SP3 failed

[Mike Cawood, HND BIT]

Having updated to SP3, all I get is a blue screen with
STOP: 0x0000007E (0xc0000005,0xF77c0756,0xF79EB430,0xF79EB12C)
It tells me to boot to Safe mode but that doesn't work either.
SP3 seems to have trashed my computer.

Looks like I'll have to reinstall Windows XP SP2 from the recovery partition
and forget about SP3.

You needn't do that. Simply uninstall SP3.

CHeck out this post about this issue. It seems to be a very popular
issue. This seems to be caused is you have an AMD processor.

Yes an AMD processor Athlon 64.
Text copied from blog file above:-
"Looks like the one. After installing, you CAN still get into safe mode.
From there, if you open regedit and go to the following key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Intelppm\Start

and change the 'Start' value to 4, then reboot the system will work again.
Unless it's a different problem of course ."


I'll give the suggestion a try.
Mike.

How is he going to do that since his computer won't boot?

Ooops! You are correct. My brain went into dumb mode.

What error is being displayed when you try to boot into safe mode?

I got into Safe mode eventually & did a System Restore which made the
computer go back to SP2. I've done the registry fix & I'll try SP3 again
tomorrow.

So when you read the release notes for SP-3, what changes described
therein convinced you that you must have SP-3?

I have a HP d4495.se (swedish) with AMD 2X2200 processor & inst SP
this wednesday. Didn't work that well. It hang at blue screen with
this 0x0000007 message. After about 5-6 restarts it hanged at "HP:s
first page" where I can choose to goto setup in BIOS, Recovery etc.
Nothing helped. Then I pull out the electric cord from the machine &
leave it for 10 min. Then I could choose Recovery from recovery -
DVD:s. Directly after the machine was up & running I change this key
in the reg. I'm a bit crazy so I tried again with inst SP3. Voila! SP3
in & working perfectly so far. No hanging at login as before (it just
hanged after I could see the desktop & nothing else worked. Restart
only solution). But I have not fixed NortOn 2006 Internet security
uppdatet & running in full yet. Also isn't the wireless network card
in operation yet. Maybe some of them is the culprit for the old
hangings I had? We'll see about that...

Any way, thanks for the tip about the change for the key, it did work

Many thanks for all your help, the registry change in the link of sysk167
solved it all & SP3 is running nicely.
