This isn't really a security related thread, it's more of a problem. I have a lappy, and every so often it decides to come up with a Blue Screen saying that Windows has had a problem and needs to shut down (or something like that) and I have to restart. That has been happening for about 2 yrs now, and I want it to stop, because I'm fed up of it. The past couple of times it has happened, I have noted what it said. Here are a few or the STOP messages:
Code:*** STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x804E7440, 0xF3B63A40, 0X00000000)
NB to above: my graphics card is S3 Twister K Graphics...Code:*** STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0xBF9D903E, 0xF43EE6E4, 0x00000000)
*** s3gnb.dll - Address BF9D903E base at BF9D3000, DateStamp 3C17F0F6
All the above ones have just happened when I have been on the internet, looking at a large Word document, etc...Code:*** STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0xBF814042, 0xF3933F0, 0x00000000)
*** win32k.sys - Address BF814042 base at BF800000, DateStamp 41107f7a
The one below happened when I was resuming Windows after hibernation:
If anyone knows how to fix this problem, please let me know, because it is a real pain when you are doing something important and you computer restarts! I have found something useful here, which has stopped the error message restarting my computer automatically, so I have time to write it down. Here there is a more detailed description of each error message with links to M$' website but I haven't been able to find out how to fix it.Code:KERNEL_STACK_INPAGE_ERROR
*** STOP: 0x00000077 (0x00000001, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0xF46F795C)
I emailed the editor of PcStats.com who gave me a few tips and also said it could be a memory corruption, with a link to an article on his website about "Diagnosing Bad Memory". I have used both MemTest86+ and DocMem but both have come up as "Pass". Can someone please tell me what to do?
Thanks in advance,
