Access to the floppy drive crashes Windows with code: 0X000000F7

After you have installed the Windows XP updates a week ago (10/22/09 - while others seem to have gotten 0x000000E7 BSOD), my computer hangs when you try to use the floppy drive.  Neighbor has same problem.  However, another neighbour, who did not install the updates since 1 September doesn't have this problem.  We use Windows XP.  I even created a file on the diskette using the player of the 'good' of the neighbor and tried in my computer and the neighbour - always crushed the two machines.  Saw post to that topic or similar problem the other day, but he lost it when I hit the wrong button and cannot find him. Help!

He is now 10/29 (5:20 pm EDT), and after three days of trying to solve this problem, I'm really frustrated.  Carefully removed eight updates installed since 14/10/2009. I removed them one at a time in reverse order, they were installed (LIFO) and I tried using the floppy after each removal drive, but still get BSOD. My BIOS/CMOS watch floppy drive and my device manager says its working. I even deleted the physically and in the BIOS, floppy drive deleted the contoller of floppy and drivers floppy drive in Device Manager. restarted and other devices working properly.  Reinstalled drive, reset the BIOS, restarted and Windows loaded automatically (as checked in the Device Manager) drivers - always get BSOD when trying to read the disk.

I would have completely uninstalled CA, except that this user really liked the CA email spam filtering. So, I disabled the antivirus and antispyware of all parties and uninstalled the CA Personal Firewall, and here, the floppy drive has started working. I then installed the new Microsoft Security Essentials to prvide a / v sp and psyware protection.

  • How can I block access to the hard drive to windows when the computer is blocked?

    When I leave the computer on and 'blocked' option it accesses the hard drive and "work like crazy. Simple I want to block all the software to access the disk hard until I connect again.

    I want the computer to be available on the network, but does not.

    Thank you

    Sorry, but that is simply not possible.  Each computer doing something, if you're connected or not, each tick every millisecond it's on.  If you could freeze the process somehow, you would also freeze the processes and services that would allow you to access the network. Better, we advise to leave it alone, lock to prevent others from accessing and then do what you need to on the network.

  • Is there anyway to block browser multimedia hearing CC and first Pro CC? Our policy is that no student or teacher have access to the C drive. But with the CC of the hearing and first Pro CC, they can see the files on disc and access of C.

    I'm trying to block the multimedia browser of hearing CC and CC Pro management. I know that you can configure the workspace without him but you can add it back in at any time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    There is no way to block the media browser, as the functions provided by which are very important... it is THE right way to navigate to the media and other goods to fill a project and its sequences. Anyone using the PrPro MUST have access to this Panel.

  • VMware Workstation 10 bug: DVD SATA drive does not start if we disable the floppy drive in the VMware BIOS

    Hello

    I use VMware Workstation 10, and I found a bug:

    With the all-new virtual machine (for example with Windows 8 x 64), if I choose a hard SATA and SATA DVD drive in VMware and I have to disable the floppy drive in the VMware BIOS, Windows 8 (or Windows 7) ISO does not start.

    If I come back in the BIOS to enable the floppy drive once again, my ISO boot.

    If I use the DVD IDE drive in VMware options, no problem if I disable the floppy drive.

    With "EFI mode", no bugs.

    Please, can you solve this problem? Thank you

    Hi freebeing,

    Thank you for reporting this issue.  We have reproduced it is internal and work on it.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Disks: I don't think so. I always keep 25 floppy disks for Windows 95, should be a few thousand disks for Windows 10. Very, very, very expensive to store files and transport.

  • Stopper 0x000000F7 blue screen error occurs when you try to access the floppy drive.

    The error occurs on computers 3differnt.  Sometimes using "My Computer" to access the floppy drive.  Malware, spyware and viruses, the computer has been verified.  Clean everything. No new disk drivers listed.

    Tell us what you have done that you are convinced that it's clean... Here is a description of the error code in the Windows debugging tools help file:
    "Bug Check 0xF7: DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER.
    Bug Check 0xF7: DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER

    Cause

    A driver invaded a buffer based on the stack (or a local variable) in a way that would have replaced the function's return address and jumped to an arbitrary address when the function returned. »

    This is the classic "buffer overflow" attacks of piracy in my opinion. The system has been reduced to prevent a malicious user to take complete control of it.

    This is very probably a malware problem or a problem with a driver.  I suggest several anti-malware scans to make sure you are clean and then begin to check your drivers to see if there are some more updated versions available.

