bootcamp and blue screen error!

[babsvii]

i have a new imac and i installed vista via bootcamp... when i start up vista im getting a blue error screen that flashes so fast i cant even ready it... then the computer shuts down... when i restart it again it goes to the page that gives me the choice to safe start or start normal. sometimes it will let me go to windows and work fine but there have been times when it just does that over and over again... does anyone know what this is caused from? im guess ill have to reformat or something.... if i continue to use my computer this way will it wreck something?

If you get into Windows, you need to do the following so we can get the BSOD message:

Right click on "computer" in the start menu. Go to Properties. You should get the "System" control panel window up and on the right hand side should be "Advanced System Settings." On the "Advanced" tab under "Start up and Recovery," click "Settings." Under "System Failure," uncheck "Automatically Restart."

Next time you get a BSOD, it shouldn't restart and you can write down the message. When you get the message, please tell us.

Bsod

I have the same problems with BSOD and I have a minidump that the BSOD created. Would that be helpful to you?

I wish I knew what driver was causing the problem. It seems to BSOD completely randomly.

thanks!

p.s. I'm running windows 7 32bit on my Mac Pro 2.8 8-core. When I installed bootcamp initially it did say there were known incompatibilites with Windows 7, though I haven't seen anyone else mention this anywhere.

Here is what a typical BSOD looks like:

The following info is needed:

If there is a "The problem seems to be caused by the following file:" followed by a name, that is needed.

If there is something in all caps at the top (in this case, it's "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA") that is needed.

Also, anything under "technical information" is needed, specifically the "STOP" message and anything else that seems pertinent (if you see anything that has .sys in it, please copy that down).

The "beginning dump of physical memory" is not needed if you see it.

In order to keep the computer from restarting, right click "computer" in the start menu, go to Properties. You'll now have a control panel window up with system information presented in front of you (like your Windows Experience Index).

Click on "Advanced System Settings" in the left pane. A window with the title of "System Properties" will be presented and you should be on the "Advanced" tab. Under "Startup and Recovery" click settings. A new window will pop up. Under system failure, uncheck "Automatically Restart."

the blue screens are not always the same. Sometimes a "irq_not_equal_to" or something like that. I can send you a screen shot of the last one. Where to?

You can post them on here. You should be able to attach files.

But irq_not-equal_to is sometimes indicative of driver issues as well as memory issues.

ok,
here is the latest blue screen: (attached)

I can be browsing the web, editing voiceover, checking Outlook email. Does't matter. Usually can't work in windows 7 for more than about 20 minutes.

thanks for your help.

I am pretty positive it's a driver issue as OS X and Win XP have no problems on this system.

here's another one

charlesdem, did you load the boot camp drivers and install them sucessfully?

You may want to try re-installing Windows 7 and NOT loading the boot camp drivers. If you have Internet, you should do a Windows Update first and install any drivers it comes up with.

Your error can be a result of bad drivers.

If this doesn't work, you should definitely consider using a finished operating system, like Windows Vista or Windows XP. Contrary to popular belief, Windows 7 IS NOT finished and if it was considered stable, MS would be selling it to us right now.

 

[charlesdem]

Thanks. I totally get that. I did get a message when I installed Bootcamp that there was a known incompatibility with Windows 7 and Bootcamp drivers. It didn't say which driver, though, so I was just hoping these blue screens could tell me what was the bad one and I could just revert to Windows ones. If only Microsoft could make things that easy. This ins't a big deal as I have win XP on dual boot and it's fine. I just like Windows 7 so far so I was looking forward to putting it through its paces.

thanks

i will have to try and take a pic of mine... im not sure what it says but from reading another thread it sounds like it has something to do with the new ati drivers... i have windows vista 64bit installed just so u all know... it only goes to the blue screen sometimes when starting up before it loads. most of the time it starts just fine.... just gets annoying when it does it 2 or 3 times in a row sometimes... im guessing once apple releases new drivers for the new cards it will be fixed... fingers crossed... but i could be wrong, just seems to be what other ppl are thinking so im going along with that...

i also got the same problem and it got solved by deleting the residing
operating system and reloading the os
