STOP: 0x0000008E
my windows xp installation has shut down completely
F8 functionallity (reboot) also freezes - safe mode and restore freeze completely the blue screen message after rebooting with windows xp cd is setupdd.sys Address F84C0B18 base at F84A1000 The maxtor harddrive installation software apparently operates normally - (at first it wouldn't instantiate the installation and maintenance functions). This does not appear to be a hard disk failure; as I got the proper information the second time and it warned me about erasing all the data from the harddrive (reformat). The problem began with a usb driver problem for an external hp moviewriter which has heretofor operated perfectly [25 dvds made]. I ran disk defragmentor and it also performed perfectly and then I ran check disk for errors and rebooted.....this was the last time I saw my windows xp installation. Thank you for your attention; I have valuable information on this computer and would like to recover it. |
