[This entry was edited because I was ragging on the wrong update.]<\/i><\/p>\n

I mentioned<\/a> how my old system reboots right before showing a login prompt. It turns out my system was failing<\/i> at that point, and Windows was (stupidly) configured to reboot automatically upon a system failure.<\/p>\n

Hard to diagnose a problem when the system acts in denial. I’ve since disabled that option.<\/p>\n

After rolling back my Windows installation a few times, I determined it was one of the Windows updates that was causing the failure.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The update for KB835732<\/a> causes a stop error at address 0x8042A72A. To wit, the error reads:<\/p>\n

STOP: 0x0000001E (0xC0000005, 0x8042A72A, 0x00000000, 0x00000132)<\/p>\n

KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED<\/p>\n

Address 8042A72A base at 80400000, DateStamp 4047db83 – ntoskrl.exe<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I don’t know what any of that says, but a Google search revealed this udpate has caused quite a number of problems<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m inclined not to install any updates to Windows 2000, but at the same time, I would like a fully updated system. I may have to do what I did to determine the problem in the first place — install each update one-by-one.<\/p>\n

Everytime I repair Windows from the CD-ROM, it rolls back about 31 critical udpates.<\/p>\n

What a drag.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
