Rdbss.sys BSOD
Hi all, I'm suffering of an annoying problem on Windows XP Sp2, always up-to-date with security patches, firewalled and virus proteted by AVG (always updated as well). Briefly, when my USB ADSL connection is on (no matter whether I've been working or not with internet applications), the PC hangs in an odd way: everything *looks* normal, but the connection isn't working anymore and when I try to switch the connection off, I realize that the whole usb I/O isn't working anymore. I can open some O.S. forms (i.e. control panel, etc.), but not others (i.e. task manager). If I try to run other applications a message similar to the following appears: "cannot find '/idlist,:xxxx:yyyy,'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again" Poking around the event viewer I can find some errors thrown by "svr", ID 2019. But as long as I switch off that svr service, the problem remains, so it's likely to be a consequence rather than a cause. However, when I try to restart the system, I receive a BSOD with 0x00000D4 stop code, indicating rdbss.sys as the culprit. What I already did: => I checked that no hw/sw installation have been carried out recently => I switched off all the services that aren't microsoft using start->run->msconfig->services->hide all MS Services->disable all => I extracted the original rdbss.sys from the WinXP-SP2 original CD => I checked for viruses with AVG, apparently no problem Now that the obvious things didn't work, I'm pretty puzzled about how to proceed. Any suggestion? -- Ciao, | R: Perche' incasina l'ordine con cui si legge un messaggio Speck | D: Perche' quotare sotto da' cosi' fastidio? | R: Quotare sotto. | D: Qual e' la cosa piu' seccante su usenet e in e-mail? |

Re: Rdbss.sys BSOD
BSOD's in XP are hardware/driver related. I would suspect a corrupt USB driver. Go to Start/Run, and type DEVMGMT.MSC , highlight the USB Root Hub device(s), Action menu, "Uninstall", then restart Windows, to find the device drivers again automatically. -- Was this helpful?

Re: Rdbss.sys BSOD The version of rdbss.sys on my computer is 5.1.2600.2902, which came post SP2. Have you installed available updates? Mine came with KB914389 in June 2006. -- Hope this helps.

"Gerry" <gerry@nospam.com>: > >The version of rdbss.sys on my computer is 5.1.2600.2902, which came >post SP2. Yes, build 2902 was the one I had. I guessed that it could be somehow corrupted and I extracted the SP2 original one, but nothing changed. I'm going to restore the build 2902, as it seems clear there's no file corruption. -- Ciao, | R: Perche' incasina l'ordine con cui si legge un messaggio Speck | D: Perche' quotare sotto da' cosi' fastidio? | R: Quotare sotto. | D: Qual e' la cosa piu' seccante su usenet e in e-mail? |

Following Mark's advice, I uninstalled and then reinstalled the usb drivers, but it didn't work. I suspected RAM chip failure, but Memtest, run for more than 10 hours, didn't report any problem. I've then discovered a very interesting thing: the problem comes even if I don't do absolutely nothing with the PC after boot. For a strange case, I switched on and I had to go for a while, so WinXP was waiting for the user password. After one hour, I wasn't able to log on anymore with the message: The application failed to initialize properly (0xaddress ). Click on OK to terminate the application Unfortunately, there's no indication about which application failed. -- Ciao, | R: Perche' incasina l'ordine con cui si legge un messaggio Speck | D: Perche' quotare sotto da' cosi' fastidio? | R: Quotare sotto. | D: Qual e' la cosa piu' seccante su usenet e in e-mail? |

Here's the end of the story: - I started the PC with another OS not up-to-date (XP Home) on another partition and realized that the failure was triggered exactly in the same way, basically doing nothing. - Excluded an OS-related issue (drivers, configuration, recent conflicts, etc.) I looked to the hardware. First of all I disconnected the usb DSL modem, as the main symptom was an ADSL line down after 30-60 minutes. The PC started to work fine immediately. - changed the modem with another, everything works. P.S. Meanwhile I discovered that one 200GB HD full of data is on the verge to fail, although no clear symptoms at all. And it's still under warranty... :) -- Ciao, | R: Perche' incasina l'ordine con cui si legge un messaggio Speck | D: Perche' quotare sotto da' cosi' fastidio? | R: Quotare sotto. | D: Qual e' la cosa piu' seccante su usenet e in e-mail? |

bumped because I have a problem with the same symptoms. I have an airlink101 router, I use it as a WAP, and sometimes when it goes down, I have these issues too. Usually I'm not around when it goes down, but once every few days, I have this issue. This has happened at home (ADSL) and school (t3) Is replacing the modem really a fix? I could probably do the same with my router, no hassle, but there's obviously a bug here we're avoiding by completely avoiding the scenario. |

Re: Rdbss.sys BSOD
Does the error occur during or after the boot process? Does the error occur in safe mode? Can you please post a copy of the Stop Error Report? Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced, Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before Automatically Restart. Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure. Check for variants of the Stop Error message. -- Hope this helps.

-.- mmm, please refer to op. I did the same troubleshooting after I read his post just to make sure we had a similar problem. To clarify, though: --BSOD happens when I try to shut down. I can boot back up fine from off. -- I have not done the RAM or USB tests in the follow-up posts. -- I don't auto-restart on the BSOD, but I've just been too lazy to make sure we have the same stop code. Most of the time, I don't even bother getting the BSOD, I just power off knowing it'll be there. I'll tell you what it is when my computer bugs out and I can trigger the BSOD. I'm letting the Intel proset/wireless program handle my connection now, though, so that might already be a fix. |
