Problems with PC bluescreening - failing to boot up
Hi
Have been running my PC now for the last 3months - I had a custom spec built by a group of engineers - and everything had been working great/compatible. FWIW I am running - Quadro Processor Geforce 7600 XT 3 Monitors 4gb Ram Windows Vista x64 blahblah . . I had a problem w/ the PC and they decided to reformat it . . SO I booted the PC up fine and it was working w/ none of the drivers installed - I run 3 monitors so therefore I decided to reinstall the program I had previously been using from Nvidia's website (the appropiate one for my graphics card) - Forceware Release 163 - and the regular Windows updates. This appears to install sucessfully - however after 10minutes the computer decided to restart itself and boot up with a blue screen error. I restart it and then it boots up with a black screen telling me: "Boot Manager: file: /windows/system32/DRIVERS/nustor64.sys Status: 0xc000000f Info: Windows failed to load a critical system driver - is either missing or corrupt" Is anyone familiar with this sort of problem? OR advises on how to proceed? I spoke to a friend who knows a little about the computers and suggested by Graphics Card maybe burning out or I am installing dummy drivers? (I do need the drivers to run the 3 monitors). All the best - advice much appreciated Chris |

Re: Problems with PC bluescreening - failing to boot up
First thing I would do is run memory and hard drive diagnostics.
Memory Test Hard Drive Test Very common for flaky memory to cause corruption and blue screens. If it fails, try running memory test 1 stick at a time. |
