Windows XP NTFS Sys Blue Screen Crashes

See more in Software

Picture the usual day – you’re home working on your PC and then out of nowhere up pops an NTFS.Sys Blue Screen. You panic seeing this error message for the first time. You notice that this isn’t like other error messages that you usually experience. The opportunity to acknowledge the error and go back to whatever you were doing doesn’t exist. Unsurprisingly you regret not having saved your work.

Before you have time to write down the entire message the system reboots. From that moment, you anxiously anticipate another blue screen error occurrence. Unfortunately it happens just a few hours later. This time you manage to write down the rest of the message. Not knowing what on earth the error code means, you start your search on the Net for any help.

And so you start the merry-go-round of looking for and trying out different possible fixes. Don’t throw in the towel just yet though as there is probably a fix out there somewhere. But unless you’re lucky and you really know what you’re doing, the solution will not come easily. Even with the error message in hand, you will find that it gives little information on exactly how to fix the BSOD.

Like most individuals, I find this really irritating to say the least. It’s like getting a replacement for a broken down photocopier but given a manual in a different language. Ok, it might be a little helpful, but just a little. Furthermore, this doesn’t really address the fact that many error messages have a variety of causes and fixes. The difference between getting an ati2dvag blue screen and a Mup Sys Blue Screen is a lot more problems.

A number of issues cause an Mup.sys blue screen, including hardware faults, applications that have been poorly removed, faulty BIOS settings and corrupt device drivers. To fix mup.sys errors you might have to attempt a number of possible fixes before you find the answer. It’s a good idea to search for the error message online since there’s a chance that someone has already fixed the same problem and posted their fix on a website.

First of all you should run some simple checks before attempting fixes that may need a little more expertise. You may be fortunate enough to six your computer with these simple methods. Usually you will not have to go as far as opening your PC up or doing a full system restore. Try the following simple steps;

-If you’ve made any changes recently, try undoing them.
-You might want to try uninstalling newly added hardware.
-Clean out your registry of faulty or redundant entries.
-Check for any driver updates.
-Update your Service Pack.
-Run a complete scan on your computer with a good antivirus program.

A quick tip; make sure you disable Windows automatic restart function. First go to Control Panel and access System; click on the Advanced tab located in System Properties; then uncheck the Automatically Restart box in Startup and Recovery. Now you will be able to write down the blue screen message without it restarting on you midway.
