    « on: November 16, 2008, 10:25:24 PM »
    Hi guyz i have something very wrong with my computer,
    after we had a power out i found that the computer was bringing up a screen telling me what i want to do in regards to starting up the pc, and so i clicked on windows start up normally and then i catch a glimpse of the windows xp loading bar and a blue screen followed which went something like this:

    A problem has been detected and Windows has been shutdown to prevent damage to your computer. If this is the first time you have seen this message restart your computer otherwise do the following;
    Disable or uninstall any antivirus,disk defragmentation or back-up utilities, check your hard drive configuration and check for any updated drivers. Run CHDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption then restart your computer.
    ***STOP: 0x00000024(0x00190203,0x82cc0830,0xC0000102,0x00000000)
    thanx for your help, anything is muchly appreciated

    When you get back to that black screen, choose Safemode.
    Can you get into windows now?

    WE need more info.

    List as much about your computer as possible. This includes operating system (what version of Windows you are using), service packs, computer make/model, RAM, hard drive, sound and video cards, current adware/spyware/virus programs being used on a regular basis, do you have a "real" Windows CD, etc.

      unfortunately no, i have tried all the options which were safe mode,safe mode(networking),safe mode(with command prompt),previous working xp settings and also start windows normally


      System details
      Windows XP SP3
      512MB Ram
      Amd Athlon Processor(unsure about model)
      Nvidia GeForce Graphics Card
      its only just had the problem as of today
      i think it might be because the drives need to be defragged but cannot access the computers desktop
      thanx

          You will need an XP CD to repair your computer. Do you know anyone that has one?

            You need to have the exact same version of XP as the one on the disk. We should be able to save your data and repair the install.
