Blue Screen 0x0000006B - PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED

Hi,

You can delete the .tmp files since they are only "temporarty" anyway.

Be sure to do the RESEAT.

References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

See if these help - boot with a Windows disk (repair disk ok) and issue these from the Command

Prompt and hit ENTER after each.

Setup/Setting (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 as you boot so watch the screen - set to CD/DVD drive first

in the boot order - remember to set back when done. (Some use F12 or other keys for a one time

boot order change.)

If those help then run StartUp Repair THREE times - run once and then reboot and run again- repeat. (Use a Windows 7 disk.)

Using EasyBCD often works when other methods do not. <-- if Bootrec did not help use this.

Okay, I haven't reseated yet, but here are some things I think you should know.

• I ran chkdsk /r, it completed successfully and it said it repaired some errors but I still can't boot into Windows.
• The night before this problem occurred, there was a big storm, BUT I had unplugged my computer after it shut off and the plug is in a surge protector.
• I remember someone had said to delete the files in the catroot folders that had tmp***.tmp or something like that. Could that be the problem?

Hi,

Remove ALL power. Then carefully remove the cards one at time and put them

back in their slots. Do the same for the memory and then the cables. A loose or

corroded connection point can cause strange issues.

How do I reseat?

Hi,

If the machine you are trying to fix also the same Windows 7 64 bit OS? If not you need to use

the version it is. So repeat with the correct version.

If it is the same the double check all the connections and cables. Remove ALL power then reseat

the cards, memory, and cables (on both ends when possible).

===================================================

Try this (Safe Mode with Networking if needed - repeatedly tap F8 as you boot).

Start - type in the Search box -> CMD       find at top then Right Click on and RUN AS ADMIN.

Then copy and paste these and run one at a time :

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealthDism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealthDism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealthRob - SpiritX
