The hard drive has failed - you'll need a new one.  If you need further information we'll need to know what model system you have.

Hello,

I'd like to know the cause of this error please.

I have a lot of issues with my Dell XPS 15z and this is just one of them.

Here is the error message

"The exception unknown software exception (0xe0434352) occured in the application at location 0xfd32940d"

I am a year later, but my Dell Inspiron 15R 5537 has crashed.  

The diagnostic result is also an error code 2000-0142.

My service Tag is <ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed per privacy policy> .

I have had the laptop just over a year so it is probably 1 month past the warranty period.

Help what can I do?

2000-0142 means that your hard drive is failing or had failed.

If under warranty, contact Dell Tech Support in your Country.

If not under warranty, then you'll need to replace the hard drive.
