Unshakable BSOD

[Blazenslayer]

I have installed my Logitech AF camera/mic onto windows 7. Shortly after I received my BSOD. Thinking it was old drivers I tried going into safe mode. It didn't work. Normal boot didn't work and its not even reading my disc or usb backup so I can reformat.

What should I do I can't even get in and repair options aren't working.

Unplug all external devices but the mouse,monitor and keyboard, and try starting in safe mode.

 

[Blazenslayer]

I have done this and still no success.

 

[Maguscreed]

What exactly happens when you attempt to start it in safe mode?

It loads everything up til classpnp.sys afterwards it either freezes or flashes a quick BSOD and restarts. The farthest I ever got was it loading up for 3 seconds and with that 3 seconds I pull this info

Without even analysing the dumps. STOP 0x124 indicates hardware fault, see this thread - http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lockup-debug-how/35349-stop-0x124-what-means-what-try.html

So what happens when you remove all the hardware and nothing nothing works still? The only thing I could think of it being is the old drivers from the camera or daemon tools because I read that on some other forum.

 

[Maguscreed]

this may repair the issue

at least enough to get us back in safe mode.

For Windows 7 and Vista full version installation media, after the "Press any key ... " black screen do steps #1 & #2 then skip down to step #5 below to continue.

But It won't read my disc all I get when I try that is a blinking _ and then it restarts.

Remove all ram over 2 gigs, unplug all external devices.

If it still does not load from the disc, either the disc has a problem, or you have a hardware issue.

I have 2 512mb ram sticks but I removed them each separately when I was following the hardware advice from the stopx124 thread.

I've tried loading windows 7 from a disc and from a usb and no success. I'll try my friends disc on Thursday if I can get over there. Is there any way to disable sptd.sys or uninstall hardware another way?

 

[DeanP]

Daemon Tools is a known cause of BSOD with Windows 7. They use a file sptd.sys which is notorious of causing BSOD w/ Win 7. Remove DT and use this SPTD uninstaller to remove sptd.sys: DuplexSecure - Downloads
Select Uninstall; do not select reinstall

Use MagicDisc or PowerIso.

So should I put this on a USB and boot from it? I can't run the program from my desktop..

 

[DeanP]

You may need to run it as an admin. Right click on the SPTD remover and click run as admin.

Is there anyway to wipe a harddrive outside the PC? I've heard using a magnet, any validity on that?

you can buy a usb drive mate. it allows you to hook up internal hard drives to an adapter which then plugs into a computers USB and it is mounted as a removable hard drive. you can then format it from there.

Do you have a Windows 7 Installation Disc? If you do, boot from the CD and you can format the HDD in the setup wizard.
