I have a Sony laptop Pentium 3 with 256K of RAM running Windows 2000
Professional. When the computer boots, I get a message that NTOSKRNL.EXE is
either corrupt or missing. If I keep rebooting, I eventually succeed but my
laptop TFT screen turns first white and than immediately black as soon as the
splash W2K screen disappears. If I have an external monitor attached to the
laptop, I can use the computer after the boot is completed even with the TFT
screen all black. If I attach the external monitor after the TFT screen
turned black, no picture appears on the external monitor and I have to reboot.
I upgraded Bios and video driver from the Sony site. I do not know if the
bios update was successful or not (presently the video bios version on the
laptop is U0IS2¬_51) but the video driver update failed to change the present
version of the video driver which is 5.12.1.2703. I have Intel 82815 Graphics
controller in the laptop and tried to install the most recent version of the
driver for the controller (downloaded from the Intel site) but the
installation failed due to a “severe errorâ€. Finally I played with the
various refresh rates and screen resolution settings on the external monitor
but there was no change on reboot.
I checked the contents of the minidump file created when the computer does
not boot properly with dumpchk. The first section of the crash dump analysis
is displayed below, the rest of the sections did not appear to have an error.
