The “BAD EXHANDLE” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error may appear during the initialization process for Windows XP, Vista, 2000, 2008, and Windows 7 and 8. It means that the system has detected an inconsistent handle table entry state or a fault in a device driver, and has to shutdown in order to prevent damage and loss of data. This BSOD error is caused by several factors, such as faulty execution of some processes by newly installed programs, applications and drivers. It may also be due to the corruption of […]

The “AUDIT FAILURE” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error may appear during the initialization process for Windows XP, Vista, 2000, 2008, and Windows 7 and 8. It means that the system encountered failure while conducting an audit, and has to automatically shutdown to prevent damage and data loss. This BSOD error may be due to corrupt system files and unstable system registry that resulted from the improper deletion of applications, incomplete program installation, or an incomplete uninstall. In many instances, the BSOD error is caused by the corruption of system […]

The “BOOTING IN SAFEMODE MINIMAL” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error may appear during the initialization process for Windows XP, Vista, 2000, 2008, and Windows 7 and 8. This error results to the booting of the computer in a Safe Mode without network connections and other services, and the abrupt shutdown of the computer to prevent damage and data loss. The BSOD error is usually caused by damaged or a corrupted Windows system file. Corrupted system files may result from instances such as a recovery of the system from malware […]

The “AGP INVALID ACCESS” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error may appear when the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) or visual processing unit that accelerates the creation of images has performed an unauthorized manipulation or alteration in the AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) memory. It is an indication of a bug or problem with the installed video driver, or outdated BIOS (Basic Input / Output System). In most instances of this BSOD error, the installed video driver is not tested properly, or is unsigned. This BSOD error or Windows Stop message results […]

The “ATTEMPTED SWITCH FROM DPC” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error may appear when the computer abruptly shuts down during the initialization process for older versions of Windows, such as Windows Vista, XP, 2000, 7 and 8. This error is caused by a delayed procedure call (DPC) routine that attempted to perform an illegal operation. The DPC is triggered when the kernel detects a hung condition and makes a call to terminate or interrupt a software. It means that a yield, attach process, or a wait operation was executed from […]

The “AGP GART CORRUPTION” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error is an abrupt shutdown of the computer that results from a bug or an improper memory access by the device driver that utilizes the Direct Memory Access (DMA). This BSOD error means that the GART (Graphics Apperture Remapping Table) has been corrupted, resulting in the shutdown of the computer to prevent data loss. This BSOD error is often due to incompatibilities with installed device drivers and malfunctioning hardware, particularly recently installed devices before the error occurred. This BSOD error is […]

The “AGP INTERNAL”BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error appears on the computer screen when the Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) detects a problem with an installed video device or driver. The AGP functions as a channel that attaches the motherboard of the computer to the installed video card, and helps to accelerate 3D video graphics. The computer implements the automatic shutdown to prevent the loss of important data. This BSOD error is usually associated with drivers that are outdated, corrupted, or incompatible with the installed video adapter. It is also caused […]
