Ndis.sys causes Blue Screen of Deathq

NDIS is related to networking.  Try booting the system in safe mode without networking support.  Then run SFC /SCANNOW at a command line.  Have your Windows CD handy.

If you still have problems after that, post the error message (have you updated your network drivers lately?)  At LEAST the first line of it, generally the rest is useless to all but those who work for microsoft.

Heres the problem I dont have the XP Cd I have a company copy that has multiple licenses for XP Pro. Also I dont know how to start safe mode without networkign only know how to do safe mode and safe mode with command prompt and safemode with networking. Is there anything that I can do with BartPE?

"safe mode" (nothing else) is safe mode without networking.

Oh well I have tried that and gotten the same error

Then boot to something - Recovery console if you can, BARTPE, something. Look in c:\windows\system32\drivers for the ndis.sys file - rename it - ndis.bad - something.  get it out of there.  This won't always fix things - and I can all but promise you networking will be completely broken, but there's an excellent chance you'll be able to boot the system.

(And post that Error Message!)

Okay I will post the error message but where can I get a ndis.sys good file. Also I was thinking of just deleting it but I was scared to so I was waiting for you response and you are telling me to rename it okay after I do that what should I do. Also should I post the error message first?

Post the error message first - if I'm right and you boot successfully after you rename it you MIGHT not be able to get the error again.  

(ALWAYS RENAME - NEVER DELETE!)

Once you boot, do a search on your system (and check manually c:\Windows\system32\dllcache) for a copy of the file.  If you find one, put it in c:\windows\system32\drivers and reboot - if you still have problems, it could be a driver issue with your network card.

Well firstly I did just install a wireless g card from d-linbk and had been getting problems telling me the following.
A. there is a hi-speed usb device plugged into a non high speed hub. It showed a six port hub yet my laptop only has 2 and no hispeed devices connected.
b. new hardware- ethernet adapter (it was working fine though)
c. new hardware pci serial port (my pc doesnt have a serial port)
d. new hardware-my wireless card needs to be installed but it was already installed
and yes I did a reboot and still had the same problems
And now the moment you have all been waiting for, the error message! (Note the zero counts may be off but I cant count them very well becuase I for some reaosn have a problem counting repetivie numbers)
Stopo 0X000000008EC (0XC0000005 0X EC759260, 0X00000000
NDIS.sys F84 DF6B3  BASE F84 DA00 Datestamp 3d6de4c3

Hope this helps also If I dont find the file in the cache what else can I do? Could I use the file from a windows xp home pc?

Anyone else have any ideas on what to do. This is extremely urgent.

Most likely, you could use the file from XP Home.  But typically, there are several patches and the DLLCache that should have it - I checked my system and have 4 copies.

Whenever windows crashes with blue screen, a system event 1001 record and a minitdump is created. Record 1011 has the bugcheck code and the bugcheck parameters which are very useful to diagnostic your problem.

Control Panel -> System Adminstrative Tools -> Event Viewer -> System -> Record 1001 (ie sysddump). Copy the content of the record 1001 log into clipboard. Paste them back here.

There is an update for xp released end of 2003, you could try this, this file does contain ndis.sys amongst others

Windows XP 32-Bit Editions
The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:
Download the WindowsXP-KB826942-x86-enu.exe package now. Release Date: October 31, 2003

Of course you will probably need to get into the machine first.

Can't you just slave yuor drive to get information off?  Or do you only have one machine?

Does your PC has adequate power unit? Try the following website and it helps you to calculate the power consumption of your PC. Change a more powerful may resolve your problem.

Power Supply Voltage Calculator http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/


I guess the correct bucheck code is as follows:
Bugcheck code 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x00000000, EC759260, 0X00000000)
                                                                ^^^^^^ <----- The address where exception occurs ??
where Bug Check 0x8E: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED and it means windows try to execute an instruction as address 0 which prohibit windows low memory protection. As windows does not allow read and write to first 64K and it is so called the low memory protection.

I don't know why the exception address is at low memory zero. Something is really weired and I think it is related to hardware such as faulty power supply unit or RAM.

I have a laptop otherwise I would slave. It does have an adequate power unit as it is a centrino and requires very little power. Yeah I have been thinking I have faulty RAM. Is there a type I should get for a laptop. I really need it asap otherwise I would send it in. BTW I am sick today but when I get a chance I will certainly see if the fix works. Also can I check out the cache file using knoppix?

