Several Ntoskrnl BSOD crashes over the last week, but different stopcodes

Y

Yousuf Khan

I've experienced 3 different BSOD's in the last week. I've started using
the Microsoft Windbg debugger to trace through them. I'm also using a
3rd party utility called BlueScreenView in addition to Windbg for
analysis. Each crash has a different Stop code number, but so far they
all seem to have a common origin in the NTOSKRNL.EXE installed with
Windows XP SP3. Meanwhile, HAL.DLL is involved with 2 of the 3 crashes
so far.

The first BSOD occurred on Dec 29th, 2009 and the most recent occurred
last night, Jan 6th, 2010. There were some previous BSOD's even before
that, but I didn't have the save kernel dump feature turned on, so I
missed those early ones.

Question is should I roll back to an earlier version of NTOSKRNL, and if
so which patch was it installed with?

That is all fine and good but please post the exact error that is shown. NTOSKRNL
and hal issues can be caused by numerous problems and we cannot tell which one
unless you post the error messages as per verbatim

I thought I already did post all of the error messages? The bug check
codes are also the Stop codes. To summarize what was already posted
before, they were:

Bug Check String : PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Bug Check Code : 0x10000050

Bug Check String : BAD_POOL_HEADER
Bug Check Code : 0x00000019

Bug Check String : BAD_POOL_CALLER
Bug Check Code : 0x000000c2

What more are you looking for?

Here is a link and go check them yourself.
Suggest that you reformat with all those Stop Errors
Good Luck
