BSOD - tried everything, keep getting stuck! Help!

[Voodooca]

Hi guys,

I registered here to try and get some help with a computer I have.

I bought a computer from a friend leaving the country and had it working fine (acer computer). The other day it will not start up at all... Power, but not post beeps or activity. After some trouble shooting I find out it's the mobo, and change it. In the mean time I put my drive in an alternate computer to see if that was the potential issue. I got a BSOD on that computer but didn't think any thing of it.

Now I cannot boot into windows (windows 7)
It will get to the start of the windows logo and crash... Then give me this error

0x0000007b (0x80786b58, 0xc0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

I have read pages about drivers and ahcii changes and I can't seem to get anything to work.

Tried windows repair - it says it cannot be fixed
Restored to earlier save points with no difference
Tried changing the ide mode to simple instead of advanced - still no boot
I tried to use a windows install cd to repair things, but i don't know what exact version is on this computer and the disk says that it doesn't have the right one to install... Now i don't know how to tell what specific build I have on that computer.

Am I missing something?
Anyone help?

Thanks in advance!!
Chad

Hey Richard,
Thanks for the BSOD posting information...
Unfortunately I cannot get the OS running, so most of the things that I can help from that - I cannot even get at.

As far as I know...
x64
Originally installed was VISTA (FROM ACER)
I dont know if this was upgraded to 7 or fresh - my guess is upgraded
Not a RETAIL version
Computer is about 2-3 years old from what I can tell
I dont know when the OS was upgraded/changed, but inside of that timeframe (2-3 years)

The new MOBO is an ASUS board, and everything fires up with it - just cant get the OS going!!

Thanks again!
Chad

Did you try http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/69585-safe-mode.html

 

[Voodooca]

Yep - same crash going in safe mode.
I think the last driver I saw was disk.dll or something - when I checked the driver logging as windows loaded
Good try though

Create a boot DVD with another comptuer and see if you can boot

I can get into the repair and restore console - but it keeps saying that it cannot repair this computer - will those disks get me to something different?
After the computer doesn't boot once I can get to the repair console

Here is a thread from one of our best
http://www.sevenforums.com/installation-setup/105269-windows-7-recovery-disc.html

 

[Voodooca]

Yeah - I will take a look aT that - the only thing that might help is the safe mode startup repair thing - I haven't tried that...

Thanks!!!

 

[Voodooca]

Ok, so I am able to run sfc /scannow from the command prompt through the recovery console - but every time the console starts it tries to repair things... Then when i run sfc it says that there is a pending system repair that requires a reboot... I restart and its all the same thing over again... The system repair just keeps saying that it cannot be done automatically...

Also - when the startup repair fails I am getting an error that says

StartupRepairOffline

This shows in the problem signature area...
I saw lots of others with the same problem but didn't see any real answers...

Ideas??

Chad

 

[richc46]

Have stuff that you dont want to lose on the puter?
pics etc.

 

[Voodooca]

Yeah I have stuff on it, but I can easily transfer them off by hooking the drive as a slave in another computer... I didn't want to start fresh if i could avoid it, but I am coming up dead with ever idea i get and can find.

This is what MS says
Below is a bulletin distributed by MS to explain the start up procedure when Windows will not boot. Startup Repair

Problems starting up a PC can be tricky to fix, since Windows hasn’t had a chance to load its arsenal of troubleshooting tools. Some people simply give up and reinstall Windows.
Startup Repair is designed to prevent a time-consuming reinstallation by diagnosing and repairing problems that prevent Windows from booting. Introduced in Windows Vista, Startup Repair is even easier to use because Windows 7 now installs it on your hard drive for you.

• Startup Repair: frequently asked questions
• What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?

Not much more can be done.I think that we tried safe mode

 

[Voodooca]

Yeah, just keep coming up with dead ends...
Don't ever remember having a problem like this with 95, 98, or xp - at least not one where I cannot boot at all.
Thanks for all the ideas... Likely give it a few more days (see if anyone else has anything...) then start fresh

Thanks
Chad

[Voodooca]

Hi Chris,

I dont have much in the way of "good news" for you...
I never managed to get the drive to boot again normally. I found lots of threads and stories out there with ideas on why it wasnt working, but I had a hard time getting the drive to a point where I could even change anything.

I ended up moving anything important to an alternate drive, format, and reinstall windows 7.

Do you have an option like that?

new motherboard

My case was a new mobo with the original harddisk ->
STOP: 0x0000007B (0x80786B58, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
all the previous didn't do anything,

What did help was the following:
The old settings were looking for a PCIIDE SATA harddisk,
New motherboard worked with AHCI,
So in the bios I could change the sata settings from AHCI to IDE (pciide) and the boot error was gone, and windows 7 booted fully,
but i could not install the new sata drivers.

so I checked if the registry to enable ahci (How to enable AHCI in Windows 7 RC after installation)

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\Msahci
the value of start should be 0 not 3(this is disable)

rebooted and changed bios back to ahci.

and now I could continue


For guys where this is not helping nor possible, maybe changing the registry "offline" will help, with the method of trapsdooropen
Windows 7 installation will not recognize any HDDs

good luck
