Tried booting a spare computer we had that hasn't been used in about a year. It would either reboot itself and the windows loading screen or give me a stop error screen that said
RIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Then under it had Technical Information STOP then a bunch of Zero numbers..Under that it..
atapi.sys - Adress F94705F8 ((Does atapi have something to do with the motherboard?))
What I did to try and solve the problem.
1. I tried different amounts of ram...and in different slots. (Did not help)
2. I took the video card out. (Did not help)
3. I tried some other ram I had laying about..same results, but new error message.
MACHINE_CHECK_EXECEPTION
4. Deleted the partition and created another one and tried to install a fresh copy of windows. It would get about 10 minutes into the installation(After the format) and would either just reboot or just give me that same error message.
5. I took the harddrive out and put it in another PC and installed a fresh copy of windows on it without any problems.
Whenever, I put it back into the other PC it booted all the way to windows.((NOTE: I lost the drivers CD..so after I installed Windows I couldn't reinstall any of the drivers))
Then it would pop up a screen that said
Windows has recovered from a serious error.
and ask me to send to Microsoft...after being booted to windows for about a minute or two it would either reboot(This happened more than the error msg)) or give me that same error message.
The system specs are
CPU: Intel Celeron D 3.6ghz
Mobo: Asus P5GDM1-VM((Those are the bold numbers on the Mobo itself)
Ram: Some off band crap DDR.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am stuck on what to do now.
