Computer falls into BSOD

<< < (2/3) > >>

Freedom Kira:
Nope, XML = Extensible Markup Language. You're probably thinking of XLS, which would be Excel. Can't say for sure if any MS Office programs can open XML files, but chances are at least one of them can.

XML can be opened with a number of tools, but personally I'm only familiar with Visual Web Developer for that. In the worst case you should be able to open it in Notepad.

kureshii:
XML files can be opened in a text editor. The DMP file is probably binary dump and not meant for user viewing; if it opens as garbled symbols in Notepad, ignore it.

In any case, as Lupin said, it seems to be a hardware rather than software problem, likely RAM-related.

kitamesume:
if you know that the BSOD isnt caused by hardware then try reinstalling windows, should solve the BSOD. if it does get solved by reinstalling then it might have been a virus or a bad driver fucking up your system.

ah and be sure your OS Drive isnt failing =P

Edit: did you, by any chance, overclock your ram?

Lupin:
0xC000000E (BCP2) means STATUS_NO_SUCH_DEVI CE

I'd check the following:
1. RAM integrity
2. Drive health
3. PSU - just a wild guess but maybe your PSU is barely supplying enough or the contact between your drives and the power connector aren't tight enough

Meomix:
Ugh the updates slowed down my computers boot speed to a crawl, stupid system restore points are failing yet again.

Edit: Phew even doe the system restores failed my computer seems to have returned back to it's normal boot speed, cleaning out the restore points permanently now.
