Hey guys,
I need some serious help. My computer has been running fine these past 3 weeks since upgrading from 2000 to windows xp, but yesterday I was playing the game "Max Payne" on my computer when it suddenly locked up, yes, locked up in XP. I did a manual shutoff through the power switch since i couldn't reboot, turned it on, the computer booted fine, until it got past the Windows XP boot screen...at which point I just got a blank, black, silent screen that never ends. After going into safe mode and looking through everything (including turning everything off in msconfig and rebooting, ) I discovered that the computer only boots successfully when I uninstall my Nvidia GeForce 2 driver...and after it boots it automatically reinstalls it and I'm back to square one again. I even downloaded the latest Detonator drivers and they don't do a thing.
The 2 errors in my error log when I run it under safe mode EVERY time I've rebooted are:
1)The COM+ Event System detected a bad return code during its internal processing. HRESULT was
8007043C from line 44 of d:\nt\com\com1x\src\events\tie r1\eventsystemobj.cpp. Please contact
Microsoft Product Support Services to report this error.
2)Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error calling routine CoCreateInstance. hr =
0x80040206.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on?...Is there an easy way for quick repair like there was on the Win2k cd? Is there a way to reinstall the OS without having 2 XPs on my system (or at least a way to delete the old one).
Also, a couple days ago I also installed Morpheus, Imesh, Bearshare, and Limewire for downloading purposes, might those have any influence? Someone please help me out here...I drastically need my computer right now ...thanks...
My rig:
Athlon 1.2 gig Athlon 266 FSB
Epox 8KHA
512 Crucial RAM
VisionTek Nvidia GeForce 2
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz Sound Card
Wacom Graphire 2 Pen tablet
