Restarting After a Blue Screen Stop Error

I have received a Blue Screen Stop Error on my Toshiba Satellite 5200 Series laptop.
I could report it here, in full, if that would be helpful. However, it begins by telling me to restart the machine but the unit's Power button is not allowing me to switch it off.
What action should I take ?

Crikey ! Someone at another forum just told me to hold the button down for 5 seconds..... and it worked !

  • Critical error, blue screen stop error

    after installing installation CD today, my laptop keeps going to a blue screen reporting a STOP error.... a critical error, but can't reslove. Have now removed the iTunes and it hasn't happened yet.
    Maybe a conflict, I don't know.
    Dell Inspirion Laptop   Windows XP  

    I found the answer !  Turns out it is/was not a Win7 problem, but a drive problem.
    I was following some links on another Win7 forum and happened upon mention of SSD drives causing a BSOD.  The one in particular mentioned was a Crucial M4 SSD. It sounded familiar . . . I have one as my C: drive.  Turns out I needed a firmware
    update. The update corrects a condition where an incorrect response to a SMART power-on counter will cause the m4 drive to become unresponsive after 5184 hours of Power-on time. The drive will recover after a power cycle, however, this failure will repeat
    once per hour after reaching this point. 5184 hours is about 7.2 months. Just a bit under how long I've had this system.
    I applied the update . . . . . computer has been running seven hours now.
    Thanks to all who helped me here.

    Wanted to add for reference:
    The original post from Crucial acknowledging the issue.
    BSOD Crucial M4
    The fix is as simple as updating the firmware, but the hoops to jump through for the firmware update to take place is a bit frustrating.
    With my board, z68-v pro, it was necessary for me to go into the bios and change my controller mode to IDE. In addition I needed to remove the drive connected to the Marvell port and plug it into the Intel port as well as put my two ssd's on the first and
    second Intel ports. Once this was done I was able to get past the 'finding drives' screen and update the firmware for both ssd's. Once the update finished I went back into the bios and changed the controller mode back to AHCI. As i said, a frustrating experience
    but I commend Crucial for owning up to the issue rather than lead people to think their ssd's needed replacing or something was wrong with windows and subsequent unnecessary re-installs.

  • Blue Screen - STOP Error During XP Install

    I am trying to install Win XP on my new system and I keep getting a Blue Screen.  It boots off the DVD drive, loads all the initial system files and when it says "Windows Is Starting" it goes to a Blue Screen stating that an error has been detected and Windows has been shut down.
    I have the following:
    865PE Neo2-FIS2R
    P4 2.6GHz w/ 800MHz FSB
    Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2PRO 1GB DDR400 Memory
    Hitachi Deskstar 80Gb SATA Drive
    ATI Redeon 9600XT
    Thanks in advance!

    hi, i have found an interesting concern about windows xp and HTT.
    the HAL is decided on install, you can install with ht enabled, but if you dissable this in the bios later, your pc will still use multiprocessor HAL which will make the pc run hotter..
    this is due to hal is non changeable by the operator and is only configured on install of xp.(HTT dissabled= uniprocessor HAL, HTT Enabled= Multiprocessor HAL)
    so you install xp with HT on, and later dissable it due to coruption or what ever.. your pc will still run the HAL MULTIPROCESSOR DRIVERS and no longer enter sleep mode where the cpu will slow down at low useage state causing it to constantly consume power, thus heating the cpu more than when HTT is enabled.lol.
    but, there is another twist in this little problem.
    windows xp (before sp1 was added) installed all the correct HAL drivers for intel processors, BUT SP1 over writes these with the wrong ones!! namely ntoskrnl.exe
    and windows have no fix for this, only a work around. which is
    1. wait for the new service pack.
    2. re-install xp with/ without HTT enabled, which ever you require...
    BUT!!! if you have a version of xp, or xp pro with sp 1 on it, it won't matter, because the kernal drivers are wrong..
    how i laugh...
    now this doesn't answer my problem of "how the hell do i get xp to run HTT, but it does let me know that microsoft are at the bottom of it all...

  • Blue Screen Stop error

    I have experienced windows reboots due to stop error like 000000c2 or 100008e. First I have reinstalled windows and all the adjacent software, but it seems the problem keeps on hitting me again. Last week I have connected my notebook to internet and since then I have had two windows suddenly reboots. I don't think it's a virus 'cause I'm running Kaspersky, with a Sygate firewall and a Ad-Aware real time protection spyware shield. Could you please give me an advice regarding these issues.

    Hi Vlad
    Not easy to say what the problem can be but if you describe some problem you can give more info that can be useful. At the basis of your posting we can just speculate.
    Which unit you have?
    Some hardware upgrades (like memory)?
    Connected some external devices?
    If the problem persists after fresh OS installation I presume that there is some hardware problem.

