Solved Woken up from sleep, instant BSOD 0x5C

[Laith]

Hey SF, i feel so ashamed and embrassed posting a BSOD topic nowadays because i know how to solve BSODs but now i'm clueless. So i woke up went to my room and was ready to play my favorite game. I woke up the computer from sleep and it gave me a BSOD. It's like frozen on the screen or something it won't go away. It's a HAL_INITALIZATION_FAILED which from my BSOD knowledge is very bad. How do i fix it guys?
My guess that the hal.dll is corrupted. It worked very fine yesterday. Should i restart? I'm too scared too..

I can't give you the dumps because the BSOD just won't go away and i'm too scared to restart. What i can give you is the paramenters. (i can't snap a picture because my phone is on low charge)

Bugcheck: 0x5C Paramenters: 0x2001, 0x1, 0x4, 0x0

All you can do is try a restart at this point.

Okay, i hope it will work.

Thank you, John. It really did work. I was too scared too because i thought if i restarted i would get a fatal BSOD not the regular ones. The ones that say if csrss.exe or any other files that are nesscary to launch Windows gets corrupted. 0xc21a i think was the bugcheck. Anyways thanks very much John.

Now to read the dump and see what it says.

Well that was boring. An unknown_image and WinDBG couldn't read the paramenters. Oh well hope this is a one time expereince. Thanks for the help, John. Very much appricated.

I received one BSOD once, just over a year ago to be exact, (a 0x1000007E) but had no dump to analyse. I still have no idea to this day what caused it with nothing to work on but it was a one off and hasn't re-appeared since. Hopefully that's the case here, from my experience 0x5C are rare enough so touch wood it was just a random gremlin. Having said that I'd run an sfc /scannow and run SeaTools on the hard drive just to be on the safe side.

Boozad, i'm going to do that if it happens again. It is rare indeed. I have never seen anybody in 7F having an 5C.
