BSOD on startup

As soon as Vista loading is complete I get a miserable BSOD...and my system restarted.
It booted normally after restart and after logging on I got these messages(pinned).
I always have the reciever of my Microsoft optical mouse,the USB head of my Belkin cooler and the USB head of my Logitech Basic Keyboard connected.

 

How often does this startup BSOD occur?

Alot large number of things could be causing this.

Try reducing the uneccessary startup programs in MSconfig. Try starting up with the bare minimum if possible.

Start > Type MSCONFIG > Startup tab

 

To try and narrow it down go check those log files that are referenced and see if you can match up any offending programs to the crash. As flipfire said it can be caused by many different sources so the more digging you can do the faster you can resolve the issue.

Its because of a Driver corrupting the system pool. If you have updated any drivers recently, rollback. Or update all system drivers.

Also, Vista has issues booting with so many USB devices connected. Each USB device has a driver of its own, so there's a 90% chance that one of the devices connected is causing the BSOD.

Go into Event Viewer (EventVwr.msc), and check the System log, and see if you can trace the exact driver causing the BSOD.

 

Again! This has started to occur very frequently. I downloaded the minidump viewer..and looks like it may be caused by ntkrnlpa.exe(dont know what this is)..Anyway,do you guys rule out any hardware problem(possibly RAM)?
I also viewed another minidump(just today another BSOD)...and that was probably caused by ndis.sys.
WHATS UP WITH MY PC?!

 

ntkrnlpa.exe is a process info for NT Kernel & System.

ndis.sys file is a Windows core system file.

Based on the quick google search I did it looks like they are typically driver related. The best guess I'd have is to use a Vista Anywhere cd and do a repair OS operation and keep those external devices disconnected until you can get the laptop stable again, then try and experiment to see which device is causing the problem. I use a wireless M$ mouse and don't have any problems so its probably the external keyboard or cooler.

You can google those exe's and it will give you a number of links for suggestions and ideas but more often than not its easier to just repair the OS and move on.

Good Luck,

thanks to all Flipfire,reby,Andy

I called up HP and the suggested me to backup files and do a recovery...(but bloatware again!)...
Thats what I am going to do now and....that was probably happening due to some corrupt Vista files.
Thanks again
