Hi,
I have a win NT4 SP6a server installation on a dual xeon (550MHz) machine,
which was running fine for some 5 years....

since yesterday, every time I try to boot, I get a bluescreen:
STOP: 0x00000079 (0x00000002 0x00000002 0x00000000 0x00000000)
irq 1 sysver 0xf0000565 [...]

.... immediately after loading the ntfs.sys driver.

- vga mode / filesafe does not help
- the disk is fine, also the ntfs-driver (i checked it on another nt machine)
- hardware seems to be fine (according to all chardware-checkers and
alternative operating systems I runned from CD)

Although I have data backup, I would like to save/recover the installation.
Does somebody have a clue what is wrong with my system?

Thanks in advance,

Philipp

Hi Philipp,

look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841384/ - there you get most
probably a solution for your problem.

Read that article first

obviousely this problem appears also with other security updates, if the
dual processor line is missing in your \winnt\repair\setup.log, and if you
did several updates together without rebooting. So you have to go back to an
even earlier version of the kernel. look what you can find with a search for
ntoskrnl.exe!
(for the operation, it is also handy to insert the system disk into another
windows computer..)

good luck,

Philipp