Sure... Knoppix should be able to read NTFS.  I believe you can even set the disk to read/write and rearrange things that way.

Could it be RAM?  Sure.  But RAM doesn't generally go bad from what I've seen.  I believe it's more likely to be a corrupt driver or related.

Okay thanks LEEW when I get a chance I will try waht you have suggested.

Try memtest to scan your ram.       http://www.memtest86.com

Okay I was able to rename the file using BartPE but now I need to figure out how to get a checked ndis.sys onto that pc since hte cd rom drive is used by the bartpe cd and the knoppix cd when I use knoppix. I checked the dllcache and the drivercache and didnt find the ndis.sys. Anyways what should I do next? I havent checked to see if it starts up yet but I dont have any use for it unless I can get it connected to a network since I cant even print the stuff out without the network. Should I try to get the file from another computer on my home network by networking knoppix? I dont know how to connect using knoppix though. What should I do next?

NDIS is a small file.  ~165K and will fit on a floppy.  if you have a USB storage device - one of those portable memory keys - I'd use that to transfer the file from one system to another.  (I'm really surprised you don't have a copy of that file somewhere else on your system).

You could network knoppix, but it gets a little hairy - although one solution would be to put the NDIS.SYS file using the other computer onto some web storage place (Yahoo Breifcase - if you have or setup a yahoo account) - and then boot knoppix and download the file to the hard drive.

Download a copy of XP SP2 and reapply that - or SP1 if that's what you're running.  Reinstalling the Service Pack SHOULD recover that.

You should be able to boot now - no networking, but you should be able to boot. Once booted, you can rename the NDIS file back into place or rename/move another one into place.

Okay I will try that and I would just upload the file to my personal webspace 1.5gigs I got so the file will fit in any tiny place. I dont have any usb storage device though. I dont have a floppy in the laptop either. I have a usb floppy drive. Could I get that to work with knoppix?

I would think so - BUT, I'm not positive - never tried.

Just making sure though I should try to use the ndis.sys from a working xp home to replace the file I have named ndis.bad and name the new fiel ndis.sys in the system32/drivers directory correct?

I would copy the NDIS.SYS file to your computer, but put it someplace else - c:\ or c:\Windows or someplace OTHER than C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS - reason being, what if the "bad" file is fine.  The real problem is a corrupted Network driver?  Confirm you can boot to windows.  THEN, within Windows, move the NDIS.SYS file to the DRIVERS folder.  Then reboot.  If you have the same problem, then it's more than likely not the NDIS driver but EITHER bad hardware (RAM) or a bad Network driver.

What do I do if it is one of those?

next step - lets see if this works.

Okay so it boots now without any ndis.sys driver. What do I do next should I use the ndis.sys I found on the BartPE disk?

Quick question - what Network card do you have in this?  You might want to try to download the drivers for it.  COULD be corrupted network driver (my favorite really).  


I'd copy the one on bart pe if that's all you have - but for fun, go to a command prompt and from the C: drive type:

dir /s ndis.sys

Does anything else come up?  If so, list their locations here.

If not, then use Bart PE's.  BUT be warned, I don't have a clue which one that is and it could cause another BSOD.  I will say, I REALLY doubt its memory at this point.

Oh well I am pretty sure the one from BartPE is taken from the windows xp home edition I made the disk from becuase BartPE requires Windows files to create a disk and the download is about 5mb or so and then the cd is about 180mb because it takes files so I am pretty sure it is from the XP Home installation. Anyways the network card is the one that came with the laptop built in. I think it might be part of hte mobo or something. Anyways I havent been able to find any driver updates on the Sony website so I doubt there are any for it. Where else should I look if I can find out what type it is. Also how do I find out what type it is?

Okay things have gotten worse. My taskbar doesnt respond it only responds to one click then it goes so I cant do anything with the start menu and I have to run commands through taskmanager I have tried restataring explorer and still have the same problem

funny thing - I think I can tell you why that it - I just had a problem with that myself and it's almost certainly related to not having networking.

Look in task manager - do you see a process (under the processes tab) that reads "userinit.exe"?  If so, i can all but guarentee it's trying to sync offline files but can't.  Can't fix this without the network working - but you can do most things through the command prompt.

Okay I will look anyways should I try to use that bartpe file?