  • System crash when I install the bluetooth driver in windows 8.1

    HP Pavilion 15-e034tx

    When I install bluetooth driver in system failure windows 8.1 with this error "unhandled Thread Exception system.

    Bluetooth hardware ID: PCI\VEN_1814 & DEV_3298 & SUBSYS_18EC103C & REV_00

    Sir where is Bluetooth for Windows 8.1 driver?

    can someone help me please?

    Hello everyone I found the solution to this problem of Bluetooth. First of all, I want to share the essue of Blutooth hand in windows 8.1.

    History is actually a bit interesting: Microsoft has fixed a bug in the rollup of November which exposed a bug previously hidden in Bluetooth drivers for Ralink/Mediatek, resulting in all the world with a fully-updated Windows 8.1 and Ralink bluetooth (very common in low price/low-end systems) to BSoD unless the bumps users to a system restore point before updates of November. So yes, there are sometimes dangers for fixing bugs.

    Basic requirements:

    1. all drivers for HP laptop, BIOS and windows 8.1 implemented to date with the latest updates.

    File Requirements:

    1 8.1 Windows file update kb2917488 - x 64 (download link)

    http://www.4shared.com/RAR/CP-Ov9Hv/blutooth_update_fix.html

    2. Ralink software Bluetooth driver (windows 8 or 8.1 Windows)

    Basic steps:

    First check windows update, download and install any updates. Also download and install the latest driver for windows 8.1

    Download file update 8.1 for Windows kb2917488 - x 64 in 4shared link. (File name: Bluetooth fix)

    kb2917488 - x 64 Windows 8.1 updated in.cab(cabinet file) If you need to know how to install the .cab file installation.

    The .cab file installation steps

    Open the administrator command prompt and run the following command to install and integrate the Archives of Cabinet:

    Pkgmgr/ip/m:.cab / quiet

    Or,

    start/wait pkgmgr/ip/m:.cab / quiet

    Replace with the path (location) for the file .cab and with the file name of the cab without parentheses. If the CAB file is in the current directory (same directory where the command is executed, the path can be ignored.

    Example: pkgmgr /ip /m:C:\Users\User update fix\windows8.1-kb2917488-x64_43f3b89601d407a00cbf87297ab1ddb0ba1c4619.cab/quiet

    (If you do not understand the method of installing the .cab file search for it on google)

    This command silently install the Windows kb2917488 8.1 update file - x 64 in your system... complete installing the automatic system successfully reboots (wait automatic reboot)

    Now you can install your old windows 8 Ralink Driver Bluetooth software or update the latest driver with HP Support Assistant in windows 8.1.

    (Note: install all the drivers to run as Administration) (Sorry for the bad English)

  • Cannot get the floppy drive to work.

    Well, maybe noone here will want to address this issue, but I really need an answer that I use the files mentioned below in my profession. Any help would be appreciated. And if I posted this in the wrong place, sorry, this is the first time I used these forums and didn't really know where to post. 

    OK, I know this floppy are are outdated, but I have a bunch of files that I created years ago when the diskette was everything you had.

    I had a disk in my computer that I was using and one day I tried to open some files in the floppy drive and it says that the disk has not been formatted and I wanted to format the IDE drive.

    I got a new floppy disk and it says the same thing. I tried to format it and received a message that said Windows cannot format the drive.

    So, I thought that maybe the old IDE floppy drive had gone belly up. I ordered a new floppy USB of TigerDirect drive and installed. It does the same thing.

    Can someone help me get this floppy drive so that I can access work files.

    I have a HP Compaq dc7600 form small computer running XP Pro SP 3. The floppy drive I ordered is an external USB floppy drive PowerUp G54-8016.

    I have a Zip USB drive and it works.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I don't know why the IDE floppy drive was working and then quit, and now the new floppy drive will not work.

    Hi kemperhills,

    ·          Is it possible to check if the floppies are still good?

    ·          The diskette was made read-only?

    According to this Microsoft article this could happen because the disks are bad:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/140060

    Was there a kind of switch on it? If so have them try to change the switch and try again.

    Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

    Kind regards

    Hi JC_226,

    This isn't the Windows feature. Can not disable access to the cd player while windows is locked. However, there is an option to disable the CD/DVD device. To do this, you can follow these steps:
    a. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc, and then click ok.
    b. in the list of objects, expand CD/DVD players.
    c. right-click on the sub element and click on disable.
    d. follow the instructions in the wizard to disable the device.

    Important: If you disable a device that is required to start the system, such as your floppy drive or CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive, these devices will not work, and your system might not start.
