Blue Screen and no safe mode


Recommended Posts

This morning we were greeted by a blue screen Stop: 0x00000024 (0x00190203,

0x82f2a828, 0x00000000) on start up. I tried to start in Safe mode, safe

mode with CMD prompt etc. Everything ends in the same blue screen.

 

Tried a DOS boost disk to run a chkdsk with no success. Any suggestions

would be greatly appreciated

Re: Blue Screen and no safe mode

 

What exactly do you mean by "Tried a DOS boost disk to run a chkdsk with no

success"?

A true DOS bootdisk will not allow you to access an XP NTFS partition to run

chkdsk. Did chkdsk not run or did it run but not solve the problem?

Re: Blue Screen and no safe mode

 

a) perhaps using a dos boot

disk, try using any winxp disk

and gain access to the disk

system and prompt via its

"recovery console" option.

 

then you can retry chkdsk and

fixboot and bootcfg /rebuild.

 

b) if the above still doesn't

help and "barring" a physical

problem with faulty hardware,

you can also utilize the

"repair install", option with

the win cd to replace missing

or corrupted system files with

genuine ones.

(b)

however there is a caveat

regarding the above, in that

if you o.s. has sp3 installed

then using a sp2 cd or lesser

cannot perform a repair

install.

 

incidentally here is more

info on that error code:

You need NTFS4DOS to run chkdsk without booting into windows. MSDOS,

PCDOS, DRDOS will not work.

Two points of clarification here:

 

1. *If* the drive is NTFS, you need a third-party program like

NTFS4DOS. If the drive is FAT32, you do not.

 

2. NTFS4DOS is only one of several programs that has that capability

of providing NTFS support from within DOS. If he needs such a program,

he doesn't necessarily need that specific one.
