Start up BSOD - sym_u3.sys

G

George Hester

On Tuesday last I noticed when I shut down the machine which has Windows XP
SP2 on it, I clicked Shutdown and it turned immediately off. No shutdown
jingle nothing just shut down. I didn't have enough time to turn it back on
and so left it for a day. When I returned to it I had at startup the Blue
Screen of Death. It doesn't appear long enough for me to figure out what it
says. But working on this at some point I got that the machine could not be
started sym_u3.sys is corrupted. I found this on the web:

I have a RAID card and a SCSI card in the system and an IDE is the boot
disk. The SCSI card needed no drivers other than what came with Windows XP.
The RAID card did require drivers.

This file sym_u3.sys is in drivers.cab. Anyone else seen this and had any
success fixing it? Thanks.
