I'm running an athlon xp 1700+
20gig maxtor hdd
80gig maxtor hdd
128mb ram
256mb ram
cd
cdr
radeon 9200
old via motherboard...
I ran it on no cache in my bios. Overclocked it from 1.47 to 1.64ghz for a month
or so.
Ive had my comp for 3 years and this is the first time Ive ran into this mup.sys
crap. My computer would go into "Core memory dump" or whatever whenever I ran a
movie that I guess was to much to handle.
But as of yesterday I was playing this one movie and my comp just froze. I rebooted
to find the mup.sys problem when I did safe mood.
Normally my computer would just do a "Physical memory dump" to 100. Whatever 100
meant was the about of physical memory in my processor???
Ive tried most of the other suggestions: Switching around ram, taking off cards,
taking off my 80 gig hdd, booting from window xp cd, using chkdsk /r or /f or /p,
using f5 and none of that helped.
I'm pretty sure the problem is that my physical memory is full and cannot be unloaded.
I did a quick reformat on my 20gig since it just holds my windows and other system
folders. I did this last night around 1am and it finished around 8pm tonight. Now
I dont have iexplorer installed and I cant use the windows xp themes. A bunch of
other crap is missing from when the usually reformats.
I'm guessing that it is a processor problem and not a mup.sys or power problem.
Whatever the physical memory is on my system it was what messed my computer up.
:-/ but yea.. doing a format c: got me back into my hdd. I prolly should look into
dumping physical memory... and all the problems into that before I reformatted. Oh
well.
Hope this helps.
