HP Pavilion with Vista keeps Blue Screening

After being racked with blue screens and too much stuff piled on my PC, I did a system recovery and restored everything to factory. However, now, a couple weeks later, I am being bombarded with blue screens.<br><br>The computer will glitch out, freeze and sometimes repeat a sound over and over again while showing blue screen and no matter how many times I restart, nothing fixes. Sometimes it wont even load past the blue HP screen or even to the logon window.<br><br>Currently, I'm getting the error ***STOP: 0X0000007F (0X0000000000000008, 0X0000000080050031, 0X00000000000006F8, 0XFFFFF800020E8834)

Sounds to me like a bad memory chip. Do you have memtest86 on a bootable CD? I would try to run with just one chip of memory installed at a time and see which one it blue screens on and if it works fine with another. It actually could be bad capacitors on the video card and/or mother board (check for bulging/rounded/leaking). The fan on the video card could be stuck or burnt out. Your hard drive could have a bad sector so download the drive certification test iso image from the hard drive manufacturer and make a bootable CD. That will tell you if the drive is good and can fix bad sectors and some minor problems.

After installing the windows 7 64 bit, it will restart automatically with error in blue screen. in this case what should i do? i have using bootcamp 5

if it's restarting directly into an error, you can try troubleshooting (might be painful) or re-install windows with boot camp

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

HP Pavilion 750n - Windows XP Blue Screen of Death Error

Hello everyone - I hope I can get a reply to fix my son's computer (I can't afford to buy a new one).
I received the blue screen of doom and I was not aware that Windows had a patch to fix this before the error occurred. I tried to restore my system to when I first bought this computer without losing all my data (specially my pictures). Now the system starts but it gets stuck on the page that asked if you want to logon on Safe Mode or Regular Mode, etc. No matter what I choose the system keeps coming back to this same screen.
I read the following on the HP web side but I'm not sure how to get this diskette/cd or whatever they have available:
Preventing a Windows XP Critical Error
If you purchased your HP Pavilion home PC between September 2001 and February 2002, your PC may experience a Microsoft® Windows® XP critical error. To prevent an error that may cause your computer to be unusable, HP strongly recommends that you go to the Microsoft Windows Updates Web site to download all critical updates. Without these updates, an Unmountable Boot Volume error may occur randomly, and if it does, the error creates a blue screen with the message: A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME…Technical Information: *** STOP: 0x000000ED
If this error occurs, you will be unable to fix the problem without a diskette that you can order from HP Technical Support.
The system won't let me send HP an email and I can’t see how to contact them just to ask for a price. Perhaps, there may be another place where I can get the diskette for this fix - does anyone know how to get the diskette or if I can download the fix from somewhere else?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Get BartPE or Ultimate Boot CD and you should be able to get the computer to a state that will allow you to copy your files.
If you have a spare computer or HD, configure the problem HD as a slave and you should be able to access your files.

Problem with l355 s7817 Blue Screens and will not boot up

Hello, I am new to this forum so excuse my forum etiquitte. I have a l355 S7817 for 2 yrs and I have had to do a system restore on this laptop twice. I am a Vista SP2 user that has been getting blue screens recently when trying to boot up. I have gone and cleared cache, temp files, temp internet files and removed new software that was loaded and I am still getting the BSOD. I can come up in safe mode, sometimes with networking but when I go to copy data to my external HDD so I can do a system restore again, I get the BSOD. I have tried to restore from a chk point and still get errors. I need to gather my data off the drive so I can do a restore but I cannot get my data due to it fails in the middle of the copy. Any ideas what could be causing this.
I had no problem with my laptop all last week but come Monday, It started doing this. I get a message in Safe mode saying Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown. Windows can check for a online solution to the problem. It finds nothing and in the problem details it says

HP Pavilion dv7t-6c00 CTO Blue screen at start after installing new AMD Mobility Radeon Driver

hi, after installing the new driver from AMD (14.4) windows shows blue screen at startup, there seems to be comflict between this and the Intel HD 3000 driver provided on the official website of HP, I try to install the driver from Intel and windows working mode only basic colors so I went back to install the old intel driver, both drivers can be updated in the official website to support the latest games and programs?

Hi RodMoltedo,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I see you are having some issues with the updates to your AMD and Intel Graphics cards on your HP Pavilion dv7t-6c00 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC. Could you please tell me what operating system you are running on your computer and where you went to get these updates?
Please let me know and I would be happy to help you with this.
Thank and have a nice day!
I worked on behalf of HP.