I dont see that running, but here is what I do see running.
taskmgr.exe
explorer.exe
crfmon.exe
ati2evxx.exe (running twice)
svchost.exe (running 3 times)
wanmpsvc.exe
NSIUM.exe
MDM.exe
Runservice.exe
inetinfo.exe
gearsec.exe
crypserv.exe
ccevtmgr.exe
acsd.exe
msdtc.exe
spoolsv.exe
lsass.exe
services.exe
winlogon.exe
crss.exe
snss.exe
SYSTEM
SYSTEM IDLE PROCESS
Hope this helps this is what I have running anyways I really would like to get my pc working again tonight.

Do the DIR thing - IF you don't find it, then use the BART PE file.  But look for one with DIR - then use the most recent one that doesn't match the date/file size of the bad one.  If they all do, then use any one of the others.

What do I do about the explorer thing though?

If you can work around it now, do so, again we'll tackle that later - It may very well be related to a lack of networking at the moment.

Okay it works now but I still get hte BSOD with the new file. What should I do now. BTW leew if you would like me to open up another question so you can get double poitns for this long question I will or I will try to get you points some other way since you are being very helpful. Anyways what do I do now?

BTW i used the dos command 'fc' and there were no file differences between the two

I hate sony.  Well, you know how to get Windows Running again, so do that.

Can you post the exact model of Sony and I'll try to locate network drivers for you.

Once you get back into windows, do a:

DIR %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS > C:\DRIVER-LIST.TXT

Then post that file - it will list all the drivers you have there and I can try to identify the network card driver.  Then we can take THAT out instead of NDIS and see if that fixes things (pretty sure it will) - of course you won't have networking.

Do you have a PCMCIA network card anywhere - can you get one (if you're on the west coast I imagine staples and other such stores would be open - if this is urgent enough to try that).  We can then confirm it's a network driver issue with a different NIC being used.  (Wireless even?)

Don't worry about the points.  But I appreciate the sentiment.

Yeah I have a wireless card but I cant add a new connection without ndis.sys. Anyways I will do that and I dont have a pcmia network card lying around though I wish I did. I only have a wireless card. The model is a SONY PCG-V505-DX

Sometimes I'm forgetful... like this past 24 hours - SYSTEM RESTORE - Try using System restore to put your system back to a functional state.  Go back a couple days prior to the problem.  Then see what happens.

If it fails, that's ok - you've got the wireless.  Post the driver list I requested and we'll yank that driver out then restore ndis.  I'm 2/3 sure it's the NIC and not NDIS (about 1/4 thinking it might be a corrupt hardware registry, but I doubt it).   Then you can install the wireless and I SUSPECT, you'll be ok.  I'm probably going to have to go soon - still at work and REALLY want to go home.  I'll be back on PROBABLY around 9:30 Pacific time.  But I don't know how much longer I can keep this up tonight.

okay that is fine I will post that driver list for you.

I don think it is a hardware problem since I was able to connect to the internet under Knoppix. I am guessing it is a problem with Windows and is therefore fixable without any other problems. I have someone over right now but at 9pm pst I will get the stuff and post that list for you.

I dont see a c: drivers list

You ran this?
DIR %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS > C:\DRIVER-LIST.TXT

the run
NOTEPAD C:\DRIVER-LIST.TXT

okay I Will run that I thought it was already there. MY mistake. LEt me finish up what I am doing in linux and then I will do th stuff in windows.

I did that and it came up wit hthe driver list for drive f which is my bartpe disk what do I do to get it for c:/

For c:, try:

DIR C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS > C:\DRIVER-LIST.TXT

If that fails, try;

DIR C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS > C:\DRIVER-LIST.TXT

It would be C:\WINDOWS I will do that when I get a chance today thanks for the help

Okay I got it working my friend helped me. I have a problem with one of my drivers as you thought might be one of the problems. Anyways we think it is the wireless driver so I turned it off. Thanks for your help. I will get you the drivers list so you can see if there are any new drivers available for the wireless as I would like to have them. Here is the list.

So is there a way to get wireless workign again?

Post the make/model of the wireless card.  I'd use OLDER drivers and not the new ones.  Or get a different wireless card.

D-Link DWL G630 Thansk a million

I just bought this wireless card. I will certainly not buy a new one so if oyu can I would love it if you know where to get older wireless drivers.

You can download the driver from the dlink web site or try the one with the CD that shipped with the card.  (they should be the same).  If the problem occurs again, you know how to fix it.. but then I'd be contacting Dlink.

Okay thanks a ton for your help.

Although the case is closed, I searched google and find a hit failing at nids.sys and the time stamp of the module is the same.
