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.

i get a black screen during windows 7 installation on bootcamp 5.0.1 , it wont install

Hi wb2009,
I haven't found that the TV would be an issue, but did find an article that states to not have extra USB devices connected.
Boot Camp: Windows installation boots to black screen with blinking cursor
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4536
The Windows installation may boot to a black screen with a blinking cursor. This can occur if you use a USB optical drive or USB Flash drive for the Windows installation and another USB device is also connected to the computer.
There's another article that mentions Windows XP or Vista that may apply.

Getting light blue screen during startup for 3-5 Seconds

I get a light blue screen during start up for about 3-5 seconds. It shows the spinning image for loading, once its done that goes away and then it goes light blue for couple seconds then back to the white page with the apple logo then brings me to the user login page. It also takes longer then usual to start up, load dock and the menu bar. I've read around and it seems people are saying its normal? but this just started happening.

Which model Macbook Pro do you have?
It also takes longer then usual to start up, load dock and the menu bar.
How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left?

Why do I get a blue screen using USB communication?

Hello,
My problem is that sometimes I get a blue screen using USB communication. I guess that most of the time the problem is an overflow in memory, so I read all the data that is on the port with which I communicate. I read two ports so there are two similar VIs that are used. There is how I do it:
I also communicate with a logger to acquire 16 channels. I read the information from the logger in two different parts of the program at the same time. Maybe this can cause an issue, but could it cause a blue screen? This is how I do it:
I once had a blue screen after the VI was closed, so there is how I manage to close the communication when I quit:
Do you think there can be any problem coming from one of these parts of my LV project? If not, what else can cause a blue screen in LabVIEW?

Are you using USB to GPIB (doubtful because you are using bytes at port)? But, just inc ase, I had this problem also with USB to GPIB, and it ended up being a driver issue I believe. If you are using USB to GPIB driver that was released with LV2012, search for the latest 2012 driver on NIs site, download it, and use that. See if it fixes your problem

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.

My iMac is frozen on a blue screen during an update software for snow leopard. What do I do? Turn off my imac?

My iMac is frozen on a blue screen during an update of software for snow leopard. What do I do? Should I turn off the computer?

do a hard shutdown of the mac (holding down the power button until it shuts off) then do an SMC reset, the following article tells how to do this:

after doing this reset and restarting the mac, try again to install the update.

MSI NF980-G65 Blue Screen during Windows XP Install - HELP !!!

I have a MSI NF980-G65 motherboard and it works great with Windows 7 but I can't install Windows XP Home edition 32 bit. Win XP checks hardware, then loads all initial files and when the blue screen with the license agreement should pop open I get a blue screen with an error message that says the computer was stopped to prevent damage to the hardware, that the HDD might not have enough room on it and/or the BIOS might need updating.
The HDD has Win 7 on it and it's a 250GB drive so there should be more than enough room on the HDD and the NF980 came with the latest BIOS v1.4
Anyone have any experience and a fix so I can install Win XP ? Thanks

Then the problem is elsewhere, as that was fixed with SP1.
Or his disk doesn't even contain that level.
However, when pre-partitioned to NTFS even without SP1 should install.
I doubt the problem is his CDrom.
What he needs to do is get http://www.bootdisk.com/ntfs.htm
Run NTFS4DOS and do a checkdisk.
Yes that will solve his problem, as Windows (from 2000 to W7) are to stupid to do a checkdisk when the disk is in a certain state.
And even a Windows bootdisk can't solve it and crashed with the error he has.
Only Linux or NTFS-DOS can do a check disk and restore the error M$-NTFS makes it failing too boot or reinstall.

Why can't I access my own wifi? why do I get a blue screen on start up or after watching a netflix movie, and why is it getting so hot?

My mac has been showing a blue screen on start up and before shut down, especially after netflix. Is it silverlight? Why can't I get on my own wifi? It defaults to a linkys public network, I try to access the secure network, type my password, enter, and I get connection timeout.

I was re-decorating my blogger .. then I got the 'Bad Request Error 400' .. I re-formatted my computer, reloaded all .. I can now access my Blogger sites .. Don't know what the problem is/was, but I solved it by reloading my computer to Out-of-Box condition, and all is perfect now .. I have an alert set up for this Error 400 .. Masses of people are having problems daily ..

