in Techie Stuff
Hope some kind person can help.
Over the last couple of days my 7 year old Dell PC on XP (SP3) has been crashing with Blue Screen.
Error message Invalid_Process_Attach_Attempt
STOP: 0x00000005 then other numbers which differ each time.
Last night I rebooted in Safe mode and did a system restore back to 19 May (an achievement for me as I'm not at all techie). I also managed to run a MSE and Malwarebytes quick scan, which found nothing.
Its happened again this morning. Started ok then after a few minutes it crashed. I've tried to find help elsewhere but don't really understand
I haven't installed any new software or hardware for ages - just the regular updates from Microsoft. The only thing I've used is a Kingston Data Locker, butI've used it many times and always shut it down before removing.
Sorry for long post

Post me a DDS log - should take 2-3 minutes.
Download DDS from the link below and save it to your desktop:
Link
After you've downloaded it and saved it to your desktop:- Double click DDS to run it.
- Click Start
- When it's finished, DDS will open two logs:
- DDS.txt
- Attach.txt
Copy & paste the contents of just DDS.txt for now and post it here (you may need to split the log over separate posts)0 -
No idea on this. BSoD errors can be tricky to fix.
As a precautionary measure, I would backup your personal data to DVD disk or pen drive.
I would start with the following:-
1. Run the windows update.
2. Check you are running the latest drivers for your hardware, by visiting the DELL website.
It may be worth re-installing drivers or software that may have got corrupted recently.0 -
@ waddler8 & Nicholas-bloody-Parsons
Thanks both. Had to break off for a while. Since posting I also tried the Start in Last Known Good Configuration option in Safe mode -same Blue Screen:(
Will do DDS log and post asap

I can only speak for my PC. I had the bluescreen problem which gradually got worse and worse. Eventually I got a local PC guy to look at it and he advised removing one of the RAM (memory cards) (if that's the correct terminology) and testing the PC and if that didn't work put that one back and do the same with the other one.
That's exactly what I did and it worked. One of the cards must have been corrupted, I bought two new ones and no more bluescreen. This is what I mean by RAM (memory card)

I've run dds and have saved 2 reports
Notepad (short report) and attach Notepad (much longer)
I've posted the short one
Really puzzled by the 1st couple of lines as I thought I'd uninstalled AVG years ago and definitely keep MSE updated

after 7 years, it would probably benefit from a backup and factory restore, assuming the disk is ok
to check run
chkdsk c: /F
might run better without defender and rapport amd myway!!
