STOP 0x0000000A (Windows Vista)

Source
0x000000A (Parameter 1, Parameter 2, Parameter 3, Parameter 4)
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Parameter 1 – The address of memory that was incorrectly accessed
Parameter 2 – The interrupt request level (IRQL) that was required
Parameter 3 – The type of operation, read-0, write-1
Parameter 4 – The address of the instruction itself
Applicable to the following Vista configurations: Home Basic, Home Premium, Ultimate, Business, Enterprise, Starter, Home Basic N, Business N, Business 64-bit Edition, Home Basic 64-bit Edition and Business N 64-bit Edition.
This STOP error can occur during startup or at any other time. The 8 digit hexadecimal number 0x0000000A translates to the bug check code “IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL” which may be caused by the following:
  1. A kernel-level application or device driver running in kernel mode tried to read or write to a memory location that had restricted permissions.
    The code IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL indicates that the interrupt request level (IRQL) was higher than the number that was expected. A process running in kernel mode cannot access a process that has an IRQL which is greater than its own.
  2. Components of the hardware may have failed such as the memory chip, the processor or motherboard. It may also indicate problems in video or disk adapters or device driver incompatibility issues.
  3. Computer Hardware may not be Vista compatible.
    This STOP error usually results from the faulty installation of System Services, BIOS firmware or device drivers. It can also be caused by incompatible virus scanners or backup tools.
  4. Sometimes viruses or the anti-virus software that is running on the computer may cause problems.
  5. Third party software applications such as device drivers may also have software bugs which access unprotected or restricted memory. Sometimes the name of the application or driver that caused this problem will be displayed on the screen immediately after the STOP error information.
  6. You are trying to install Vista on a computer with more than 3GB of RAM
  7. You are trying to install Vista on a computer which is running a Storport miniport driver
  8. You are trying to install Vista on a computer that has a controller that utilizes 32-bit DMA (direct memory access).
  9. Repeatedly putting a laptop with Vista operating system on a sleep cycle mode can also cause this problem.
  10. Computer runs QuickTime 7 on Vista which is trying to open a movie file with .mov extension.

Solutions:

  1. First clear all external device drives of CDs, DVDs, Floppy disks, etc. Verify that your hardware is compatible with the operating system.
  2. Remove all external peripherals such as printers, faxes, cameras, network adapters, sound cards, and serial cards, other USB devices, etc.
  3. Try to restart the computer. If you cannot restart it using the mouse or keyboard options, shut down the computer by pressing down the manual Power button for a few seconds. When the computer has completely shut down, press the button again to restart the computer.
  4. As the computer restarts, press and hold the F8 key before the Windows Logo appears.
  5. Use the arrow keys to select “Repair the computer” in the “Advanced Boot Options” menu.
  6. Choose a keyboard layout and login using username and password.
  7. Choose Startup Repair from the menu for “System Recovery Options”.
  8. The Startup Repair process will try to repair the computer.
  9. Add each device or peripheral ONE at a time and restart the system after every addition.
  10. Verify that all the software updates are installed for the current Operating system as well as on all device drivers and external third party software on the system.
  11. If the computer recovers and is running, then check the “Problem Reports and Solutions” page or VISTA. Click on Start->Control Panel->System and Maintenance->Problem Reports and Solutions. This facility searches online for device driver updates and solutions to problems caused by external hardware or software.
  12. If Windows Vista was installed on an older computer, determine from the computer manufacturer’s website whether the BIOS setup for the old computer is compatible with Vista OS. Install updates if required.
  13. If the error appears during restart (and the restart is successful in spite of the error) , set the Windows Memory Diagnostic to get more details about the problems during restart:

    a. Click on Start->All Programs->Accessories. Right-click on Command-Prompt and choose “Run as administrator”
    b. Enter mdshed.exe at the command prompt. Schedule the tool to run at the next restart.

  14. You can also monitor and diagnose the Vista system using the Reliability and Performance Monitors to check for CPU faults and real-time monitoring of the system with the Windows performance Diagnostic Console. You will need administrator privileges to run this monitor.

