I have a Dell Latitude D410. Running Windows XP. I am receiving the STOP: 0x000000ED (0X899CF030,0XC0000185,0X00000000,0X00000000) Blue screen.
Initially, I tried everything specified with the Microsoft KB articles. At this time, I was able to boot into the general safemode. I pulled the hard drive and was able to run chkdsk on it- it noted that it had fixed some errors, but I was still unable to boot.
I put a brand new hard drive in the laptop. Windows XP installation worked up until the reboot, at which time the exact same error message came back up.
What I have tried (all since the new hard drive was installed):
chkdsk /R
All suggested solutions in
Microsoft KB articles
Reseating RAM
Opened laptop, reseated all
connectors, looked for signs of
damage (saw none)
Reset BIOS options to default
Ran the basic Dell diagnostics
I have looked at the current entry:How can I boot XP after receiving stop error 0x000000ED - I am currently in the process of downloading the Ultimate Boot CD to use as a test, but I am not holding out a lot of hope as I really doubt this brand new Hard Drive is bad.
Can anyone think of other areas I am missing?
Ran MEMTEST86+ V4.10 for 15 passes (overnight). 0 Errors