Raid + Vista + Quicktime = Blue Screen of Death

There is definitely a problem with Quicktime 7.16/Quicktime professional.
my system:
Abus p5b premium Vista MB
2 WD2500SK in RAID 0
2 gig DDR2 800 memory
8800GTX video
Vista Ultimate
Any quicktime movie I play runs fort about 1-2 seconds, the image blanks, and the Blue Screen of Death.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstallin Quicktime.
I've tried disabling Direct X.
There is not a problem with the hardware because you take the same computer, same quicktime movie and runit in Nero's
Show Time 3 and it plays perfectly. All other movie formats in other players that I've tried (assorted avi, mpg, rm) also play gereat which once again indicates that the problem is Apple's software, not the hardware.
A google search shows it is people using RAID that have this problem:
http://www.google.com/search?q=Quicktime+VistaBSOD&rls=com.microsoft:*&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&startIndex=&startPage=1
Movies dwonloaded from ITunes also can crash, but not as perdictably as .mov movies.
I called Apple tech support and was told to call (512) 674 8700. Called the numer and they are not open on weekends.
I will update the post when I get through to support.
I am suprised that Apple does not seem to have an email address for quicktime support. If anyone knows of one please post it.
Peter

OK, I applied the 7.5.1017 driver. Still the same issues, choppy play and buffer overuns on some files.
As a test I copied seome the files not working right to the P5B's built in flash drive, they play fine there.
So it is definitely Apple and Intel not getting along.
BTW Vista scores the drive speed 5.9, so it isn't slow drives.
And no other software (including Nero's video player) have any problems.
It is too late to call Apple tech support today, but I'll post there answer whe I get one.

Solution found for Vista 64 Blue Screen Crash when Itunes Sharing on.

After days of trial and error, I found the problem with my Windows based machine crashing (Blue Screen, IRQL error) when ATV would access ITunes through sharing. FYI, The blue screen error looked like a TCP/IP error.
The problem was with the AntiVirus software. I had to completly remove CA Security suite from my system. After removal, no problem to see library and share music, movies and pictures. Not sure what the conflict is, but apparently Itunes home sharing and Antivirus / Security software do not like each other.

ati3duag.dll
You're having trouble with the drivers for your ATI Radeon video card or display adapter, lord.
If you've got a name brand PC and the video card or display adaptor came installed with the PC, head to the drivers and downloads page for your particular model of PC at the PC manufacturers website and try updating your video driver or display adaptor driver.
If the PC is custom/home-built, or you've added the Radeon to the system yourself, head to the AMD support website (AMD now owns ATI) and look for updated drivers for your particular model of video card or display adaptor.
If you're already up to date on your drivers, or updating didn't help with the BSOD, try heading into your Device manager and reinstalling your video drivers or Display adaptor drivers.
Do any of those measures give you any relief?

Itunes 8 acting like a virus on vista - not blue screen

Hey, I just downloaded and installed the latest version of itunes onto my windows vista, and it caused the computer to act weird like it had a virus or something, now whenever I try to delete it from the computer it tells me I "don't have permission to do that" like itunes has locked itself into the computer.. Also often when I right click on a file a random message pops up and says that windows is searching for a solution for the problem, then it takes me back to the desktop and closes any programs I have open.. This is not the blue screen so many people have reported, it's just screwing up my computer and has locked itself in so it can't be deleted

My Library files are still on the C drive as the instructions said to leave them there
While it is implied that I can move ITunes music files off my C drive to make more space
Quote: "If your hard drive is nearly full after loading all your music and other media into iTunes, or if you just want to move all those music and media files to another hard drive on your system, here's a way to make the move while retaining all your playlists, ratings, and play history."
In fact I now see that ITunes Help seems to suggest something different. I got here by pressing the question mark while in the pop up box for "Edit, Preferences, Advanced"
Quote:
"By default, songs and other files you import into iTunes are placed here:
My Documents/My Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
Hide
To change the default location of imported files:
Choose Edit > Preferences, and click Advanced.
Click Change and select a new location for your files.
From now on, new songs and other items you import are stored in the new location. Songs you’ve already imported stay in their current location. (emphasis mine)
To restore the iTunes Media folder as the default storage location, click Reset (in the Advanced pane of iTunes preferences)."

