Guest KDawg44 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Hi, I have an XP system that suddenly will not boot up. It gets as far as the Windows XP screen, then goes blank, and nothing. I tried to boot into safe mode and it stopped at the file MUP.SYS. I booted into the recovery console using the WinXP CD and tried a chkdsk /R c:\. THis finished after quite some time and did not help. I then tried to replace MUP.sys with the one from the CD. Same. Then I tried DISABLE MUP and then it stopped at the file right before MUP (NDIS.sys). Reinstallation is not an option here. Any ideas on what I can do? Is there a way to run sfc from the recovery console? Thanks.

In looking at the boot log for a PC that is the same model, after MUP.SYS I got Loaded driver Mup.sys Did not load driver ACPI Multiprocessor PC Did not load driver Audio Codecs Did not load driver Legacy Audio Drivers Did not load driver Media Control Devices Did not load driver Legacy Video Capture Devices Did not load driver Video Codecs The next LOADED driver is: Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\usbohci.sys Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\usbehci.sys So it appears to be USB? I have a mouse plugged into USB and that is all. I am going to see if I can find the boot log for the PC in question if I boot in through the recovery console. Any ideas? Thanks.

The *infamous* stop on mup.sys! As you already found out mup.sys has nothing to do with the error, mup.sys is the last driver to load before the system hangs. There is no magic solution to the question, the error can happen for different reasons and no one has a cure all for this error.

I printed a ntbtlog from a working computer of the same model and wanted to get back into the recovery console to copy the ntbtlog from the not-working PC to a floppy so I can print it out and go line by line to find out what is wrong. Now when I put the XP CD in, the system says setup is checking my system, then the screen goes dark and that's it. Any idea what could cause this? Thanks, I am at my wits end...

I was able to get the PC to boot up to the recovery console and compare the two ntbtlog files (working PC vs. this one). The only difference I see is that the working PC does this: Loaded driver \SystemRoot\System32\Drivers\Cdfs.SYS Service Pack 2 8 24 2007 15:46:54.375 Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\ntkrnlpa.exe Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\hal.dll Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\KDCOM.DLL Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\BOOTVID.dll Loaded driver ACPI.sys Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\WMILIB.SYS Loaded driver pci.sys Loaded driver isapnp.sys Loaded driver pciide.sys ...... so on for a third time and the non-working does not. The last item in the non-working PC is : Loaded driver \SystemRoot\System32\Drivers\Cdfs.SYS The third time that this little snippet appears in the log, much of it is the same as previous times but some is not, such as: Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\Rtnicxp.sys Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\fdc.sys Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\serial.sys Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\serenum.sys Loaded driver \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\parport.sys This never appears anywhere else where as lines like: Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\ntkrnlpa.exe Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\hal.dll Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\KDCOM.DLL Loaded driver \WINDOWS\system32\BOOTVID.dll are appearing three times. Pasted below is the entire missing piece from the end of the ntbtlog.txt file of the non-working PC. Thanks for any help and insight.

If not, please do so before reposting. The fact that you are getting different errors points to hardware failure. Of course, there is no way for me to be sure of this without seeing the machine and doing hardware troubleshooting. Standard caveat: Testing hardware failures often involves swapping out suspected parts with known-good parts. If you can't do the testing yourself and/or are uncomfortable opening your computer, take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). Have all your data backed up before you take the machine into a shop. In your first post you said "reinstallation is not an option". Why not? Data can be retrieved off a non-working Windows installation with very little trouble if the hard drive is physically viable. At this point (with the understanding that I can't see the machine so this is an educated professional's guess): 1. Retrieve data if it hasn't been backed up. If you want data retrieval methods, let me know. 2. Do extensive hardware troubleshooting. Replace any failing hardware. Clean-install Windows if necessary. 3. If all hardware is good, clean-install Windows. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers http://www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!" MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User
