NT Server kaput?! c000021a Fatal Stop 0x00000080

Asked by logike30 in Windows NT Operating System

Tags: 0x00000080, process, c000021a

At my workplace we have an old Dell Poweredge 2400 Server with Windows NT SP6 on it. It had come down with a seriously noisy fan condition so I attempted to fix it without replacing the fan. After taking the fan out and blowing the crud out of it I put it in and rebooted. It's important for you to know that I am not a professional with NT servers. I can make my way around but I am no where near an admin... WIth that said, the computer boots up, hits the backround color of the desktop but no Win NT Server logo and jumps directly to the blue screen of death.

The message is something like Stop: c000021a Fatal Error and says that the windows login process has terminated unexpectadly.
gives an address of 0x00000080 (0x00000000 , 0x00000000). Then is says "Beginning dump of physical memory to disk" and proceeds to dump the memory while counting to 99 and reboots. This loops around and around.

I have read other issues like this and one points out the possibility of repairing the installation. I tried to do that with the NT CD but it says it cannot find the Hard Drives. So I used the Dell utililty embedded in the system to check for errors. Everything passed fine and the hard drives went through a surface scan with no problems. I checked if they were seated in correctly and they were, lights were on on the front of each of the 2 drives.

I don't think that removing the fan and putting it back in would cause a problem like this. This system hasn't been rebooted in a long time. Could this have been a problem that occured a long time ago but only now shows up once I rebooted the machine?
