The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Bios virus?  XP pro logon failure (Blue Screen of death)

Asked by Sumdawgy in Microsoft Operating Systems, Windows XP Operating System, Microsoft Windows Operating Systems

Tags: screen, blue, xp, virus

Hi all,
Usually I read along and passively attend but I need SPECIFIC help!

Ie 7.0 crashed out took explorer with it.. ...no big deal ..I had system up up for at least 2wks straight ..then Dr watson crashed out too.. ok so I started a system restart from windows task manager....

All went well untill I was about to get my logon secreen... I  was treated to the blue screen of death..

After 3 such tries I went safe mode...using F8
All attempts to enter ANY safe mode earns me a automatic reboot as the computer attempts to come up.

needless to say I've become a bit worried...

Booting to my CD....
Hard boot....a second after CD begins to load...system restarts.
warm boot ...Cd fails to boot  (Usually locks up.. altho, twice it said it was unable to get ntloader to load.)

one time I tried to rush the CD boot thru and I triggered off an exception ....

Trap B3F50000 ================== EXCEPTION ============================

tr=0028  cr0=00100000  cr2=00300000  cr3=00100010
gdt  limit=03FF  base=00017000    idt limit=07FF  base=00017400

cs:eip=B333:73B10001  ss:esp=4548:000B0027  errcode=0000
flags=33B81360  NoCy Zr IntEnDown TrapEn
eax=0008F1B3  ebx=00060000  ecx=0010000  edx=00100000 ds=3373  es=0030
edi=1FB52B83   esi=00000895   ebp=FFFF0000  cr0=00100000 fs=13B1 gs=0002

Trying a bit more ...got the ntloader err again..the system restarted ignored the CDROM and came up to the "windos failed to load last time" screen this time I got to a blue screen that says that the video driver failed to initialize.  

restting the machine, it went to boot fromCDROM and went to a WHITE screen...
Instead of a trap message like the other time....
the left side of the screen was filled with trap codes.....
I'm only gonna list the first 6
TRAP 0000D7DC
TRAP 0000D8A6
TRAP 0000D802
TRAP 0000D8B4
TRAP 0000D833
TRAP 0000D966

It's at this time I suspect a bios virus?
Anyone have suggestions on how to get this machine up and running.....
My laptop is fine and dandy but It's only half of my life ... need the desktop for the other half :)

nvida geforce MX 4.0
Windows XP pro SP2
BTW I'm running logmein on that unit too.... so that will also affect the display...