    I understand you... I have almost the same errors... only difference is I have 865 PE board.
    I just CAN'T make this board stable.
    I can almost asure you your memory modules are right, I tested mine and they were OK.
    where you say 0x00000008 you mean 0x0000008E? because that's the error I was getting sometimes.
    I disabled shadow and caching in bios but that didn't work.
    I have other PC in my home with an intel 875P board. It never crashes. So I still don't know if I have to blame the board or my vga card or what...
    I am so tempted to buy an Asus P4P800...

  • My iPad Air crashed and won't restart after the blue screen of death. Can it be repaired in store, for how much and how long?

    My iPad Air keeps on crashing and then a blue background would come up. To make the iPad restart I have been doing the hold-down-the-home-button-and-start-button-at-the-same-time technique.  It's been a short term fix. Recently this has been occurring more often, this time I didn't press anything and it just went black.
    IM taking it to the Apple Store tomorrow I'm just wondering can it be repaired or will I have to buy a replacement or will I. Get a free replacement as the iPad is still under warranty. If it was repaired in store how long would it take and how much would it cost??

    Have you tried restoring to factory settings >  Restoring iPod to factory settings
    This is a usesr to user forum. You are not communicating direclty with Apple here.
    Whether or not they will replace the iPad is entirely up the representatives at the Apple Store. Hopefully the warranty will cover any repair costs.

  • Blue screen with error code and I have no recovery disks for HP Pavilion dv6-1260se

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6-1260se with factory installed operating system of Vista. When booting up the computer, I receive a blue screen with this error message: STOP:  c000021a {Fatal System Error}.
                                                                The verification of a KnownDLL failed.  system process terminated unexpectedly with

    I do not have recovery disks for this computer.  I tried to order them but them seem to not be available.  This is my daughter's computer.  She says she started to have trouble after downloading Frost Wire (music share) and then she removed it.  We tried going back to an earlier time and that didn't help and then the blue screen with error message appeared. What do I do now?
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Assuming your in the US, recovery discs are available to order for that model here.  That may be the best option.
    You should also be able to do a recovery without the discs as well.  Take a look at this document: Recover Windows Vista Operating System Using HP Recovery, and look for the section Restore the PC to its original condition with the HP Recovery Manager if Windows Vista is not accessible.  This should allow you to recover the PC.

    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button.

  • My phone keeps on looping with the apple logo after the blue screen.

    I tried to up date my iPhone 5s thru iTunes and got error statin iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. you must restore  this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes. Saw a video on you tube to use rec boot. So I downloaded rec boot v1.3 to try and kick it out of recovery mode and my phone keeps on looping with the white screen and black apple logo after the blue screen. I tried kicking it out with tiny umbrella and nothing happens. I was able to put the phone back in recovery mode and try using tiny umbrella while still connect to iTunes and hit exit recovery mode. under log tab it says sending exit recovery request to model # of the phone and nothing happen. My last option is to restore to factory settings which I don't want to do cause I would loose every thing. Can some one tell me I'm doing wrong or how to fix it. I would be greatly appreciate it the help. Thanks in advance. 

    Its looping because the iOS is not bootable which is why the iPhone booted to the ROM recovery mode.  Try using iTunes 12's 'Update' option when the iPhone is in recovery mode.

  • Blue screen fatal error messages - laptop always crashes and now won't even let me restore

    My dv6920ea laptop has developed a fault and keeps crashing with blue screen errors, such as "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL". The problem has become so bad that it happens everytime I turn the laptop on. The laptop ran "Windows memory diagnostic tool" which said that there was a hardware fault. I've tried running a full system recovery to factory setting but sometimes the laptop crashes, and when it doesn't it asks me to insert a windows disc, but my laptop didn't come with one. The laptop is a year and a half old. What can I do to fix this issue? I don't mind completely recovering the laptop to factory settings and I have most(!) of my files backed up.

    Hello djbless,
    You’re getting blue screens with error IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.
    Run diagnostics to make sure that you are not having a problem with any of the hardware.
    Turn off the computer.
    As you power it back on tap the F2 key. This will load hardware diagnostics.
    Run the startup test.
    Go to HP.com and update the drivers, there is a button that says Let HP scan your system for out-of-date and missing drivers and software
    Here is a link to the updates.
    Clicking the White Kudos star on the left is a way to say Thanks!
    Let me know how everything goes.
    Have a good day.

  • IPhone won't turn on after brief blue screen.

    My iPhone is currently broken, won't turn on after a blue screen appeared briefly. Won't even connect to my PC or iTunes. Won't even charge with my charger or using a new charger from a family member. Won't hard reboot by holding home top button. Anyone know what my situation is? Checked over the internet and couldn't find any similiar situations. Also this occured after i was browsing Reddit so nothing intense was occuring on my phone at the time.

    I'm afraid you'll have to get it looked at by visiting an Apple Store or Authorized Service Provider next to your place or by contacting Apple:
