About Lorry
Expertise
I can answer most questions regarding viruses/Trojans and help to remove them.

Experience
This happens to be of interest to me as it boggles my mind that people have nothing better to do than to write a virus. Wish these people, the ones who write viruses would put the knowledge to good use instead. My job as a local tech involves removing viruses and/or spyware.

Computer Security & Viruses - Startdrv failed to start and blue screen of death

Expert: Lorry - 7/15/2008

Question
Hello,

Everytime I use my computer I get the message "startdrv.exe has encountered an error and needs to close"...

Also, after I use my computer for awhile I almost always get the blue screen of death (stop 0x0000008e). This can be from a few minutes to over an hour, but it always happens. I have ran HJT and pasted the log file. If I can't get this fixed then I guess my only other choise is re-installing windows xp...Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.

Answer
Hi Geoff,

Go to Windows Update and download the available updates, including Internet Explorer7.

Possible causes for the "Stop 0x0000008E" error are explained at:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/945658/

Check out the following also:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827663

You have viruses on the computer. Using internet Explorer, go to:

http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/default.asp?langid=ie&venid=sym

Click the GO button, then under Virus Detection, click Start. You might be told that you need to download and install ActiveX Controls for the scan to work, answer Yes.

Write down exactly anything it finds, then go to: http://www.symantec.com/search/ and do a search for what was found. Symantec usually has a removal tool and/or directions for removing manually. Make sure that you follow the instructions for removal, step by step, especially the part regarding disabling System Restore.

Hope this helps!
