chkdsk stop 0X00000071

[Guest]

I using windows XP Pro SP2, one running Pro and the other running Home. All
appeared to be well until I requested chkdsk to run on next re-boot. Both
computers (I was doing both simultaniously) came up with the same blue screen
error:

SESSION5_INITIALIZATION_FAILED
....

stop: 0X00000071 (0X00000000,0X00000000,0X00000000)

This even happens when I start in Safe mode. I looked up MS knowledgebase
and found article 815021 which deals with all sorts of problems but near the
end says that this problem was fixed in XP with Service Pack 2. As that is
what was just installed, I am at a loss.

Any ideas?

I, too, get this error when I attempt to do a boot-time chkdisk on my C:
drive in Windows XP. The system starts booting, the disk check happens, and
when it finishes, the system reboots. But as it starts booting, I briefly
see the chkdisk screen appear, then bam! STOP 0x00000071. The only way I
can get around it is to reboot and select "Last known good configuration"
after pressing F8 (or when Windows complains that it did not finish loading
on the last startup).

FWIW it's behaved this way since at least SP2 was applied. I don't recall
this happening prior to that.

Hi...



Boot with XP CD or 6 floppy boot disk set.

Press R to load the Recovery Console.

Type a:ntdll.dll c:\winnt\system32\ntdll.dll

See if that helps
