Hi all

Recently I've been having many problems with blue screens, and also my pc failing to boot altogether. The latter issue I've managed to solve (more or less, and fingers very much crossed!) by uninstalling a programme called Rapport (see one of the entries below). Today, however, I got another blue screen :unsure:, and I was wondering whether anyone here might know how maybe I could prevent this from happening in future. Details of the last ten blue screens are given below (running Vista Home Premium SP2). I've attached them as well, with easier to read columns Attached File  BlueScreenView.txt   4.67KB   187 downloads.

Some of the blue screens (including today's) seem to be related to a file called ntkrnlpa.exe. This has been discussed elsewhere, although mainly for Windows 7. Anyway, it seems to my extremely untrained eye that this file is not the only problem...

Hi nimchimpsky82 :welcome:


BSOD problems can be hard to diagnose/fix and a lengthy process, sometimes if there is a hardware problem only installing a fresh windows or doing a factory restore can confirm the diagnostic.

Let's start by checking some things...

First I would like you to uninstall your current Antivirus software and install Microsoft Security Essentials, I want to make sure the problem isn't generated by your actual AV.

» Run a disk check
  • open the Command Prompt as Administrator (Tutorial)
  • type the command:
    chkdsk /r /x C:
    Note: When it ask if you want to checked the volume next time the system restarts answer Yes
  • restart the computer

Next,
  • download ListChkdskResult
  • execute the file and accept all the windows prompts to authorize the program to run
  • Notepad will open with a report showing the chkdsk result
  • copy & paste the log to your reply


» Check Windows System files integrity
  • open the Command Prompt as Administrator (Tutorial)
  • type the following command and press Enter:
    sfc /scannow
    
    Note: This may take some time to finish.

    if it doesn't say "No integrity violations found" them do this:
  • In the command prompt window, type or Copy & Paste the following:
    findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log >%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt
  • Close the command prompt.
  • Attach to your post the sfcdetails.txt file that was just placed on your Desktop
  • You can safely delete the sfcdetails.txt file afterwards if you like

» Minitoolbox Log
Download MiniToolBox and save the file to the Desktop.
Close the browser and run the tool, check the following options:
  • List Winsock Entries
  • List last 10 Event Viewer log
  • List Installed Programs
  • List Devices (Only Problems)
  • List Users, Partitions and Memory size
  • List Minidump Files
  • List Restore Points
Click on Go.


Post the resulting log in your next reply.


» Farbar Service Scanner (FSS) log
And let's check some windows critical services...
Download Farbar Service Scanner
  • Run FSS
  • Check all the options
  • click Scan

Post the generated log in your reply.
