Running a multi-boot system (W7 32bit, W7 64bit, and W XP 32bit SP3).

 

Trouble is now with Windows XP.

 

For some time now, noticed that the CPU load (and CPU fan increases in speed) seems to go up while playing some low load games, when previously this didn't happen. Likewise the CPU load increases while in Safe Mode!? Also seems to take longer to shut down computer via XP.

 

Speaking of Safe Mode, I'm unable to boot into Safe Mode by changing settings under "msconfig". After changing settings to boot into Safe Mode, the computer always boots into Normal Mode with the following message shown.

The only way I can boot into Safe Mode now is by pressing the F8 key when XP is starting.

 

Getting odd system restarts due to file errors (I think). Happened again last night while waiting for web page to finish loading and while playing small video to pass the time. Here is screenshot of BlueScreenView of the corresponding system dumps.

Have no problems when running either of the Windows 7 operating systems, which suggests a software issue.

 

Ran a FRST scan with the following results -

I have fairly recently run anti-malware programs in conjunction with RKill. They found a few minor infections which were quarantined.

Not seeing anything.  Process Explorer looks really good.  System Idle is way over 90% and Interrupts value is below 1.4% so it should be pretty quick.  Nothing odd running other than rimhill which appear to be legit.  

 

Speccy says your hard drives are clean and the temps are very low.  Can't really trust Speccy for temps these day tho plus it's only be on for a little while so let's get a second opinion:

 

 
Download, save and Install it  then run it
 
What is the highest temp you see?  Leave it on for a while and see if it goes up.  Try running a scan or watch a video and see if it goes up a lot.
 
It will tell you your temps in real time in the systray when minimized tho the default is to show the hard drive temp .  You can change it:  Hit Configure then click on the highest temp and check Show in tray
 
Since you don't have problems with your other OS we can rule out RAM.  It would not hurt to let it do a disk check and see if something is messed up in the file system:
 
1. Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the hard disk that you want to check. C:
2. Click Properties, and then click Tools.
3. Under Error-checking, click Check Now. A dialog box that shows the Check disk options is displayed,
4. Check both boxes and then click Start.
You will receive the following message:
The disk check could not be performed because the disk check utility needs exclusive access to some Windows files on the disk. These files can be accessed by restarting Windows. Do you want to schedule the disk check to occur the next time you restart the computer?
Click Yes to schedule the disk check, but don't restart yet.
 
Start, Run, eventvwr.msc, OK to bring up the Event Viewer.  Right click on System and Clear All Events, No (we don't want to save the old log), OK. Repeat for Application. 
 
Reboot. 
 
The disk check will run and will probably take an hour or more to finish.
 
This next step often doesn't work on XP but give it a shot:
 
Start, Run, sfc /scannow, OK
 
SPACE after sfc. This will check your critical system files. If it asks for a CD and you don't have one or it doesn't like your CD just tell it to SKIP.
If you get too many requests for the disk  you can just Ctrl + c to kill it.
 
Start, Run, sigverif, OK
 
Press Start. This will check your drivers. If you just get a few when it finishes tell me what they are. If you get a lot just look for those with newish dates (since about the time the problem started.)
 
1. Please download the Event Viewer Tool by Vino Rosso
and save it to your Desktop:
2. Double-click VEW.exe
3. Under 'Select log to query', select:
 
* System
4. Under 'Select type to list', select:
* Error
* Warning
 
 
Then use the 'Number of events' as follows:
 
 
1. Click the radio button for 'Number of events'
Type 20 in the 1 to 20 box
Then click the Run button.
Notepad will open with the output log.
 
 
Please post the Output log in your next reply then repeat but select Application. (Each time you run VEW it overwrites the log so copy the first one to a Reply or rename it before running it a second time.)
 
 
IF you haven't run a defrag recently you should do so:
 
Start, Run, defrag C: /f

First. The removal of "malware" previously may have improved matters, in that the CPU fan doesn't speed up when in Safe Mode. Also shutdowns are a bit quicker now.

 

The highest HDD temperature according to SpeedFan, so far, is 23° C, while browsing the internet and playing a video at the same time.

 

Ran CHKDSK and SFC. Both seem to run OK with no errors reported.

 

Regarding drivers, the only one which was "modified" anywhere near when the problems started (according to system dumps; refer to screenshot of system dump in first post) is the file pcouffin.sys which was "modified" on 10/24/2016.

I have now disabled several devices under Device Manager, see screenshot below -

 

Device_Manager.png

 

 

Note that the "Video Controller" has been disabled. This device relates to the integrated graphics I believe, which has no drivers installed (I think). But I suspect that this might be the cause of conflict with the standalone video card with its own drivers, which in turn may have caused the system crashes/restarts(?)

 

The question still remains, why can't the system boot into Safe Mode after selecting Safe Mode via "msconfig" and rebooting?

 

Screenshot of setting -

 

Safe Mode.png

 

 

 

EDIT: Just now rebooted, and once again I've lost the AMD video card drivers for the standalone video card (HD7700)!!??

 

Error message -

 

AMD Driver.png

 

 

And in Device Manager -

 

Video Driver Missing!.png

 

Note that the Display Adapter now has a yellow exclamation mark!

 

What is going on here? Why are the video drivers being lost, so frequently!?

 

Seems I'll have to reinstall the video drivers again!

As far as MSCONFIG & Safe Mode go I expect that MSCONFIG modifies boot.ini so if the permissions on C:\boot.ini have gotten screwed up it wouldn't be able to change it.  Since you have XP Pro you can use

bootcfg /query

in a command prompt to see what is in boot.ini

notepad \boot.ini

might also work.

