Starting Vista stops with BSOD due to a win32k.sys error.
I tried to replace the bad file, but it appears in so many locations, that I don't know which one is the wrong one.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Thank you none88.
But I didn't find the solution in the link you sent.
Here is the whole error message of my BSOD:

SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
***STOP:0x0000003B(0x00000000"C"00000C,0xFFFFF9600001EA755,0xFFFFFA6005221BE0,0x0000000000000000)
***win32k.sys - Address FFFFF960001EA755 base at FFFFF96000000000,DataStamp 48d1bca9

PS
"C" stands for the logical "belongs to".
