Hello

I was just upgrading a fairly old pc (Compaq Evo SFF), Put a fresh copy of windows on, installed GFX drivers, installed wireless USB drivers, and just as i was about to install the USB 2 drivers, the PC restart, and got stuck in an endless reboot loop, tried safe mode, last good config and neither of them worked, what seemed to solve it was unplugging USB devices, then it would loads windows. By looking at event viewer the error codes are

STOP 0x000000050 page fault in non paged area

and STOP 0x00000007e system thread exception not handled

Annoying thing was it didnt identify a driver in the bsods.

help much appreciated.


Spec is:

Pentium 4 2.0Ghz
512mb of ram
30GB hdd
Intel integrated grahics

Did you put all the service packs on Windoze first, then try the latest usb2 drivers from hp/compaq's web site?

Hey,

I got so fed up with it i decided to start afresh again.and format. The usb drivers were form the hp compaq website. and yes windows was fully patched with SP2.
