Ok, so yesterday my comp started throwing out blue screens for no apparent reason.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I'd try and boot up, it would just reboot when windows went to load my desktop with the following Stop:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x8062BFB7, 0xAAF7F9C8, 0x00000000)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So I figured I'd boot into safe mode after a few of them to check out what the hell was going on. And about 5 minutes into that I was given another stop error:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STOP: 0x00000024 (0x001902FE, 0xF64F5654, 0xF64F5350, 0xF76A9D7D)

 

 

 

ntfs.sys - Address F76A9D7D base at F768f000, DateStamp: 44107EEA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At which point I figured Window's must've been broken or something. So I reinstalled. Worked fine for the rest of the night. Now I boot up not more than 30min ago. Computer is working and then it reboots. So I get it to halt with the blue screen and I'm looking at this error:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STOP:0x0000008E (0xC000001D, 0xB2563452, 0xB11A4BD4, 0x00000000)

 

 

 

rdbss.sys - Address B2563452 base at 42547000, DateStamp 41108015

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Which has me think it's a memory leak now. But I dunno.

Ah, and if you want my system specs:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Geil 1GB Dual Channel DDR (2x512mb)

 

 

 

AMD Athlon 64 3500+

 

 

 

Gigabyte K8NSNXP-939

 

 

 

Seagate Barracuda S-ATA 200GB

 

 

 

ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 12mb

I had this problem a little while ago, the first thing i would suggest it to try it with one stick of RAM and take out all the unneccesary cards.

That was the first thing I did yesterday.

 

 

 

I took out one, booted up and it blue screened.

 

 

 

Shut down, swapped sticks and tried again... same result.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And I highly doubt my RAM is overheating after 5 minutes from a cold boot.

OK,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Doesn't seem like a windows memory leak unless you are getting a hell of a lot of lag before this happens (and i mean a hell of a lot)...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Would seem to me like a headcrash waiting to happen.. Drop in tomorrow and ill give you a 40gig hdd to use.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

hmn... odd one.

I would point my finger at the hard drive yea, maybe it is just going to hell :(

Well, i just got a hold of another drive. Stuck Fedora Core 3 on it (XP didn't want to recognise the drive :roll:) and it's been working fine for the last.. like half hour. Now all I have to do is rescue all my data off the OTHER drive and try and sort something out. Hopefully I can dump it on my sisters latop or something.
