Apart from all other errors that Windows come across, STOP error ( also known as Blue Screen of Death) is the most confusing and frustrating error, which causes the system to become unbootable. It comes out of nowhere (usually at the time of startup or shutdown) and often leaves the computer users in a dizzy about the cause of this sudden error message. This error generates disastrous scenarios as it renders your hard drive data inaccessible. The only way to access the data left at that moment is to use a backup file to restore the data. However, if the backup is not available or gets corrupted, then you need to use a powerful file recovery application to recover your data completely. Just imagine a situation one day you tried to view your best friends picture saved on your desktop. But, while the system was trying to boot, suddenly the screen turned blue and a STOP error appears. You immediately power off the system and try to restart it again, but witness the same situation. The STOP error can be similar to any of the following: 0x00000001: APC_INDEX_MISMATCH 0x0000000A: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL 0x00000024: NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM. 0x0000005F: SECURITY_INITIALIZATION_FAILED. 0x00000005: INVALID_PROCESS_ATTACH_ATTEMPT. And the list goes on. The main consequence of a STOP error is that it halts the system's booting process and renders the hard drive data inaccessible. Cause: Generally, a STOP error message occurs due to hardware and software issues but the message that is displayed with the message may vary, thereby helping you determine the specific cause of the problem. But, one main cause of the STOP error is a fragmented or corrupted registry. Resolution: Try the following measures to solve the issue: Make sure that all hardware components are properly connected. Remove or disable any recently installed hardware or software. Update all your drivers and BIOS. Check the HAL (Hardware Compatibility List). Scan your system for virus or malware. Scan the registry for errors with the help of a registry repair tool. These aforementioned measures should help you in solving the issue in most cases. But, if the situation does not get any better even after using the above mentioned measures, then you should re-install the operating system. However, doing this will delete all the data from the primary partition, after which you can recover the data by using an efficient file recovery application. The software does a complete scan of your hard drive to provide comprehensive hard drive recovery by employing its complex scanning algorithms. Stellar Phoenix Windows Data Recovery Software is an efficient software that recovers all the lost or deleted information from the hard drive.
