I get a blue screen on Windows 7 startup via bootcamp (Lion OS)

My Windows 7 works fine via VMWare Fusion, however since having upgrading to Lion:
1. Get a blue screen hardware issue starting up directly in Windows which appears just after the Windows startup animation. Using the windows repair doesn't seem to do anything.
2. Bootcamp now missing from the Mac OS 'Start up' target disk.
Has anyone solved these problems?
Infuriating that Apple have released Lion and it buggers up Bootcamp. I do not wish to go throught the process of partitioning and reinstalling Windows again as it takes days because I have to install Vista and wait a while for Windows to eventually install both service packs before I can then install the Windows 7 upgrade disk. It took approxiamtely 2 days of time to do this!!!
Thank you.

I can easily get into Windows. It is just that the drivers don't seem to work correct, and makes the screen dark.

Why am I getting a blue screen during windows support software installation?

After intalling windows 7 x64 (using boot camp 5.1), when I come to install windows support software to set up apple drivers for windows to run on my MacBook pro (late 2013), after installing a good number of drivers, I get suddenly a blue screen!....
What can I do, once windows is not strting up? It started well, but wth no proper drivers. Thanks.

I guess the first thing I would do would be to boot up using the original installation DVD and correct the permissions. That may not be the problem at all, it could be an incomplete upgrade install but at least you would know it isn't a permissions problem. I'd also run or verify the hard disk using this method.
How is it done? Turn machine on. Insert DVD 1 of the Install Disks, restart the machine, hold down the Command and the C keys (that tells the machine to look to the Rom drive and boot from it). Once it is up (will take a long minute or so...) go up to the top left where the install menu buttons are listed, look for the disk utility and run it. Tell it to verify and repair the disk and repair the permissions. Once done, quit the Disk Utility and select the restart option. Wait to see if your original desktop comes back.
If not, then you'll need to either "back out" the upgrade you installed or install your backup. If you don't have a backup you'll probably have to re-install OS X all over again (and probably lose all your previous data, apps, etc.). Let's hope it clears up first before you have to re-install.

Can't get past blue screen on Windows partition

I have been using bootcamp for a little over a month now. It had been working great. But suddenly today, Windows will not boot up- It stays on a blue screen, and gives me options to restart (which does nothing) and Advanced Options (which none of the methods help)- and basically it won't start up.
That makes me wonder, if there is anything I can do to fix the problem- or must I delete the bootcamp partition, and then start all over again? Good news is that my Windows 8.1 is the Full version, and not an OEM version.
Thanks for any advice

My mistake, Safe Mode disables DVD player...
Perhaps re-installing 10.5.8 Combo Update while in Safe Mode might help.

Blue screen in windows 7

I have been getting the blue screen after windows has been running for a while. Sometimes it happens when I am trying to install something. I have uploaded minidump files to the sky drive but I can't seem to read them, I tried copying and pasting them to
the desktop and opening them as notepad files but all I get is gibberish, at least it is to me. I need to know how to make these accessible to the pros so I can repair this problem. I have the Technical information from the blue screen here:
A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval.
*** stop 0x000000101 (0x0000000000000031, 0x0000000000000000, 0xFFFFF88002FD3180, 0x0000000000000003)
Don't know if this helps but there it is.

Disk error check was inconclusive ( I walked away and when I returned windows had loaded ) I assume this means that no errors were found.
RAM scanned and no errors were found.

These worked but were inconclusive 0oease run driver verifier to pin down the misbehaving driver.
These crashes were related to memory management (probably caused by a driver).
Please run these tests to verify your memory and find which driver is causing the problem. Since this appears to be a driver I would start with driver verifier.
If you are overclocking (pushing the components beyond their design) you should revert to default at least until the crashing is solved. If you don't
know what it is you probably are not overclocking.

On startup Mac Pro I get a blue screen and a cursor on the upper left. The mouse cursor shows up independently. Is it likely a video card failure?

On startup Mac Pro I get a blue screen and a cursor on the upper left. The mouse cursor shows up independently. Is it likely a video card failure?

I managed to boot the computer and get the desktop to show. I now have a "repaired" computer. There are several problems that have cropped up. One is that I can only start up now in Safe Boot mode. Is there a way to turn it off? Also, I do not have a sound list, so I can't access anything requiring audio. Google Chrome only shows up as a white screen. Pictures that loaded before don't load in browsers, etc. Any suggestions? I figure I should reinstall Mac OS Lion for starts, maybe even do a mirror backup and reformat the drive. I think this drive has turned into scrambled eggs...what a headache!

I am trying to connect my iPad to my windows pc ( xp) but it does not recognise the iPad and I get a blue screen error causing the pc to shut down. Any ideas

I am still not able to connect my iPad 2 to my Pc ( windows xp). When I try to do so I get a blue screen error and the computer shuts down. I have reinstalled iTunes. iPod works fine. Any ideas?

Not sure, but try these.
Disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the Sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut Off. To power up hold the Sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time (for about 10-15 seconds) until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider), then let go of the buttons.

I HAVE A SONY VAIO WITH WINDOWS VISTA- SUDDENLY I'M GETTING A BLUE SCREEN (crash dump)THAT SHUTS DOWN MY COMPUTER. HOW DO I STOP THIS. ALREADY TRIED TO UNINSTALL AND RE INSTALL. MAY NOT HAVE DONE IT CORRECTLY ?

LAST WEEK STARTED GETTING A BLUE SCREEN (CRASH DUMP) AFTER CLOSING I TUNES, THAT CAUSES MY COMPUTER TO SHUTDOWN. IVE BEEN TOLD BY A PC REPAIR SHOP THAT I DONT HAVE A VIRUS.

