[BSOD 0x000000c5]

Can anyone tell me what this windows xp error code means?

BCCode : 100000c5 BCP1 : 00000000 BCP2 : 00000002 BCP3 : 00000001

Hello Brew,

Here's a MS reference on how to find error codes: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/support/xpevnt.mspx

Could you give us background on when this happens? Is this a blue screen?

Regards - Charles

 

This is the error after a stop error blue screen.
The story,
Very seldom my pc would crash and reboot. I changed the setting so I would
see the error and that it would not reboot. The stop BSOD points to
0x000000c5. The error I pasted is from the "you computer has recovered from a seroius issue would yiou like to report the following"
MS says this is a driver issue and to use driver verify.
Well I don't know if you have used driver verify but slows your pc down awful. As this trbl occurs less than once a week I have turned it back off.
I would like to fix my pc and was hoping some techie out there would be able to read the code and point me to the right area.

 

Hello Brew01,

This is a error associated with SP2 - driver issues as you mentioned.

Two fixes come to mind:

Uninstall SP2, clean up the aftermath, and try re installing it.

Find the offfending app, have you tried disabling your apps one by one - the kind that's mentioned in the article - and narrowing it down that way?

If you found the particular app, depending on what it was, may be easier to switch the app and I would try that first.
