I have serious problem, windows is not loading in normal mode but it loads without problem in safe mode.
Computer was checked by computer specialist (He said that everything is ok and he dont know why windows is not loading)
Hdd was formated and windows was installed about 15-20 times last month. Even after reinstall windows dont want to load normally.
Hardware checked:
VGA, HDD, CPU, RAM, wires, that thing which produces power to pc (I dont know how does it call in English) Bios and other motherboard stuff was rewritten new.
No problems found.

XP stops loading in this place

and after that you can wait for hours, until you push restart.

XP does not show any errors

Soft is new, so it should not be a windows problem, hardware is almost all checked too.

Any ideas where the problem could be?


Oh and I forgot
After first time it happened, it was a blue screen with message



A problem has been dected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

The problem seems to be caused by the following file: PartMgr.sys

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.
If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any Windows updates you might need.

If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.
If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.

Technical information:

*** STOP: 0x00000050 (0xF8A414AB,0x00000000,0xF8A414AB,0x00000000)

*** PartMgr.sys - Address F8A414AB base at F8A3F000, Datestamp 00000000

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA error often means bad RAM (computer, or video card RAM).
How was RAM, and video card tested?

I'm rather disappointed in that repair shop proceeding, because you don't change 3 computer parts at the same time to pinpoint the problem.
By doing so, you still have computer down, and you have no clue what's wrong with it.
For instance, if replacing RAM didn't help, they should put old RAM back, and try another video card....and so on.

Go Start>Run (Start Search in Vista), type in:
msconfig
Click OK (hit Enter in Vista).

Click on Startup tab.
Click Disable all

Click Services tab.
Put checkmark in Hide all Microsoft services
Click Disable all.

Click OK.
Restart computer in Normal Mode.

NOTE. If you use different firewall, than Windows firewall, turn Windows firewall on, just for this test, since your regular firewall won't be running.
If you use Windows firewall, you're fine.

I didnt get any errors, everything looks fine.
Maybe its motherboards problem?
but still I dont understand if everything is correct why does it work in safe mode and dont in normal mode?
What does not boot in safe mode that normal mode boots?
All drivers were reinstalled from old to new, so this shouldnt be the problem.

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA error, in most cases is caused by motherboard RAM, video card RAM, or L2 cache (CPU) issues.
It looks like first two are OK, which leaves CPU problem.
It's rather complicated issue, so before we go there, let's try couple more things....

1. Go Start>Run ("Start Search" in Vista), type in:
sfc /scannow
Click OK (hit Enter in Vista).
Have Windows CD/DVD handy.
If System File Checker (sfc) will find any errors, it may ask you for the CD/DVD.
If sfc won't find any errors in Windows XP, it'll simply quit, without any message.

2. Windows repair: http://www.geekstogo...ws-XP-t138.html