Hey Ishland,
You are not alone. I'm getting the same thing I'm running Vista. I'm reading that Windows 8, 8.1 preview, Vista and XP.
I'm thinking this has to be a Apple update to iTunes 11.0.4.4 fix.
Cheers,
Steve

I get the blue screen whenever I try to install the bootcamp drivers in windows 7

I just recently installed windows 7 home on my 2011 imac useing bootcamp.
Everything seemed to install fine however whenever I try to run the bootcamp drivers in windows to get my mouse and wifi and all that to work I get a blue screened.
Any Ideas?
Ive followed the exact instructions from the manual for OSX and nothing seems to work.

Question: Does the Windows disk that you are using have SP2 (Service Pack 2)? In other words, is your version of Windows a FULL version (and not an upgrade version) of XPSP2 Home Edition?
Having SP2 is a requirement to have XP installed on an intel Mac.
If you already have the right version then I am not sure what exactly the issue may be.

Lately, I've been getting a blue screen in the midst of working and have to do a cold reboot to end it. Seems to happen when I'm closing windows or quitting applications. Not always, but sporadically. What causes this? I'm using 10.6.8 on early 2011 MBP.

You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

Far as your Safari problem do these things until it's resolved:
1: Software Update fully under the Apple menu.
2: Check the status of your plug-ins and update (works for all browsers) also install Firefox and see if your problems continue. You should always have at least two browsers on the machine just in case one fails.

MacBook Pro won't boot (question mark folder) after blue screen on windows bootcamp

Hi,
So, I was on windows, using bootcamp, and I was creating partitions on a pen drive with it, and then it asks me that it needs to restart to apply changes.
But then, while restarting, a blue screen occurred (**** windows).... And I forced the shutdown pressing the power key.
Then, I simply turned the MacBook on, trying to boot on my snow leopard and I got a flashing folder with a question mark on it.
Now I can't access any partitions on it, if I press option key on startup I get a blank window!
I tried to reset PRAM, repair the MacOs partition using the snow leopard DVD (it shows up fine, along with windows partition and EFI partition), and I still don't get my startup disk showing up...
How can I fix this? I can't loose my files and I need to work with it :/

I just fixed it!
For future reference, what I did was:
- Booting from OSX DVD, go to disk utility
- Erase windows partition (yap, I lost it...)
- Do a "repair disk" on every partition of my hard drive
- Restart
And it just worked ;)
Thankfully I had no important files on my windows partition, now I will just reinstall it.

Blue screen on windows 7 notebook

I got a blue screen on my notebook mini 210 -2190NR
Everytime i used my notebook, it always had to install updates before it shut down. But last time i used it though, i was able to shut down without any update.
The next time i used it, i was able to log in windows fine. But once i went browsing on the internet with a couple of tabs open, my notebook's cooling fan started doing a loud noise then it gave me the blue screen and it shut down.
Once i booted again, it took me to the Windows error recovery black screen with two options:
Launch startup repair or Start windows normally.
Neither of them worked, once i start windows normally it loads up to the black screen with the loading bar, then it shows me the blue screen again for a second and goes back to the beginning screen. Then it tells me:
No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
I tried inserting my windows 7 recovery USB but it showed me the same message after pressing any key.
I tried booting from the recovery USB and on the system recovery options, the list is empty where it says operating system, partition size, and location.
When it takes me to the window to choose a recovery tool, underneath it says, Operating system: Unknown on (Unknown) Local disk.
Choosing system restore it tells me i must specify which windows installation to restore.
Does anyone know what to do to fix this?? Thank you in advance.

I'm getting "MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION" blue screens

But this is not the same as the other guys :/
this computer is about 3 months old and just started to get this error 2 days ago..."MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION" What the hell does that mean???
I was started a game, went to the track to start racing and I was sitting at 2 frames per second. For 3 months with this computer I've been getting avg of 100-140fps. So i turn the game off, as soon as i turn it off i get a Blue screen then it rebooted!!! It rebooted fine at that point. I try another game UT2004, play for about 30 mins, shut off the game, BAM!!!! Blue screen again!!! I figure, "ok i need to reinstall xp".
So i reinstall xp, I load the K8N Neo mobo drivers, reboot, works fine. Install Audio Drivers, I get a blue screen "MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION" on boot, I uninstall it, works fine. I install SP1, blue screen"MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION" on reboot, I uninstall and install SP2, works fine. Odd? Yes, I think so.... Now I've tried all kinds of combos here between the BIOS and whats installed. Most commonly ON board sound enabled, and the sound drivers NOT installed, i will not get a Blue screen...Most commonly. Out of about 50 reboots to test this theory, when every i install the sound device's drivers i get the error. So i'm thinking it has something to do with the drivers are conflicting with the hardware. But, this same computer has been working fine for 3 months prior to 2 days ago. I dont get it!!! Did my mobo go bad? Is there anything out there that can fix this, something i need to look at. I shouldn't have to use a sound card because the mobo's onboard sound is suppose to be fine. Any help please!
Thanks

Thanks I'll give it a try... also I got this answer for other forums maybe some one can help with this
interesting... machine_check_exception is a hardware related issue. typically caused with hardware and pentium processors, buti guess in your case its a little different. straighe from microsoft: "A machine check exception occurs when Windows XP and your hardware platform cannot recover from a hardware error so that the system can continue to run successfully and reliably. More specific diagnosis of machine check exceptions is difficult, and there is no general solution." You've got a beast of a computer there, so i really don't see why you'd be having much problem... i've heard overclocking is a common cause of this error, so if you are... change that. If that doesn't do it it could be your power supply, over heating, or bad memory. "
I'm not overclocking, and he did menition "bad Memory" So in moving that around I guess I'll have to try one stick at a time or both?