HOW TO Debug Memory Dumps

Perhaps this may help:
Load the dump in windbg and un the !analyze -v command and paste the results that u get over here.
Running dumpcheck on the dump will not help us determine the cause of the issue. All that it does is verifies the integrity of the dump and that a memory dump file has been created correctly

HOW TO: Debug Memory Dumps (Figure out what is causing a BSOD)
http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35246
When you get a stop error (Blue Screen of Death), your system writes a small file called a minidump. This is a small write up on how to debug memory dumps. This becomes extremely useful when you are trying to figure out what caused a particular stop error, and no filename was mentioned and/or it is undocumented.
You could always let Microsoft do it for you, but there is no gurantee they will answer, and it takes a very long time (over a month in my case).
Your first step is to make certain your computer is setup to record memory dumps. The small dumps are most desirable, because they aren't the size of your amount of ram!

Right click My Computer, choose properties. Click on the advanced tab, and then choose startup and recovery 'settings.' From the screenshot attached at the bottom you will see the settings you want. By default, this is largely how it is already setup; I only unchecked automatically restart for XP. For Vista, there is an extra step involved, you must click start, right click computer. Then from the next screen, click Advanced system settings. Then, its in the same location as XP. I have attached a Vista screenshot, as the options are a little different.

Note: Make certain that your pagefile still resides on the system partition, otherwise WIndows will not be able to save the debug files.
Your second step is to download and install the Microsoft Debugging Tools found here: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtoo...nstallx86.mspx
Once you have downloaded and installed these tools, go to start, all programs, Debugging Tools For Windows, Windbg. Once you open Windbg, you will presented with a blank screen. Click on File, Symbol File Path. Here you will enter the symbols path. Symbols are needed to effectively debug.
The path will be:
SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
Enter in this path and click OK. Now, go to File, Save Workspace so that your symbols path is saved for future use. Now what you want to do is locate your memory dumps. They are usually located in %systemroot%/minidump (in my case C:/windows/minidump).
If you notice, they are usually named the date, and then a -*number* to indicate the order of minidumps that day. My example is called Mini061904-01.dmp (it happened today).

Inside of Windbg, go to File, Open Crash Dump and load the file. You will get a message to save base workspace information. Choose no.
Now you will get a debugging screen. Now it takes a little bit to run it, as the symbols have to be downloaded as they are needed. Then you will see information such as:
Symbol search path is: SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

Update: After the intial run of the debug process, you can use the command !analyze -v to gather more information.
Now that may be more info than you need. This tutorial only covers minidumps, however, if needed, you could change your memory dump options to do a complete dump. This is useful, however, very cumbersome, as the file generated will be the same size as your amount of ram.
Note: Make absolutely sure that your symbol path is correct. If it isn't, then you will get symbol errors and not likely be able to debug the dump to get the info you desire.
I hope this info is useful, I find it invaluable to finding out what is causing random, sporadic, and/or obscure stop errors.
Once the above has been run then please attach your Mini-Dump in a text file (can use Notepad for this), here is a guide on how to attach the logs HOW TO: Attach Items To Your Post

Windows Stopcodes

Source
STOP Messages literally mean Windows has stopped!
These appear only in the NT-based operating systems: Win NT, Win 2000, and Win XP. Most are hardware issues. STOP messages are identified by an 8-digit hexadecimal number, but also commonly written in a shorthand notation; e.g., a STOP 0x0000000A may also be written Stop 0xA. Four additional 8-digit hex numbers may appear in parentheses, usually unique to your computer and the particular situation.
NOTE: Many users search this site for the word minidump which often accompanies these Stop Message errors. The fact that a memory minidump occurred tells you nothing except what you already know — that there was an error. It is the name of the error condition and its 8-digit number that help you determine the actual error condition.
If a message is listed below, but has no articles or explanation (nothing but its number and name), post a request on the AumHa Forums (http://forum.aumha.org/) asking about it. STOP messages of this type are rare, obscure, and usually only of interest to programmers debugging their code. Real-life scenarios of a computer user encountering them are unlikely, so I’ve made it a lower priority to document them here; but we’ll be happy to address this in the Forum (which also will tip me off that I should add more to this present page).

General Troubleshooting of STOP Messages

If you can’t find a specific reference to your problem, running through the following checklist stands a good chance of resolving the problem for you. This checklist is also usually the best approach to troubleshooting some specific Stop messages, such as 0x0A (http://www.aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php#0x0a) and 0x50 (http://www.aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php#0x50).

