Hi,
I am using Windows Xp sp3 on a Toshiba laptop.
Since a few days back i repeatedly get blue screens which says corrupt driver.I tried to verify my drivers using the verifier.exe in system32 folder but as soon as the computer reboots,I get blue screen again.I have uploaded my 4 recent minidumps here.

Please help me as I do not want to format my computer.
While I am doing regular stuff like browsing etc the error that appears is:

0x000000C5(0x0A210035,0x00000002,0x00000000,0x8055159A)

and

0x000000C5(0xFFFFFFFF,0x00000002,0x00000000,0x8055159A)

When i try to use verifier.exe from system32 folder,it tells me to reboot the computer and i get this error

0x000000C4(0x0000003B,0x00000002,0xF0183EEC,0x00000000)

Reboot into Safe Mode then do the following

Lets see what you have in your startup

Please click on
Start and then to Run
Type in msconfig and press Enter
Now click on Startups
Then uncheck everything and restart.
If system boots correctly and is running smoothly and faster then we have a startup problem
Try going back into msconfig and check one item and reboot
Keep doing that till you have found the problem or all are finally checked.
Post back with the results

Hi rshaffer61,thanks for replying.I have done that and the problem still persists.I have tried windows check disk,defragging,registry cleaning(using CCleaner).I personally think that its a driver issue as the same error comes on the blue screen and when i try to verify the drivers using verifier.exe of system 32 folder.Is there any way I can find out the corrupted driver?

If you did the msconfig and the issue still happens then the issue is not a driver. That is what the msconfig is checking for.
Have you looked in Device Manager to see if anything is marked with a yellow exclamation or red X?
Have you tried SFC
Did you recently upgrade a driver for software or hardware prior to this starting?
Do you have a Recovery CD for your laptop or do you have a Genuine Full Version Microsoft XP installation of the same type that is installed on your system? Home, Media Center or Pro
Since you do not state you have tried a SFC then let's try that first and see if it finds any problems with the System Files.


Go Start and then to Run ("Start Search" in Vista),
Type in: sfc /scannow
Click OK (Enter in Vista).
Have Windows CD/DVD handy.
If System File Checker (sfc) finds any errors, it may ask you for the CD/DVD.
If sfc does not find any errors in Windows XP, it will simply quit, without any message.
In Vista you will receive the following message: "Windows resource protection did not find any integrity violations".

For Vista users ONLY: Navigate to C:\Windows\Logs\CBS folder. You'll see CBS.log file.
Usually, it's pretty big file, so upload it to Flyupload, and post download link.


If you don't have Windows CD....
This applies mostly to Windows XP, since Vista rarely requires use of its DVD while running "sfc"
Note This method will not necessarily work as well, as when using Windows CD, because not always ALL system files are backed up on your hard drive. Also, backed up files may be corrupted as well.

Go Start and then Run
type in regedit and click OK


Navigate to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup

You will see various entries Values on the right hand side.

The one we want is called: SourcePath

It probably has an entry pointing to your CD-ROM drive, usually D and that is why it is asking for the XP CD.
All we need to do is change it to: C:
Now, double click the SourcePatch setting and a new box will pop up.
Change the drive letter from your CD drive to your root drive, usually C:
Close Registry Editor.

Now restart your computer and try sfc /scannow again!


Thanks to Broni for the instructions