Blue Screen during Windows install on SATA Raid1

Hi Folks!
I have a BIG problem with my brand new Eclipse SLI.
I can't install Windows (tried Vista and XP x64). It crashes already in the beginning!!!
I'm not an OC,yet so all my settings are like default or AUTO. Only my memory I set to 1600 through automatic settings.
Flashed in a brand new 1.6 BIOS.
Now, anytime I start the Windows setup if crashes with a blue screen when it comes to the point it tries to access the hard discs.
I was already able to set up a new partition and then Visat was extracting files. But after a few minutes (1% finished) it crash.
The blue screen indicates that it had problems to write a file.
Thing is ... it's always at different times, but still at the beginning of the setup. Sometime it don't get the setup even running.
I tried the Drive Booster RAID and the JMicron. Always created a new RAID1!
Sometimes the board freezed even by entering the BIOS.
I already figured it my be to hot.
Here my temperatures. CPU: 28- 35C, IOH: 50-68C, System: 35C
But I already read that IOH temperatur seems normal.
So what's the problem?
PLEEEEEAAAASSEEEEE HEEEEEEEEEELP !!!!

Thanks!
Found myself a solution. Deactivated all additional features in the BIOS. Now it'S working even with 1600 RAM frequency.
Trying now to still do some OC without getting into the same trouble.

Why do I get a dark screen in Windows 7 after Boot Camp?

Hello fellows!
What is wrong?
About this week I have tried to install Windows – Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit – on my MacBook Pro(Early 2011-model). Everything works perfectly, except one thing! The screen.
Before I am installing the drivers from Windows Support the screen is lightly and everything, but after the restart, everything on the screen goes dark. I have tried to find the correct drivers, but then it tells me that: I don't have to correct Graphic adapter.
I have to graphic cards: an AMD Radeon HD 6750M and an Intel HD Graphics 3000.
Yesterday I downloaded a program known as gfxCardStatus – a program, which can switch between the graphic cards on your computer –, and I tried it.
Before installing this program I knew that Mac OS X was running the Intel-model, when Windows 7 was running the AMD. Then, I switched from Intel to AMD on MAC OS X, then I booted up Windows and reinstalled the drivers from WindowsSupport, and everything worked properly! Until I rebooted to get multicore working.
I was so frustrated that I gave up and waited for today. Then this morning I tried to do the same thing, to get a lightly screen again. But a terrible thing happened. Mac OS X got the same problem. But after some time working things out it worked properly.. On Mac OS X!
What can you do for me?
I hope you can tell me what is wrong with the Boot Camp. I really want Windows to run properly. I cannot accept a dark screen, and I hope somebody out there has experience and at the same time got the awesome personality to help me through this problem.
Operating System on Mac: Mac OS X Lion.
Opereating System on Windows: Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit
Have a nice day, everybody.

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

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.

Why do I get a blue screen when I use the NIDAQ driver.

I get IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.
Address fc792324 has base at fc6f8000 Nidaq32.sys and Address fc7028e3 has base at fc6f8000 Nidaq32.sys.
The system is running on Windows NT 4.0. The application is built using Application Builder and LabView 5.1.1. The NIDAQ 6.9.0 is used.
Please help me.

