Hi!

I have the same problem as lp in his post "rbooting". My friend's computer
won;t finish the boot sequence. It would show up to the Win2000 banner,
but then go into blue screen with messages like "physical memory dump
complete" and "stop something". I can't really read the whole thing as the
screen goes out fast and the computer goes on rebooting again.

Any ideas on how to approach this? I have tried going into Safe Mode, but
the same thing happen again.

Help!

Thanks,

Harto Alvias

I don't know how much good this will do, but from a parallel install, run
regedt32.exe, then from the Local Machine Hive, choose Registry|Load Hive,
then navigate to the
%windir%\system32\config
directory on the other install, and find the system file, then Open, in the
Key Name box give it some temp name, then under tempname, navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Select
and look in the Reg_Dword value of "Current", this is the current
controlset, then navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet00x\Control\CrashControl
Where x = the value of "Current" (found above) and set the values as follows

"AutoReboot"=dword:00000000
"CrashDumpEnabled"=dword:00000001
"LogEvent"=dword:00000001
"Overwrite"=dword:00000001
Then navigate back up to "tempname" and choose Unload Hive, and boot your
original install, Autoreboot is now turned off so you should be able to read
the stop error.

If nothing else you can at least recover your data from the parallel install
prior to rebuilding the operating system.

Hey Dave,

Thanks for your reply. But can you explain it in more details? I am afraid I
am not much of a techie . What is a parallel install and how do I do it?

Thanks!
