Hey all ,

I am not a novice when it comes to PC issues, however.. I cant seem to nip this problem in the bud.

I got a friend, broke as hell, so i built him a PC outta spare parts.

Now the PC boots up and installs everything fine.. all is good.

He takes it home and it works fine.... for about 1-1/2 months, then whenever he tries to boot up, it shows the loading screen, then a quick BSOD and an immediate reboot. endless loop.

Unable to boot into safe mode etc... when I try to boot with logging enabled.. it hangs at Mup.sys.... Any idea what that is .?

I can reinstall everything and all works great for about 1 1/2 months.


He is not on-line, so isnt downloading any thing, and when I take out his HD and put it in my comp to scan... there are no problems found on disk except for the Mup.sys file being horked.

scratching my head on this one .. as I have re-formatted and re-installed 3 times now... and each time same thing happens... after 1 1/2 months of use.. blammo.


thanx :)





Ps. all the components are good, and have been tested. everything works.
 
Did some extensive searching.... found that it could be one of 2 things...

Mup.sys is part of the networking thingy .. so either the NIC card is horked and causing the hang, or the file got corrputed somehow. Its an old NIC so I prolly should replace it anyway... will give that a whirl..


If anyone has any info / advice feel free to post.

thx

    Guys just a heads up I am going to be shutting the site down soon. I am just waiting on the NUON people to decide whether they want to transfer forum data and keep the discord. My email is [email protected] for anyone that wants to keep in touch and I have a facebook too. I will make an official post later. Love you guys and will miss everyone!

    Oh no - please don't lose the Nuon content

    Someone email AtariAge and see if they want me to transfer the forum data over to it
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Could probably keep NUON stuff around here if we wanted.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm what to do about the World Editor site though?
  • Stephen Stephen:
    I'd rather personally just own a backup of the Nuon data than see it go to AtariAge honestly. If it gets enshittified as per usual, or if some of the "regular" Jaguar folks get there, it's not gonna be fun
  • The Helper The Helper:
    There will be a github of the forum data so the NUON Forum Data I guess would be available there
  • The Helper The Helper:
    World Editor is technically Ryoko stuff not mine you guys can keep that I am not in that even
  • jonas jonas:
    :( end of an era :(
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Dont think of it as an end jonas - think of it as a beginning, because really my friend that is what it is.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Also, anyone who is reading this and is sad - don't be, turn off the Internet, step away from the box - enjoy your life - there is so much more out there for you than there is here for you.
