# OT:Need help on computer problem (long)

Posted by Chad ('89 SE ; 01 IS300) on October 01, 2003 at 17:43:48: [b]Com spec:[b/] b4: AMD 1ghz FIC AZ11E with 3 slots for PC133 ram. 2x256mb PC133 (one is older (oem w/ micron chips) the other is newer bought direct from Crucial) SB live ATI Redeon 7200 64ddr ram 30 Gb Quantum ATA-100 WinMe After: everything the same WinXP Pro [b]Here's the situation:[/b] My comp recently got some kind of virus which NAV could't fix. So I quarantiened it. After that, the comp won't boot. When it try to boot from CD, it hang again. (both ME and XP CDs) These is what happen exactly: 1. comp hang, I pushed reset 2. during loading, NAV warning C:\windows\system32\..... file has virus 3. I chose quarantien. 4. comp dead. I was like fuck it and left it alone for a night. The next day, it somehow managed to boot from CD. I figure mind a well do an upgrade to XPpro. Well, after it did a pre-install scan, I got a blue screen error with PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA with code of 0x00000050. I researched Microsoft website and it recommend me to switch ram location, or remove bad ram. I did that and every thing went fine. When i finished installing, SP1 and all other fix and patch, I try to put back the other ram back in. Well, now I got error again. Most of the time it happen when window finish loading and trying to get to logon screen. Sometime I get to actuall use it for like 5 min then blue screen. The errors are now either PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA or DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I took out the ram, comp work fine. I switch the ram, comp work fine. I put both back, comp = f0xor!. I ran several memory test(from floppy boot disk) and find no errors whatsoever with either ram. I talked to crucial and they recommended me to flash bios. I did that and the problem is still there. Now, they blame on the drivers. [b] So anyone know how to fix this problem? I'm thinking about go back to WinMe Also, is it normal to have that led running for like 40 times for XP to load? Takes forever. [/b] Replys: hmmm MrGone (92SE) 20:39:05 10/01/2003 (4) Maybe I wasn't being clear. Chad ('89 SE ; 01 IS300) 00:17:56 10/02/2003 (3) oh easy then MrGone (92se) 22:09:22 10/02/2003 (0) Pervis seems right.... atomix (sold) 06:53:03 10/02/2003 (0) Obviously, you have a defective RAM module. Use the good one until you can replace the other. n/m Pervis Anathema ('91 SE) 06:15:17 10/02/2003 (0)
