1.Restart your computer.
2.Press F8 at the character-based menu that displays the operating system choices.
3.Select the Last Known Good Configuration option from the Windows Advanced Options menu. This option
is most effective when only one driver or service is added at a time.
To resolve an error caused by an incompatible device driver, system service, virus scanner, or backup tool
1.Check the System Log in Event Viewer for error messages that might identify the device or driver that
caused the error.
2.Try disabling memory caching of the BIOS.
3.Run the hardware diagnostics supplied by the system manufacturer, especially the memory scanner. For
details on these procedures, see the owner's manual for your computer.
4.Make sure the latest Service Pack is installed.
5.If your system has small computer system interface (SCSI) adapters, contact the adapter manufacturer to
obtain updated Windows drivers. Try disabling sync negotiation in the SCSI BIOS, checking the cabling and
the SCSI IDs of each device, and confirming proper termination.
6.For integrated device electronics (IDE) devices, define the onboard IDE port as Primary only. Also, check
each IDE device for the proper master/subordinate/stand-alone setting. Try removing all IDE devices except
for hard disks.
