| 672258 | 2008-05-24 22:18:00 | Last week I defragged my D drive (not windows) and as far as I can remember it all went well. However now when I play music and stuff from it it will skip like billy-o, then blue screen. Playing games from C: is fine, no probs. So I've run a chkdsk via D: Properties/Tools and it picks up a number of errors (inserting record into ..., and some other ones), but each time I run it they same problems are there so its not fixing them, and sometimes it just hangs on stage 4, so I have to reboot. I thought maybe another defrag might sort it out, probly not, but anyway it hung on 20% for a long long time, so I needed to reboot that too, probably not a good thing. Any ideas for a course of action? Will I need to reformat? |

| 672259 | 2008-05-24 22:22:00 | What program did u use to defrag? If the windows one, do it in safe mode WHAT does the blue screen say?? Whats it show?? 0xxxx ?? Does it show the name of a driver / file? A folder or a file on D maybe corrupted |

| 672260 | 2008-06-03 07:20:00 | Hi Speeedy. I used the windows defrag. I have received a few more blue screens. The error reads: Machine_check_exception stop: 0x0000009C (0x00000004,0x805461Fo,0xB2000000,0x00070f0f) I have downloaded a windows memory test, and that passed ok. chkdsk still crashes on phase 4 on D:. |

| 672262 | 2008-06-03 09:27:00 | thanks for that, looks like a cpu problem. Have run Prime95 for an hour and it didn't pick up any errors, and before that I have taken out 1gig of ram and replaced my 8800GT with a 6600 to see if it was a power problem (seemed other people had suggested this). Still locks up on stage 4 of chkdsk tho (now my test). so I've been sitting here doing nothing for a while and the hard drive still seems to be working away, is that normal? I'm not running any programs other than firefox. |

| 672263 | 2008-06-03 11:46:00 | This may or may not provide some info - click start/run type in eventvwr Press Enter, look at the log files under both system & Application at the exact time(s) the PC blue screens look for a error message, double click it to expand and copy paste the complete message back here. While looking in the log files, look for one called "Disk" - (in red) are there any clusters of them. As the first line of the link speedy posted says - This behavior occurs because your computer processor detected and reported an unrecoverable hardware error to Windows XP some part of the hardware appears to be failing maybe. |

| 672265 | 2008-06-05 11:53:00 | I have six Errors (3 different ones x 2) under system and none under Application in event viewer for the latest crash. They are side by side errors. The errors are: Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC80.MFCLOC could not be found and Last Error was The referenced assembly is not installed on your system. Resolve Partial Assembly failed for Microsoft.VC80.MFCLOC. Reference error message: The referenced assembly is not installed on your system. Generate Activation Context failed for C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\x86_Microsoft.VC80.MFC_1fc8b3b9a 1e18e3b_8.0.50727.163_x-ww_39049d00\MFC80U.DLL. Reference error message: The operation completed successfully. after a bit of a google, seems I may need to install some MS Visual C++ 2005 Redist.? Does everyone have this? |

| 672266 | 2008-06-05 12:18:00 | ah, after running chkdsk and the pc crashing at phase 4 I checked the event viewer and sure enough there are several Disk errors (after the same side by side ones again). Error reads: The device, \Device\Harddisk0\D, has a bad block. googling that now... |

| 672267 | 2008-06-05 12:22:00 | Sounds like the hard drive has bad sectors. Doing the defrag may have moved data into the dodgy areas. I would be doing a backup ASAP as the drive might be about to fail. |
