Hello,


I have a Laptop that seems like it wants to work, but for some reason everything I try won't fix the issue and I keep getting "stop: 0x0000008e". I've run: Stress test on the CPU, verified working Swapped out HD, verified working Temp check, nothing wrong. I get to the point of installing windows and the blue screen stop error comes up after the same, boots and loading then freezes... no blue screen though.



Any ideas or should I just scrap the thing.
Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Hai


Search the web using: STOP 0x0000008e
e.g.
"STOP 0x0000008e" error message during Windows XP setup"

Sometimes you can get this error merely because the ram has a poor connection.

In that case, you may also sometimes get the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error.

A common thing that can happen with ram, even ram that worked fine previously, is the ram has, or has developed, a poor connection in it's slot(s).
This usually happens a long time after the ram was installed, but it can happen with new ram, or after moving the computer case from one place to another, and I've had even new modules that needed to have their contacts cleaned.

See response 2 in this - try cleaning the contacts on the ram modules, and making sure the modules are properly seated:

For a laptop, you must remove both its main battery and AC adapter before you do that.
