backing up crashes

[rob]

Hi all,

for the past week I cannot back up my system without the system freezing
up. I have been using Disk Image 7 for several years with no problems
but now it halts the system after a minute or two. I've tried running
Norton Utililties, sfc /scannow, RegCleaner, and my antivirus with no
change and there are no other problems with the system.

I don't know if it is DI7 or Windows 2K but I get the following error
message on the dreaded blue screen:

Stop 0x000000B8 (0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
a wait operation, attach process, or yield was attempted from a DPC routine.
Beginning dump of physical memory

If anyone can tell me how to fix this it would be greatly appreciated.

hi and thanks for your reply...
I have not updated any drivers and, based on my startup, my memory is
OK; I also ran my register check, repair disk, and sfc /scannow with no
effect.

You might also try running
chkdsk /r

Startup tells you little, the other items do nothing relevent

thanks all - I tried all your suggestions plus re-installed sp4 and now
everything is working normally so far...
