Start-up Blue Screen - STOP: 0x00000024

[Desperato]

A blue screen with the following information appears when I try to boot up my Dimension 5100:

STOP: 0x00000024 (0x00190203, 0x8258B520, 0xC0000102, 0x00000000)

What the...?

Please help if you can. THANKS!

Hi Desperato, write down the numbers on a sheet a paper or record them somewhere. If the BSoD appears again, check to see if the hexadecimal numbers are the same. If they are then you most likely have a RAM error. If not, then you might have some software problems or other issues.

Hi! You need to write down the error message you get at the top of the screen, like IRQ_LESS_... or whatever it says at the beginning. Also, next to that stop part at the bottom of the screen, look for more information...does it specify any file name or something? Post back with more info.
