SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP Sunday, April 4, 2004 at 10:16 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Rod (2 messages posted) Hello, I'm running a FIC AN11 mobo w/ athon 2100+ and 1gb pc2100 ram w/ (2)120gb WDSE in raid 0. My system froze after removing a dig8 camcorder on a firewire connection. I restarted the PC and it goes through the XP logo but after that, the blue screen pops up with a "SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED" message. I can't boot at all in safe mode, or recovery console. I detached the box on my video card (radeon 8500dv). No luck in booting up. I'm using my system for DVD video editing. PLEASE HELP!!!..THANKS...rod Responses to this message: re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Retro: Monday, April 5, 2004 at 1:45 am) All messages in this thread [show all] SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Rod : Sun, Apr 4, 2004, 10:16 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Retro: Mon, Apr 5, 2004, 1:45 am) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Rod : Mon, Apr 5, 2004, 6:30 am) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (muelv: Mon, May 3, 2004, 11:41 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (ernie: Sat, Nov 27, 2004, 8:04 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Jesse: Tue, Oct 4, 2005, 2:57 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Steve: Sat, May 20, 2006, 5:24 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (donald: Mon, Aug 21, 2006, 7:17 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Paul Littler: Mon, Oct 2, 2006, 7:47 am) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Ghahndaulf: Thu, Nov 2, 2006, 6:58 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Tony: Thu, Nov 9, 2006, 5:38 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Shawn Anderson: Tue, Dec 5, 2006, 7:30 am) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (Dr. Levy: Sun, Mar 18, 2007, 4:54 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (cssilver: Sat, Jan 20, 2007, 11:21 am) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (David K: Thu, Mar 1, 2007, 12:45 am) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP (lucam: Sun, Mar 11, 2007, 4:42 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP/2K (lucam: Tue, Mar 13, 2007, 6:32 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP/2K (crtalbot: Sun, Nov 4, 2007, 3:36 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP/2K (Brian: Mon, Mar 31, 2008, 4:21 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP/2K (Bruno: Wed, May 7, 2008, 3:08 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP/2K (Bruno: Wed, May 7, 2008, 3:15 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP/2K (Mehere: Thu, Oct 9, 2008, 9:31 pm) re: SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED Win XP/2K (kgirlx: Thu, Jan 29, 2009, 7:11 am) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows XP Discussion Forum
