Read write access problem
Windows Vista Premium. AMD 64 5000, 2.0Gb DDR2, Hitachi 400Gb.
Every time the PC boots, it blue screens with the error code 0x000000BE, and the error message "An attempt was made to write to read only memory".
It does this is normal mode, safe mode, and system repair.
Have tested memory, HDD, mobo etc and all are OK. In fact, an installation onto a new HDD went fine with the same hardware.
I have removed the HDD and scanned for viruses etc.
I cannot seem to get round this issue at all. Any ideas?
If this were XP, I would replace the usual files (default, sam, security, software and system) from a restore snapshot. Is there a similar method for Vista?
