I got the Mup.sys hang all the time when i started my computer last night and the
problem was due to a defective hard disk. The hard disk was on a Promise Ultra 100
TX2 card and the system was hanging when trying to boot, so i tried to remove some
hardware from the computer to see what was the cause. tried with the mouse first,
no results, then tried to remove the Promise card and to my surprise, it rebooted
just fine. then i tried to reconfigure my computer to put my hard disk that was on
the Promise card, i connected instead on the sec IDE channel and to my big surprise
the SMART from the BIOS told me that my hard drive is going to fail soon and that's
what happened, it failed.
thanks to all the people that replied to this thread, it gave me some solid hints
on how to resolve this.
