Blue stop screen - Can't reformat computer either...
My computer is a Laptop Inspiron 600m. Whenever I turn on my computer, it loads the initial "Dell" screen. Then as it is loading the "Windows" screen, it crashes and goes to the blue stop screen; displaying the following message:
Stop: 0x00000024 (0x001902FE, 0xF89736D4, 0xF89733D0, 0xF83F9F81)
Ntfs.sys - Address F83F9F81 base at F83AA0001, Datestamp 41107eea
I hate tried booting my Windows XP CD, however that does not do much. The Windows XP CD loads alright, but if I press "R" to repair then it crashes to the same blue screen. If I press "Enter" to reinstal Windows XP, it crashes and goes to the same blue screen.
So as you can see...I am out of luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ask, if you need further information on my laptop.
Thanks,
Roman Rozhok

See if a repair reinstall can provide any assistance. Instructions for that are here.

Are you booting from the XP CD or letting it try to autostart from within Windows?

Are you seeing "Press any key to boot from CD..." in white on a black screen when the computer starts?

It should not be necessary, but it might help. Get an emergency boot diskette (you can download one from here) and run FDISK on your hard disk. That will eliminate any traces of the NTFS file system (and with any luck should allow you to do a normal installation without the stinkin' blue screens). Instructions for FDISK are here.

Once they pass, use any sort of boot disk: harddrive manufacturer's disk works well, or just about any boot disk from www.bootdisk.com will generally work. Boot to it and format the drive. Issue resolved.
If you don't have a floppy drive, you can likely load those same files onto a usb key. If you don't have that you can just connect the harddrive to a desktop pc (may have to purchase 2.5" to 3.5" ide converter (abotu $10) to do so) and format drive as a secondary drive, or if you're lazy, take it to a shop and have them do so.
