Win 2000 Pro (SP4) keeps re-booting itself

[PhilliePhan]

I'll see if I can find my win2k iso....if I do, I'll send you the file PP. I make no guarantees though.

Thanks . . . But my personal compy is XP.
And, the one I use for most work is, gasp, ME. LOL!

I could probably dl dumpchk.exe from M$, I suppose....

So is mine, but with the ISO I would have the CD and might be able to find dumpchk.

That'd be cool if you could attach dumpchk.exe for us

[Gizmokid2005]

I'll see what I can do.

Check this link PP it might help.

Finished dump check


Definitely looks to be a driver issue, but I am not seeing the exception code or exception address.... 'course, it's not as though I read these every day...

Perhaps Driver Verifier needs to be run?

What do you think, Giz?

I agree with the driver verification.

You did mention that you installed a new NIC. Try removing the drivers for the NIC. They may have an issue. First try the driver verifier first.

Hi Folks,

Just got up and running yesterday.

I wanted to let you know what happened, as you two were nice enough to try to help me.

I used verifier.exe. Got a BSOD AND couldn't even boot up using safe mode. I didn't have an off-line registry application to use to turn off verifier.exe.

Ended up removing the drive, putting in another with a fresh copy of the OS and slaved the "bad" drive so I could salvage my files.

Thanks for all your help, Gizmokid2005 and PhilliePhan!!

We're happy to try to help

Sorry we couldn't be of much assistance. These sorts of problems are among the most difficult to diagnose in support forums - or at home in front of the actual machine for that matter.

In retrospect, we probably should have suggested installing the Recovery Console or some other option in anticipation of further problems...

At the very least, this underscores the need for people to backup their HDs with a tool such as Acronis True Image or one of the many freeware alternatives.

Best
