I have google'd this problem for about an hour now and none of the fixes worked for me. When I run Windows it BSOD's at the loading screen. If I boot in Safe mode, it gets to MUP.sys then it comes up press Esc if you do not wish to load Vax347b.sys. If I press Esc it BSOD's. If I dont press Esc it BSOD's. I tried chkdsk and it said it fixed one or more erros but yet it still BSOD's. If all else fails I can just use the second copy of windows that I installed but then I have to reinstall all the new drivers and update windows and install all my programs over...and help would be appreciated!
You
could try recovering MUP.sys from the windows XP recovery console. To do this
Insert the Windows XP Home Edition/Professional/Media Center Recovery disk that came with your system.
Reboot your computer-> Press F12 Rapidly -> when the Boot Menu loads, choose "Boot From CD-ROM." When all files in the Disk are loaded, choose "R" for Repair.
I have 2 versions of windows now installed
1) Nothing on it but it runs (C:/RECOVER)
2) My old one with everything it but it BSOD's (C:/WINDOWS)
Can I just go on the working one then goto C:/WINDOWS/System32/Drivers/Mup.sys and just delete it? I'll try that now I guess. I thought Mup.sys was a needed file though.
I took out Mup.sys and now it just crashed on the driver before that...can someone please help me I don't know how to fix this and after google-ing for a long time I only found that 1) It could be a pirted copy of windows...but I got it from Dell so that couldn't be the problem or
2)Hardware error, but I can run the second version of windows I installed, C:/RECOVER works just fine...
Does any have any ideas please?
