Bug Check 0x6B: PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED
Important Information If You Have Received a STOP Code
If you have received a blue screen error, or stop code, the computer has shut down abruptly to protect itself from data loss. A hardware device, its driver, or related software might have caused this error. If your copy of Windows came with your computer, call the manufacturer of your computer. If you purchased Windows separately from your computer, Microsoft provides support. To find contact information for Microsoft or your computer manufacturer,
Contact Support.
If you have experience with computers and want to try to recover from this error, follow the steps provided in the Microsoft article
Resolving STOP (Blue Screen) Errors in Windows.
The following actions might prevent an error like this from happening again:
- Download and install updates and device drivers for your computer from Windows Update.
- Scan your computer for computer viruses.
- Check your hard disk for errors.
Cause
Any part of the disk subsystem can cause the PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED bug check, including bad disks, bad or incorrect cables, mixing different ATA-type devices on the same chain, or drives that are not available because of hardware regeneration.
This bug check can also be caused by a missing file from the boot partition or by a driver file that a user accidentally disabled in the
Drivers tab.
I would call bad hard drive on this. No way you can have XP, Vista and Win7 all BSoD and not have a hardware issue underlying.
