Errors -- Stop Error?
Im using Windows XP Home Edition, and have never had an issue until recently.
So far, I have linked the issue POSSIBLY to using Ventrilo, it seems to be a trigger sometimes, but not all. The problem is, while Im on the desktop [never seems to occur anywhere else] if I do simple things [make shortcuts, send a file to another place, delete a short cut, empty the trash bin, ect.] My computer restarts its self, and tells me it 'recovered from a serious error." I actually reported the issue, and I was sent to a page apparently on windows site explaining that it was a stop error, but the symptoms and things didnt sound right. There was no blue screen, and none of the error names sounded correct. I recently upgraded my graphics, old ram, and added another gig of ram in addition, however these problems existed previous to those events. If anyone knows anything about this, please let me know! Its getting a bit annoying... |

You should try "Error Checking" your hard drive. Rightclick the drive icon
in Explorer, and Properties, Tools Tab. -- click the Ratings button. Voting helps the web interface. http://www.microsoft.com/wn3/locales...help_en-us.htm see ''rate a post'' Mark L.

Errors -- Stop Error?
Leiid
If it is a Blue Screen Stop Error doing the following will enable you to copy down the complete message when the problem next occurs. Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced, Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before Automatically Restart. Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure until you have resolved the problem. Check for variants of the Stop Error message. If it is something else you may get a clue by looking in Event Viwer for a Report for the time it occurred. You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event Viewer. -- Hope this helps.

It is a Blue Screen of Death notwithstanding that you are not seeing a
Blue Screen. See if you see a Blue Screen after disabling automatic restart as suggested in my previous post. I would make a point of checking Device Manager and sigverif first. Background information on Stop Error message 0x8E http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms794023.aspx 0x0000008E: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED A kernel mode program generated an exception which the error handler didn't catch. These are nearly always hardware compatibility issues (which sometimes means a driver issue or a need for a BIOS upgrade). Source: http://aumha.org/a/stop.htm Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties, Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code? Try Start, Run, type "sigverif.exe" without quotes and hit OK. What drivers are listed as unsigned? Disregard those which are not checked. Remove any dust bunnies from inside the computer casing using an Air Duster and check all fans are running. Check the hard drive for bad sectors by running chkdsk /f /r You need to be aware that running chkdsk can take hours Faulty RAM. You might test your RAM memory http://www.memtest.org/ http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/...ardware_Tshoot -- Hope this helps.

I turned off the auto restart, and am so far waiting for the error to happen
again to see what results that produces. I might try replicating the issue on purpose later.

If you still have the original NVidia drivers provided when you computer was purchased it is likely that updated drivers are available, NVidia have a utility on their web site which checks whether you have the latest driver thereby making update much easier. Option 2 in this link: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us -- Hope this helps.
