I am getting the following error when I try to boot up XP:

*** STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xBA248756, 0xBA4CB42C, 0xBA4CB128)

Can you tell me what these error codes mean? I'm trying to setup Windows XP
SP3 .. please let me know what system info you need and I'm happy to provide
it.

Thanks for your help.

The above refer to a dirty bit on your RAM or one of your RAM sticks, try to
test your RAM as instructed below and then run disk clean up on your system.
Double click "My Computer" Icon on your desktop, then right click your
Primary partition or main Drive which (C:\), select properties.
On the system properties click on Tools Tab and click Check Disk button.
A pop-up window will come up check both check boxes and click [OK] then Yes
to confirm that you want to run Check Disk on Start Up and Reboot your
machine.

This always refer to a bad Hardware/driver installed.
Try the Last good known Configuration to log into the system, then open
Device manager and see if there is any malfunctioining Devices or conflict in
IRQ, also look in the Event Viewer for error message and post them back in
your next post.
Read this articles and see, but how did you get rid of the Contra?.

Open a run command and type in these commands to see if there is a conflict
in /among drivers :
pstat.exe click [OK]
dmpchck.exe click [OK]
What you get from running this commands?.

Thank you so much - I really appreciate the info. MemTest shows no errors ..
however, I am wondering at the information it is showing. I have 2 Kingston
HyperX PC2-6400 DDR2 1 Gb DIMMS installed in a BioStar GF8200 M2+
motherboard. MemTest shows that it is testing 128K to 1792M, but I have 2 Gb
installed .. should I expect that MemTest should test through 2048M? Also,
it shows the the speed of the DIMM at 400MHz and these DIMM should have a
speed of 800Mhz. Is this a normal display or something that should trigger
questions.

You should know that I have a new system and am trying to ghost my old hard
drive onto a new drive on the new computer. After the Ghost completed, I did
an XP Repair Install, to get the correct drivers for my new system installed
- then booted up and the errors I've reported have occured consistently
trying to get into XP. Therefore, I cannot get into XP at all, either
normally (or through Last Know Good Configuration) or through Safe Mode, as
XP still needs to re-activate XP on this new machine. So I can't do a lot of
the driver checks you mentioned. I have done several disk checks from a
bootable CD and it does not register any errors. I also can't look at the
event viewer.

What do you mean by "how did you get rid of the Contra?"

Thank you again for your help.

Hi John,
Sorry for the Contra Stuff, it was from an old thread we been
troubleshooting and it ziped in the middle with yours ;-)
So you are trying to Ghost an Old Drive to a new Machine, and did the
Ghosting process was successful or did you have errors?
I don't think which you trying to achieve is possible on an Old HDD was on a
different machine with diffrent driver on another new machine with differemt
hardware and drivers.
You can only do cloning for the same specs machine.
HTH,
nass

Ghost worked fine and I verified the new drive data was identical to the old
drive. I've had a few friends who have done the same procedure with success
... I think the key was to do an XP repair installation after the clone, so
that XP setup could gather new drivers for the new hardware. So, I think
it's possible .. in theory. I was hoping those error codes would lead me to
a specific driver/hardware component that was off, rather than a generic
hardware/driver error. From your original response, that's what I'm guessing
this is.

Any other thoughts? Thanks again.

Hi John,
Without the Complete error message like Stop 0x00000050 in Win32k.sys I
really can't guess which can be causing this.
If you can capture the complete error, that will be helpful in knowing the
culprit driver causing the error.
HTH,
nass

Sure, I understand. Do you have any suggestions for tools I can use dig into
the error? Is there a log that the blue screen writes to, or that XP dumps
on boot? Or, is there an environment that I can load first from CD, that
then loads up XP and can capture the error in detail?

When the Computer Boot up Tap F8 to get the Boot up Options and select
Disable Automatic Restart on Failure and then Reboot the machine and Note
down the Error message wil be printed on the screen.

Unfortunately, the set of errors I originally posted is all the information
it displays:


*** STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xBA248756, 0xBA4CB42C, 0xBA4CB128)

HOWEVER, I did remove one of my memory sticks and restarted .. and got
different error codes:


*** STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xF763C756, 0xF78BF42C, 0xF78BF128)

So, maybe you were right originally in that it's a memory issue. I notice
some weird similarities in how the error codes are constructed with all the
memory in, versus how they are constructed with just 1 stick in.

I'm wondering if this has to do with the BIOS update I did, as soon as I got
the computer up and running. As soon as the BIOS updated finished, it
flashed a message that it was lowering the speed of the DIMMs, but I didn't
get the message as it flashed too quick. Any other thoughts?

Hi Dear....

I saw your post and would like to share some of essential information related to 0x0000007e stop error with you.

The 0x0000007e stop error generally occurs when a System Preparation (Sysprep) image is created on a computer that uses an Intel processor and is then deployed to a computer that does not use an Intel processor.

You can fix this error by following various steps and for that you can visit site as:

Thankyou