Examine the “System” and “Application” logs in Event Viewer for other recent errors that might give further clues. To do this, launch EventVwr.msc from a Run box; or open “Administrative Tools” in the Control Panel then launch Event Viewer.
If you’ve recently added new hardware, remove it and retest.
Run hardware diagnostics supplied by the manufacturer.
Make sure device drivers and system BIOS are up-to-date.
However, if you’ve installed new drivers just before the problem appeared, try rolling them back to the older ones.
Open the box and make sure all hardware is correctly installed, well seated, and solidly connected.
Confirm that all of your hardware is on the Hardware Compatibility List. (http://www.microsoft.com/hcl/default.asp) If some of it isn’t, then pay particular attention to the non-HCL hardware in your troubleshooting.
Check for viruses.
Investigate recently added software.
Examine (and try disabling) BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing.NOTE: When a STOP message occurs, Windows can create a debug file for very detailed analysis. To do this, it needs a workspace equal to the amount of physical RAM you have installed. If you resize your Win XP pagefile minimum to less than the size of your physical RAM, you will get an advisory message that your system may not be able to create a debugging information file if a STOP error occurs. My advice is to go ahead with this change if you want, but simply remember the limitation so that you can change it back if you need to troubleshoot STOP messages. Some general troubleshooting principles are suggested in the Resource Kit for approaching STOP messages overall.

Generally, use the General Troubleshooting of STOP Messages (http://www.aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php#general) checklist above to troubleshoot this problem. A specific problem is known to exist with Win XP SP2 and Server 2003 in combination with certain antivirus programs, firewalls, and similar software; see the article linked below for details and current status of a fix from Microsoft.

You receive the Stop error “Stop 0x05 (INVALID_PROCESS_ATTACH_ATTEMPT)” in Win XP SP2 or Server 2003 (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=887742&sd=RMVP) {KB 887742} Win XP SP2 (all subversions); Server 2003; Tablet PC Edition 20050x00000006: INVALID_PROCESS_DETACH_ATTEMPT MSDN article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/w2kmsgs/1122.asp)

Typically due to a bad driver, or faulty or incompatible hardware or software. Use the General Troubleshooting of STOP Messages (http://www.aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php#general) checklist above. Technically, this error condition means that a kernel-mode process or driver tried to access a memory location to which it did not have permission, or at a kernel Interrupt ReQuest Level (IRQL) that was too high. (A kernel-mode process can access only other processes that have an IRQL lower than, or equal to, its own.)

The Windows kernel detected an illegal or unknown processor instruction. A Stop 0x1E condition can be caused by invalid memory and access violations similar to those that generate Stop 0xA (http://www.aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php#0x0a) errors. This default Windows error handler typically intercepts these problems if error-handling routines are not present in the code itself.

A problem occurred within a read or write to a FAT16 or FAT32 file system drive. There may be a physical problem with the disk, or an Interrupt Request Packet (IRP) may be corrupted. Other common causes include heavy hard drive fragmentation, heavy file I/O, problems with some types of drive-mirroring software, or some antivirus software. I suggest running ChkDsk or ScanDisk as a first step; then disable all file system filters such as virus scanners, firewall software, or backup utilities. Check the file properties of FASTFAT.SYS to ensure it matches the current OS or SP version. Update all disk, tape backup, CD-ROM, or removable device drivers to the most current versions.

This indicates a system memory parity error, typically caused by failed or defective RAM (including motherboard, Level 2 cache, or video memory), incompatible or mismatched memory hardware, or when a device driver attempts to access an address in the 0x8xxxxxxx range that does not exist (does not map to a physical address). It also can indicate hard disk damage caused by viruses or other problems.

The Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and the kernel type for the computer do not match. This most often occurs when ACPI firmware settings are changed. For example, you might install Win XP on an x86-based computer with the firmware ACPI enable option enabled and later decide to disable it. This error can also result when mismatched single and multi-processor configuration files are copied to the system.

One of three types of problems occurred in kernel-mode: (1) Hardware failures. (2) Software problems. (3) A bound trap (i.e., a condition that the kernel is not allowed to have or intercept). Hardware failures are the most common cause (many dozen KB articles exist for this error referencing specific hardware failures) and, of these, memory hardware failures are the most common.

