General Troubleshooting
Before you troubleshoot a "Stop 0x0000007B" error message, read this whole article to determine if any of the specific issues that are listed in the following sections apply to you. If not, use the following general troubleshooting steps:
If you receive one of the error messages that are listed in this article while you are installing Windows XP, update your computer's BIOS, obtain Windows XP drivers for your hard disk controller from the manufacturer of your computer, system board, or hard disk controller, or do both. For information about updating your computer's BIOS or obtaining Windows XP drivers, contact your computer manufacturer. For additional information about the availability of drivers, see the Device Driver Issues section in this article.
NOTE: If Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 or Microsoft Windows 2000 was installed previously on a mirrored boot partition, see the Other Issues section in this article.
Use the Last Known Good Configuration feature. This may resolve the problem if you recently installed an incompatible device driver for your boot controller.

Boot-Sector Viruses
You may receive a "Stop 0x0000007B" error message if your computer is infected with a boot-sector virus. Check your computer for viruses. If you find a virus, also check any floppy disks for viruses before you use them again.
Microsoft does not provide software that can detect or remove computer viruses. If you suspect or confirm that your computer is infected with a virus, obtain current antivirus software. For a list of antivirus software manufacturers, click the following article number to see the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
49500 List of Antivirus Software Vendors
NOTE: You may have to use more than one brand of virus-detection software to detect and remove various viruses.
IMPORTANT: If your computer has been infected, it may be open to additional forms of attack. Microsoft recommends that you rebuild infected Internet-facing servers (servers that function without a firewall or other protection) by following the guidelines that are published on the CERT Web site. It is also a good idea to rebuild any other computers that are at risk because of their proximity to infected computers before you put them back in service.
If a virus has infected your Windows XP-based computer and a virus-detection program cannot remove the virus and repair the system, you must repartition and format your hard disk and reinstall Windows XP.

Device Driver Issues
You may receive a "Stop 0x0000007B" error message if a device driver that your computer's boot controller requires is not configured to start during the startup process or is corrupted, or if information in the Windows XP registry about which device drivers load during the startup process is corrupted.
Windows XP requires a miniport driver to communicate with the hard disk controller that is used to start your computer. If Windows XP does not supply a device driver for your controller or is using a corrupted or incompatible driver, you must replace the driver with a valid copy that is compatible with your controller and Windows XP.
During the first phase of the Windows XP installation, Setup displays the following message at the bottom of the screen:
Press F6 if you need to install a third-party SCSI or RAID driver.
Press F6 and then follow the instructions to install a mass-storage device driver from your Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). For additional information about using F6 to load an OEM device driver to support,, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
314859 Limited OEM Driver Support Is Available with F6 During Windows XP Setup
To determine if your hard disk controller is compatible with Windows XP and to obtain information about drivers that are included on the Windows XP CD-ROM or are available for downloading, see the latest Windows XP Hardware Compatibility List (HCL). For additional information about the latest Windows XP HCL, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
314062 The Latest Windows XP Hardware Compatibility List
If your hard disk controller is not listed on the HCL, contact the manufacturer of your computer, system board, or hard disk controller for information about the availability of a driver. Microsoft does not guarantee that a resolution is available for non-HCL equipment. For additional information, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
315239 Microsoft Support Policy for Hardware That Does Not Appear on the Windows HCL
If the System hive in the Windows XP registry is corrupted, Windows XP may not be able to load the miniport device driver that is the boot controller requires. To resolve this issue, restore a registry backup. For additional information about restoring a registry backup, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Hardware Issues
You may receive a "Stop 0x0000007B" error message if there is a resource conflict between the boot controller and another controller, or between SCSI devices, or if drive translation is not being performed or was changed. To troubleshoot this issue:
If an IRQ or I/O port address conflict exists between the boot controller and another controller, Windows XP either stops responding (hangs) or displays a "Stop 0x0000007B" error message. If you recently added new hardware, remove the new hardware or reconfigure it so that it does not conflict with the resources of any other installed controllers.
If you are using a SCSI hard disk, check the SCSI chain for correct termination. Remove any unused SCSI devices, or make sure that each SCSI ID is unique.
Make sure that drive translation is turned on (if required) and has not been changed. For example, if you recently switched controllers, this issue can occur.For additional information about this issue, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Other Issues
Other potential causes of a "Stop 0x0000007B" error message include:
The boot volume is corrupted and cannot be mounted by Windows XP. If the file system is corrupted and Windows XP cannot mount the boot volume during the startup process, move the drive to another computer that is running Windows XP and run the chkdsk command on that drive. Or, try to create a parallel installation of Windows XP on the drive in a separate folder. The Windows XP Setup program checks the integrity of the volume before copying files and may fix some problems.
You are installing on a mirrored boot partition that was created by Windows NT 4.0. Windows XP does not support Windows NT 4.0 Ftdisk volume sets. If you are running Windows 2000, you must convert all Ftdisk volume sets to dynamic volumes before you upgrade to Windows XP. If you are running Windows NT 4.0, break any mirrors and back up all of the data on the stripe, the RAID5, or the extended volume sets before you upgrade to Windows XP. Ftdisk sets might not be accessible after the upgrade.