uffe:
You seek...Yoda...Help you...I...will..
This is a kernel mode problem with your NIDAQ32.SYS driver. I believe
that you can pretty much rule out problems with LV5.1.1 or app
builder. Your problem
You have run into a classic BSOD message. It may not always occur so
it can be really frustrating to diagnose. There may be some
workarounds you can implement at the application level but it still
needs to be fixed at the kernel (O/S) level so you're going to need to
contact NI.
I've had this same problem error message in the past but not with DAQ
cards. As I recall, in one case there was a problem with a spinlock
in the SCSI driver (.sys) file which protected access to the hardware
I was using.
What is a spin lock? A spin lock is a special synchronization
construct used by device driver developers to protect access to
critical sections of their code usually for hardware access. It is
the kernel mode equivalent to a VISA resource lock or a semaphore in
LabVIEW.
For more on spin locks see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/kmarch/hh/kmarch/k101_97hu.asp
Work-around Possibility #1: Do you have two different parts of your
code trying to access the DAQ card simultaneously? If so, providing
your own VISA resource locks or semaphores at the application level
may cure the problem even if the kernel mode driver is failing to
protect access to the card like it should.
Even if this fixes the problem PLEASE report it to NI so that they can
fix it properly in the .sys file and let other users know that the
workaround I suggested works.
See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/network/hh/network/103ndisx_7mk2.asp
Work-around Possibility #2: I don't know the details of setting up
your DAQ card so if this question doesn't make any sense don't worry
about it. Are you setting up the card with some empty array, zero
memory size, or empty string value or something? I had this problem
with a reflective memory card driver.
Sometimes this can screw up a driver that isn't checking for this sort
of thing with the result of it trying to reference a null ptr or
something. Again, even if you fix the problem by error checking the
values before you give them to the DAQ driver VI, make sure you tell
NI about it.
This explanation also jibes with what Microsoft has to say on
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/w2kmsgs/6077.asp
3) There may be other explanations for your problem but these are two
that I've run into personally. Try going to www.microsoft.com and
doing a search on IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL if my two possibilities
aren't the cause of your problem.
4) Make sure you have the latest driver from NI for the NIDAQ. NI may
have already fixed your problem in a later version of the NIDAQ
driver.
5) Also I would recommend making sure that you have the latest service
pack (SP6A) installed or that you go ahead and upgrade to Win2000. As
I recall when I had my one of my driver problems it was with an
earlier SP release and upgrading SP's helped.
6) If none of these suggestions help, you need to call NI help line
(800-IEE-E488) and report this to see if they know about it so that
they can give you a work around and see if they can recreate the
problem and then fix it.

Lenovo 1051 blue-screened during windows 10 update

Hello, I downloaded the Windows 10 update and in the middle of the update, the tablet crashed. I'm receiving a start up message saying my tablet needs to restart. It restarts then give error code 0x0000225. It says press windows key to access UEFI tools. Press the windows key nothing happens. After boot i've held f8 and looked at the boot options and nothing. I've held f10 and went to some weird BIOS command type screen, it appears my recovery partition has been corrupted during the update. Not really sure what left to do. I've looked all over the place and no one seems to be in the same situation. I really hope I didn't just brick the whole thing when I got it last september. THANKS FOR ANY HELP IN ADVANCE! Jordan

I had a similar issue with my Tablet Lenovo MIIX 2 8. I was not able to reset my PC using the recovery tool. You may want to try and build a Win10 USB bootable and boot/install from the USB. I was able to refresh my Tablet with a clean install and works like charm now. Hope this helps.

While finalizing I get the blue screen and my laptop shuts down? HELP!

I pasted the diagnostic thing below but dont understand why I keep getting that blue screen and my computer to shut down on me. I have tried a couple of different brands of c.d.'s and can't figure it out. The computer is 2-3 months old I dont get it. Please help!

I recently purchased Norton stuff and loaded it but dont know how to do all that stuff you said to do.
okay.
was that Norton Internet Security 2006? if so, right-click on the yellow ticky-Norton thing down in your task bar, and select "Norton Protection Center". click the LiveUpdate button. install everything it says is available at LiveUpdate. restart the PC if it asks you to.
open Norton Protection Center again. click on "Norton AntiVirus". click on "Scans". click on "Run full system scan".
once that's finished, and you've dealt to everything that shows up, do a spyware scan. if you don't have an antispyware program, download and install the free trial version of Ewido, and scan your PC with that.
ewido anti-malware download
once that's finished, and you've dealt to anything that shows up, go to the Symantec website (they make your Norton), and run one of their online virus scans. they take an eternity, so you may want to do that overnight:
Symantec Security Check
to do a disk cleanup, go "start > all programs > accessories > system tools > disk cleanup"
to run chkdsk (that's a disk checking/repair utility in Windows), close all active programs, go into My Computer, right-click on your hard drive, select "properties", click on the "tools" tab, and click the "check now" button.
to do a disk defrag, go "start > all programs > accessories > system tools > disk defragmenter"