This general indication of a hardware failure is often quite difficult to pin down. Follow usual hardware troubleshooting protocols, in particular: Roll-back any recent hardware or driver changes; ensure that RAM sticks are matched and undamaged; check for viruses or hard drive damage; run ChkDsk to identify file system problems; ensure that all connections are sound inside the computer and all cards well-seated. In tough cases you may need to consult a professional shop for hardware diagnosis and repair.

This is a hardware issue: an unrecoverable hardware error has occurred. The parameters have different meanings depending on what type of CPU you have but, while diagnostic, rarely lead to a clear solution. Most commonly it results from overheating, from failed hardware (RAM, CPU, hardware bus, power supply, etc.), or from pushing hardware beyond its capabilities (e.g., overclocking a CPU).

A Windows shutdown failed due to lack of memory. Two avenues of troubleshooting: Treat it as any other “out of memory” problem and try to discover why virtual memory wasn’t able to support the system needs, and/or investigate whether a program (or, sometimes, a driver) is refusing to terminate and thus continuing to demand more memory pages that it is possible to provide.

One of the many processes or threads crucial to system operation has unexpectedly exited or been terminated. As a result, the system can no longer function. Specific causes are many, and often best resolved by a careful history of the problem and the circumstances of the error message. One user, who experienced this on return from Standby mode on Win XP SP2, found the cause was that Windows was installed on a slave drive; compare KB 330100 (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;330100).

This occurs when Windows switches into kernel mode and a user-mode subsystem, such as Winlogon or the Client Server Runtime Subsystem (CSRSS), is compromised and security can no longer be guaranteed. Because Win XP can’t run without Winlogon or CSRSS, this is one of the few situations where the failure of a user-mode service can cause the system to stop responding.

PFN_LIST_CORRUPT means that the system went to swap memory between the RAM and the VRAM on the hard drive, and couldn't.
Either:
  • Pagefile.sys is not properly addressed.. did you change it's location in the registry?
  • HDD Corruption -- The bad sector is located inside the pagefile.sys (although usually this would just cause a hang)
  • BAD RAM -- (usually would give you a Page Fault Error instead

Does that mean if I change my memory, i should also upgrade my power supply to prevent from happening again?

check your CPU heatsink for proper thermal contact.

Heatsink compound WON'T fix all "blue screen" crashes...
Most PFN_LIST_CORRUPT problems are related to memory modules issues - bad, not-seated properly, etc. The first thing to try is to re-seat each of your memory sticks and see if that fixes the problem.
So, if re-seating doesn't work, like someone mentioned earlier, get a memchecker and put it on a bootable floppy or CD and use it. Better yet, if you've upgraded your memory and still have your old sticks (or have access to to some that you know are correct for your PC), replace them and see if that corrects the problem.
If this doesn't pan out then you can move to the less probable scenarios like CPU overheating, power supply issues, BIOS-upgrades, etc.

90% of the time this message does not mean your ram itself is bad. A program using improper mdls could also cause this same issue. as well as hitting the reset button can cause this issue because the pfn (Page Frame Database) also called Page Frame Number list hence the PFN part is not flushed out. Drivers can also cause this problem by writing to memory areas they sholdn't write to. Don't be so quick to chalk it up as bad ram. run a memory test if its bad fine otherwise try disabling drivers one by one (sound drivers do this a LOT) till you find your culprit

The Nvdia display driver is the problem, if I try to change my screen resolution (after a new installation with nvidia driver), my system crashed.

What is "MDLs"? I have this blue screen of death in Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit

MDLs are a programming api for programs to lock certain areas of memory so another program cannot use it. its used in multi-threaded programs so that they have exclusive access to an area of memory and sometimes things lock an area used by another program instead of its own area and that causes windows to just shutsdown to stop the intruder from doing something it shouldn't do.
Yes, bad memory CAN cause it, but 90% of the time its a bad driver (or badly written one) Just replaced a sound card on my vista machine 2 months ago that was causing the PFN_LIST_CORRUPT message and no longer get it. If i put the old sound card in, I get the message again. (turns out the sound card does not have 100% vista compatible drivers)
