Error code 0000009c

[Luckyricky_1]

Hi all,

First post here :-D

I have been getting a BSOD, my computer just goes to the blue screen and restarts, it has been happening for about 2 weeks, i didn't know it was a blue screen until yesterday as its so quick you have to be watching the screen ! the first part of the code is 0000009c this is NOT the 0x0000009c which as far as i can see is different AND is TOTALLY different format error message !

The FULL error message is below

0000009c, parameter1 00000000, parameter2 8054d370, parameter3 c418c000, parameter4 00000136.


My temps for my motherboard etc is below as i think the cpu is high and might be causing the problem? doesn't hurt me to list them as well

Motherboard = 29
Hard drive = 29
CPU = 49-53 (CPU can hit upto 53 and thats while i have been watching it !)


The BSOD came up when running a high demanding program like 3dMark.
Now it can come up while running bearshare, music, firefox etc etc


My system spec is below

200GB Maxtor Hard drive
2800+ XP MP Processor
Asrock K7NF2-RAID Motherboard
512mb pc3200 ram (unbranded)
450W Power supply (qtec?)


Hope this all helps, and hope you can help me !!

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANYTHING YOU OFFER

Richard

You tried formating? Or doing a windows repair? Maybe it's bad ram also...

Its a RAM problem dude, thats generally a generic STOP message for issues caused by RAM.
Pull it and try a different type, it will most likely solve your issues.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply's
I havn't formatted it as i was thinking it was a hardware problem, so formatting it wouldn't of helped

Well am upgrading in the next 2 weeks so now i know to buy the ram first before my raptors, thanks for the info :-D

Hi,

Me again !!

What ram?

I was thinking corsair 1gb, but there is different types of corsair, i got about £120 to spend, if you could give me 2 types that would be good for me then i can then decide.

Do let me know
