The “ATTEMPTED SWITCH FROM DPC” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error may appear when the computer abruptly shuts down during the initialization process for older versions of Windows, such as Windows Vista, XP, 2000, 7 and 8. This error is caused by a delayed procedure call (DPC) routine that attempted to perform an illegal operation. The DPC is triggered when the kernel detects a hung condition and makes a call to terminate or interrupt a software. It means that a yield, attach process, or a wait operation was executed from […]

The “AGP GART CORRUPTION” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error is an abrupt shutdown of the computer that results from a bug or an improper memory access by the device driver that utilizes the Direct Memory Access (DMA). This BSOD error means that the GART (Graphics Apperture Remapping Table) has been corrupted, resulting in the shutdown of the computer to prevent data loss. This BSOD error is often due to incompatibilities with installed device drivers and malfunctioning hardware, particularly recently installed devices before the error occurred. This BSOD error is […]

The “AGP INTERNAL”BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error appears on the computer screen when the Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) detects a problem with an installed video device or driver. The AGP functions as a channel that attaches the motherboard of the computer to the installed video card, and helps to accelerate 3D video graphics. The computer implements the automatic shutdown to prevent the loss of important data. This BSOD error is usually associated with drivers that are outdated, corrupted, or incompatible with the installed video adapter. It is also caused […]

The “BOOTING IN SAFEMODE NETWORK” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error may appear during the initialization process for Windows XP, Vista, 2000, 2008, and Windows 7 and 8. It means that the computer boots in the Safe Mode and with Network services, but many other services are unavailable. It shutdowns the system and forces a reboot to prevent damage and data loss. The BSOD error is usually caused by damaged or a corrupted files, such as damaged system files that result in startup errors. Corrupted system files result from the […]

The “AGP ILLEGALLY REPROGRAMMED” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error is an indication of the unauthorized reprogramming of the Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP), and usually appears when there is a bug in the installed driver for a video device. It causes the computer to shutdown automatically, which results in the loss of unsaved data. The appearance of this BSOD error may also be due to a corrupted or outdated driver, or the installation of a driver that is incompatible with the system. It may also be due to the installation […]

The “ASSIGN DRIVE LETTERS FAILED” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error appears on the screen during the initialization process for Windows and is caused by the failure of the system to assign a drive letter. The process of assigning the drive letter is implemented in Windows to identify partitions and logical disk drives in the root file system. This BSOD error is usually associated with a faulty device driver for a recently installed device. This BSOD error is also known as “ASSIGN_DRIVE_LETTERS_FAILED” and “Windows STOP 0x00000072“. It displays an error […]

The “APC INDEX MISMATCH” BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) error appears on the screen during the initialization process for Windows when there is a mismatched thread between the APC (Asynchronous Procedure Calls) index and a device driver that operates in the kernel mode of the system. It is triggered by events that include the improper shutdown of the computer, incomplete installation or uninstallation of a program, recovery from a virus attack, and corruption of the system memory that results in the deletion of entries in the Windows system files. The […]
