My old XP desktop started getting a BSOD just about the time I got a new
laptop. Which was good timing, but I've decided I need to figure out how
to resurrect the thing. I'm not having any luck tracking down the cause.
Symptoms: system powers up, goes through the Windows splash screen, then
BSOD's just before it would display the login page. BSOD says it is an
INTERNAL_POWER_ERROR, ***STOP: 000000A0 (0x00000101, 0x00000007,
0xBA517764, 0x00000000). (And naturally some of the later numbers change
each time.)
I can run the system in "safe mode with networking" but it's not usable
in that state.
Googling on INTERNAL_POWER_ERROR didn't get me any solutions.
I can't turn on minidumps because that requires the Alerter service, and
that won't run in Safe mode. Most of the other debugging techniques I
tried also wouldn't work in Safe mode.
I replaced the mobo battery -- no improvement.
I don't have a clean XP install CD so I can't do an in-place reinstall.
This is an eMachines T3512. See

Help???
