got in 2005 that REALLY needs a clean install...since it's running the same copy of WinXP as when I got it! At this point, I have to restart it daily and Outlooks hangs/crashes and all sorts of other funny stuff, and it's getting very old, very fast! :P But as soon as I get that SSD, I'll install Win7 on it, and move to by semi-new 2 yr old T61p and hopefully things will be better! :P BINO -Original Message- From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of Stan Zaske Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2009 5:07 PM To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: Re: [H] BSOD puzzle...

Re: [H] BSOD puzzle...
I have a couple machines that are original installs of XP, from about 6 months after it came out. (All my other XPs are original installs too.) Both have had the HDs cloned to larger drives MANY TIMES, (which is the same as restoring a back-up, except to a different larger HD in the same machine). Even my one machine with WinME is an original install... (I never knew what all the fuss was about that one...) Acronis True Image has worked flawlessly for me for years. Before that, Ghost ver5.x... I guess I live right, use good software + drivers, (not too much free or shareware) and they don't get beat up too bad... I do not remember EVER formatting to get rid of a problem.

No expert here, but I'd do a chkdsk /r and a repair install if that didn't work and a clean install as a last resort if the hardware has been eliminated as the source of the problem.

[H] BSOD puzzle...
Hello Hardware, Ok, here's a good one. Win2K Pro SP4AHotfixes. This system basically just used to access other drives via hdd swappable cart / rack or sata drive dock via USB. Other then that does nothing. Used to recover files from other drives, virus scan other dives, and hold data. Getting a STOP 0x001E KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED with NO file name to indicate what driver or w/e is the issue. I searches the parameters and find nothing on google (my specific error parameters). I boot into safe mode it BSOD's with a system_licence_violation (really weird) and then boots up fine in regular mode. This has happened twice. I changed out memory. Didn't seem to fix it. Mainboard looks ok from visual examination. Don't think this is hardware because once the system is up, it's stays up for days. It's not an emergency cuz the work around is to boot to regular mode, then safe mode and then it should boot in regular mode but it's weird. Thought I'd run it by you guys... -- Regards, joeuser - Still looking for the 'any' key... ...now these points of data make a beautiful line...
