How-To: Fix STOP 0x0000007B on installations

Mike Hudson 2 Comments

Recently I was given a Dell to fix. The Dell wouldn’t boot into Windows with ‘Bad_Pool_Caller’. A few hours of head scratching and data backups later. I decided a reinstallation was the only option. So I blew the dust of my XP Pro CD, only to be greeted with another ‘stop’ error on installation! STOP 0x0000007B(0xF78DA63C,0x0000034,0X x0000000,0x0000000

However, this was quite an easy one to fix.

In the Bios there is an option for either RAID Auto/AHCI or RAID Auto/ATA, the setup didn’t seem to like the AHCI option and required switching to ATA before it would work!

1. On start up (Dell logo), press F2 to enter BIOS

2. Expand the “Drives” section

3. Go to “SATA Operation”

4. Change this from “RAID Auto/AHCI” to “RAID Auto/ATA”

SuSe 11.1 – Fatal Server Error: No Screens Found – FIXED

Recently my SuSe 11.1 install stopped booting, after further investigation I found the following error in the log files: Fatal Server Error: No Screens Found after some hunting around the net, and many failed tests. I finally managed to resolve the issue..

If you are suffering from the same problem, try:
Log in as rootType “sax2 -m 0=vesa”

This should load the vesa driver.

Now reboot and you should find you will at least get your GUI back.Once logged back on, you may then want to adjust your display driver etc.
