Re: Backup crashes my computer

I just got an email from Microsoft. They state there is an unpublished fix
for Windows XP Pro for the error mentioned that can be downloaded and with a
password can be unlocked and installed on your computer. But to show the
public just how uncaring Microsoft is and the public should be aware of that
in case they ever have a similar problem., Microsoft states unornunately
there is no fix to date for Windows Media Menter 2005. And in their
ultimate generiosity they state that I can contact Microsoft Support by
Telephone for a fixed per incident fee. I am very aware of what that fee is
and it is $59.95. That may be "insignificant " to Microsoft but it
represents many hours of hard manual labor to me. In other words
Microsoft's policy is "We know you have a problem but if you don't want to
fix it yourself F.U."

I just hope some employee of Microsoft reads these news groups. And I am
sure some do, they get a taste of how Microsoft comes off to the users of
their products. No wonder there is a resurgence in the Apple product line
and new blood is being added to the Linux project. Because Dell has the
forsight to be adding Linux to their server line, I may in the future when I
have enough to afford it be switching to a Dell Server.

Thank you for the information. Exhaustive searching those sites provided
nothing for STOP: 0x00000019 ( 0x00000020, 0xe9f442d8, 0xe9f442f8,
0x0c040408 ). Narrowing the search to just SOP: 0x00000019 ( 0x00000020
provide 2 microsoft links neither of which apply to Windows XP Pro Media
Center 2005 addition computer. Trying to find anything on the Microsoft
website is looking for a needle in a haystack..It would probably be easier
to find Osama Bin Laden than get any help from Microsoft unless you want
to pay then $59.95 per incicent for them to stumble and bumble around and
provide nothing that helps.

I really appreciate those who are trying to help. It is frustrating when
you do not possess nearly as much knowledge as they do.

It states if this is the first time you see this error, restart your
computer, if it continues, check any newly installed hardware to
insure that it is installed correctly.

Does any of this make any sense. It makes none to me.

I have no idea what the POOL Header is or how to research why it is
bad or what it should be.

The only NEW hardware installed on this computer is

1. A 4 port USB 2.0 PCI card, and the software installation of
drivers said it installed successfully.

It was installed because the internal USB ports died on this computer
disallowing me access to my ipod and various thumb or external hard
drives.
They now work on the 4 port card.

2. A maxtor One Touch USB External 250 GB hard drive. If the drivers
for this are the offender, I can easily dump this ***. I would
rather backup to the server.

Where do you turn off "Automatically Restart" ?

System Properties (Windows + Pause/Break keys), Advanced tab,
"Startup and Recovery" Settings button. It's a checkbox in the
System failure part.

The details in the recovered from serious error post that is sent to
Microsoft first sequence of codes is BCCODE:19

If I look at the events error listing in Administrators window, the
error listed in red is 102 event 1003.

I did a google serach of Error 102 and found a listing FIX System
102 errors for free. What a joke, it directed me to the Regcure
website. I downloaded the software and paid them $29.95 to cure my
registry and fix 102 errors. Bah Humbug ! It said it fixed a lot of
registry errors but it didn't fix whatever is causing my computer
to crash when attempting a backup. It still does after running
Regcure's so called fix.

server have no problem just this HP computer with the Media Center
2005 software on it. The other computers have either Windows XP
Professional or Windows XP Home on them.
I cannot do any kind of na backup to any form of hardware without
having the same results on this HP computer.

I have tried to external hardrives, to the local hard drive, to a
DVD, to a CD, and by using Roxio Creator 9 backup, or even just
trying to backup My Documents to the desktop using system tools
backup included with the software on the HP computer. Same
results everytime. CRASH ! CRASH! CRASH!
chkdsk finds no problems with the local hard drive a 500 GB SATA
drive.
There is 2 GB of DDR@ memory in the computer

I have spent over 10 hours online with HP support and 0 positive
reults.
The last suggestion was to set "Use Pagefile" to No

That made no difference.

Does anyone know what may be going on that this computer does not
want to do a backup ?