HELP PLEASE!! Boot problems with Snow Leopard (Blue Screen Loop)

Hi guys!
My MacBook (the model before the current one) wont boot up. It started stuttering and acting strange and then froze so I did a force restart. It then loaded all the way up until a blue screen when the mouse appears and can be moved. This flickers off after a few moments (the screen dims) and then comes back. The process repeats as if in some infinite loop.
The main problem is that I've lost my snow leopard disc so I'm pretty limited to what I can do until I can borrow / buy another one and I need to get my laptop back up right away for work.
I've tried booting in safe mode, no joy
I then tried to repair the drive in fsck, which repaired something. I did it again and it said all was ok but then booting stuck at the same place.
Finally I read on another forum that removing /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security.plist fixed login loop issues. I attempted this in single user mode but it said the file didnt exist?
Can anyone help me out here? I'm pretty stressed out as all my work stuff is on there for my new job...
Thanks!!

I had this same problem -- machine would boot, but loop at two blue screens before the login window. I sshed into the machine and checked /private/var/log/system.log and /var/log/secure.log which showed a unexpected character in /etc/authorization. Basically, the authorization file was corrupted (most likely by bad RAM.) The solution was to replace this file with one copied from another machine. I didn't match models, but did match OS when copying the file (i don't know if this matters at all), and as soon as the "cp" command was entered, the login window popped up. <-- totes awesome. The machine has been reliable since (all of 15 minutes)

Crashes with dbs dreaded blue screen when loading certain sites -

Periodically - probably twice a week I load a screen that causes Firefox to crash - I get the dread blue screen so can't get stats although I do see errors when I log back in and bring up firefox.
You have the right config details.
Let me know what other info I can send you
By the way - when I restart Firefox it generally gives me the Oops message and lets me pick whether I want to continue or restart - I restart as if I don't I get blue screen again

Although turning off java script did help on many websites, it didn't solve the problem on all of them, but that could be the website itself.
Unfortunately I had to turn java script back on again because most forums or discussion group web sites seem to use it somewhere.
Only turning it on when required didn't work either because you have to start safari for the change to take effect.
However, one thing I noticed - and it happens quite consistently - if the download stops (As seen in the status bar at the top), if you the click on the 'stop' and then on the 'reload' button, the site loads right away on the second try.
Would that confirm that the issue is with java script or would that point to another problem with these sites?

Pavilion with vista can i custom install windows 7 or 8?

seems we over paid for a blue screen. It had vista, now nothing. Wondering if we can
custom install Windows 7 or 8? Thanks

Whoa I am understanding very little here. What did you overpay for? Blue screen? Now nothing? What model is it? As a general rule if it runs Vista it will run 7 and likely even 8. But of course you will have to buy Windows 7 or 8 to make it legal. If you want detailed help we really need to know your specific model number and if you are having problems I hate to tell you to try to install software on defective hardware.

X200 with OCZ ssd blue screens when booting from docking station

The x200 blue screens when booting from the docking station. If I take the laptop out of the docking station to boot and then dock once booted the laptop is fine.
The issue started happening when you I upgraded the laptop form xp to windows 7 and installed an OCZ vertex 2 solid state drive.
I have tried updating the firmware on the ssd using this utility
http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/detail.page?LegacyDocID=MIGR-69806
The program showed that my ssd was running firmware version 1.29 and did not need to be updated.
I have also tried updating the x200 to the latest BIOS. Nothing seems to work.
Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Solved!

My daughters Ipod Touch is stuck with a black/blue screen. She downloaded the game Breakaway from the App store yesterday and today she opened the game it said this game is not connected to game centers and the screen went black/blue reset didn't work

She downloaded the game Breakaway from the App store yesterday and today when she opened the game it said "this game is not connected to game centers" and the screen went black/blue. I tried resetting without the power adapter and with the power adapter and nothing happens. She has only had the Itouch for 2 weeks.

I did try that numerous times and nothing happened. However, I did eventually get it to work. After trying to reset it numerous times and the screen still just staying frozen I logged into the Home Share portion on the Home computer and deleted the Bubble Birds game. Eventually the Itouch died and I was finally able to reset it by plugging it in and holding down the buttons. I doubt the deletion of the game helped, but since it seemed to be the cause, I went ahead and deleted it. Thank you for your reply.
