stop 0xc2 message and accessible troubleshooting
Hello, I've got an xp machine, it's a dell-something running media center edition of xp. It's getting a BSOD stop error 0x000c2 which googling revealed was a kernel or memory driver issue. The machine will not boot normally and surprisingly not boot in safe mode. I'm going to start pulling memory chips, see if one of them is the cause, then clean out it's insides. If i have to go deeper in this are there any accessible troubleshooting environments, like a windows PE with accessibility such as sound enabled? Thanks. Dave.
Dave: There are some Linux based troubleshooting environments such as GRML, but nothing for Windows unfortunately. I tried once to get something like NVDA to run in Windows PE but it didn't work too well. In any case, in cases like yours where the machine won't boot in safe mode even, unless pulling memory or something like that works, your best bet is to reinstall anyway, as something is usually really hosed.

Hi Dave, I could be a mile wide of the mark here, but a couple of weeks ago I had a DELL which gave very similar symptoms. But I'd need to see the full BSOD message to be absolutely sure. The bottom line, after considerable Googling, was that I had to slipstrean XP SR3 onto the original XP release CD, and re-install Windows to the existing Windows folder. George. -----Original Message----- From: blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org [mailto:blind-sysadmins-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of David Mehler Sent: 28 December 2009 20:56 To: blind-sysadmins Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] stop 0xc2 message and accessible troubleshooting Hello, I've got an xp machine, it's a dell-something running media center edition of xp.

Hi, The machine in question i'm not sure if it has sp3 on it or not. This issue just came up, the user claims to have been doing several things at once, i was thinking corrupted registry until i read the stop error code and looked it up. He's got a ghost raid1 backup, to a second hard disk, which i'm not sure that's reliable. I need to back this machine up if removing the memory fails, recommendations? Why didn't NVDA work in WinPE? Thanks. Dave. On 12/28/09, Andrew Hodgson <andrew@hodgsonfamily.org> wrote:

Because NVDA basically relies on MSAA which does not exist in win PE, as that's pretty much a linux-based environment. Ryan, try memtest. On 12/28/09, David Mehler <dave.mehler@gmail.com> wrote:

Assuming you can get some sighted help, you might be able to use the Ghost restore disk to put it back to the backup. The problem/risk here is whatever happened to hose the primary drive managed to get over to the backup drive as well, in which case, as I said, best bet is to get what data you can off if possible, wipe the drives and start over. If you can get the service tag of the machine, you should be able to go to http://support.dell.com and download any drivers for that specific machine.

Jackie: I don't know if Windows PE has MSAA or not so can't comment there, but its actually not a Linux environment, modern Windows PE are extremely, and I do mean extremely, stripped down Windows Vista or Windows 7 immages. They use the same kernel as Vista or 7. Your main mode of interaction is a command prompt window, like server core actually, but there are some GUI apps you can run like Notepad.

Ryan, try memtest. On 12/28/09, David Mehler <dave.mehler@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi, The machine in question i'm not sure if it has sp3 on it or not. This issue just came up, the user claims to have been doing several things at once, i was thinking corrupted registry until i read the stop error code and looked it up. He's got a ghost raid1 backup, to a second hard disk, which i'm not sure that's reliable. I need to back this machine up if removing the memory fails, recommendations? Why didn't NVDA work in WinPE? Thanks. Dave.

Hi,
Other than what Ryan has said here which I agree with 100%, Has this just had SP3 installed on it?
Thanks. Andrew.

Hello, I've got an xp machine, it's a dell-something running media center edition of xp. It's getting a BSOD stop error 0x000c2 which googling revealed was a kernel or memory driver issue. The machine will not boot normally and surprisingly not boot in safe mode. I'm going to start pulling memory chips, see if one of them is the cause, then clean out it's insides. If i have to go deeper in this are there any accessible troubleshooting environments, like a windows PE with accessibility such as sound enabled? Thanks. Dave.