 

I don't have an XP handy right now but you can probably see the file if you

Open the Control Panel menu and click Folder Options.
After the new window appears select the View tab.
Put a checkmark in the checkbox labeled Display the contents of system folders.
Under the Hidden files and folders section select the radio button labeled Show hidden files and folders.
Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide file extensions for known file types.
Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files.
Press the Apply button and then the OK button 
 
Now right click on Start button and select Explorer then find C:\ and look in the right pane.  Right click on boot.ini and select Properties then Security.  See who has Full Control.
 
You can also let FRST show you:
 

 

 

Put the next line in the FRST search box 

ListPermissions: c:\boot.ini

Hit Fix.  It should tell you what permissions boot.ini has.

 

 

 
Alternatively you can get: Grant Perms
Please download GrantPerms.zip 
and save it to your desktop.
Unzip the file and  run GrantPerms.exe by right clicking and Run As Admin
Copy and paste the following in the edit box:
 
 
C:\boot.ini
 
 
 
 
Click List Permissions and post the result (Perms.txt) that pops up. A copy of Perms.txt will be saved in the same directory the tool is run. 
 
You can then:
 
Click Unlock. When it is done click "OK".
 
Looking at your device manager - I do not see a network adapter.  Is there one?
 
Some PCs require you to go into the BIOS to turn off the builtin Video.  You might look and see if yours has that option.
 
Your PC is XP Pro so it expects to be part of a corporate network.  Several services such as
 
Network Access Protection Agent 
 
NetLogon
 
should be turned off so as not to cause errors:
 
Start, Run, services.msc, OK to open the Services window.  Find each, right click and select properties then change the Startup Type to Disabled.  OK.
 
You can probably also disable
Remote Access Connection Manager while you are at it.  Not something most people need.
 
You can also turn off NetBT which no one uses these days:
 
 
This is an odd error:
 
Log: 'System' Date/Time: 30/07/2017 10:44:09 a.m.
Type: error Category: 0
Event: 10005 Source: DCOM

1058 means it thinks it is in Safe Mode.

Via Grant Permissions, the scan of boot.ini was -

There is no network adapter. I only have a dial-up modem (and an audio card, as well as the video card).
 
I checked for an option to disable the integrated graphics within BIOS, but haven't found it (yet). The nearest setting in BIOS is to just select the source of the primary video source from either the PCIe slot, or from integrated graphics. Setting is currently on PCIe slot (as it should be).
 
Disabled several services as mentioned, but Remote Access Connection Manager had already started and couldn't be stopped, although Startup Type was set to disabled for it.
 
Disabled "Netbios over Tcpip". I noticed that there was a yellow exclamation mark next to "Parport", if that means anything?

"Parport" is the old parallel port that used to be used for printers.  You can disable it.

 

In MSCONFIG you have Network checked.  Did you try unchecking it?

 

I'm surprised your modem works.  Usually the PCI Simple Communication Controller is the modem.

 

Going to bed now.

OK.

 

After reboot, I now no longer have dial-up connection on my XP system. The modem itself seems to be OK, but there is no "network" connection; I can't dial out. I'll try to restore the previous settings and hope to get the dial-up connection back. I'm typing this on my W7 32 system, where my dial-up connection still works.

 

EDIT: Typing this via my XP system again! Got my dial up connection back after undoing recent changes to Services (Remote Access Connection Manager; Net Logon; Network Access Protection Agent), and also re-enabling NetBIOS over TCPIP. By experimenting I could find out which of these is not really required for dial up connection, but not just now.

Probably Remote Access Connection Manager the others shouldn't be a problem.

OK.

 

So far the video drivers have not "disappeared". Hope it stays that way.

 

BTW, after fairly extensive searching in BIOS, there isn't an option to disable integrated graphics, and there is no other version of BIOS available either.

 

 

Safe Mode booting via "msconfig" is still not working.

 

Running msconfig, and selecting Boot.ini tab, notice that the SafeBoot box is already checked! Set SafeBoot to "Minimal", saved and restarted computer, but again system boots back to Normal Mode with the message box again appearing -

 

XP_boot.png

 

And General tab via "msconfig" shows -

Boot.ini tab -

What does it say after /fastdetect?  (On the last picture (boot.ini) you have to scroll to the right to see the rest of the line.

 

Does it switch from Normal Startup to Selective when you check the Safe Mode box?

Added screenshot of Boot.ini showing extended details -

 

Safe Boot Extended.png

 

 

And yes, the boot mode changes from Normal Startup to Selective Startup as soon as I make any changes to the Boot.ini settings.

 

Currently the boot mode is set at Normal Startup, but note that SafeBoot is checked automatically with Network option.

Very strange that the /safeboot:network is there twice.  Shouldn't be there at all for normal boot and just one should be added for safemode mode.

 

You should be able to edit boot.ini in notepad:

 

Start, Run, notepad \boot.ini, OK

 

One guy suggested you can add additional boot options then choose the one you want when it boots:

 

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Safemode" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn /bootsafe:minimal

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Safemode Network" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn /bootsafe:network

I also thought it odd that there were two entries for the "Network" option in Boot.ini.

 

After disabling Read Only status, the Boot.ini file was edited, so it now reads -

 

 

[boot loader]

timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
 
 
Boot.ini modified file saved and Read Only status re-enabled.
 
On running msconfig, the Safe Boot option is now unchecked (see screenshot) -
 
Edited Boot.ini.png
 
 
I'm presuming that the "malware" removed earlier on may have had something to do with the odd settings in the Boot.ini file, as CHKDSK and SFC didn't find any errors otherwise.
 
Is there anything else that needs to be done to ensure as far as possible there is/are no (other) malware present, or that there is no issues with any legitimate (system) files?
 
I will probably run further anti-malware/anti-virus programs in a while anyway, but are there any specific other (system/file) programs that could be run also that might help in detecting any issues with files?
