Win10 pro 64 - Bluescreen loop
« on: June 18, 2017, 04:07:17 PM »
Hello,
today I tried installing my new HTC Vive HMD. First, software installation went fine but as I plugged in the USB and HDMI connectors of the Vive linkbox into the flightsim-pc ..... I got a bad beeping tone and the computer crashed with a blue screen.

Bluescreen says win10 cannot start because of system thread exception not handled.
Since then each starting the pc ends in this bluescreen Message.

I can start with the recovery cd. But the win repair function doesn't work.
It seems like windows cannot be found and the bootmanager don't work.....
Does anybody know a solution for this other than a complete reinstall of windows?

Thank you in advance..  any help is apprechiated.

Hi Klaus,
     Sorry to hear you are having system trouble.  I don't know how that could be related to plugging your device, but who knows?  I haven't experienced this issue, and glad I haven't!  You would get better help on an HTC Vive forum rather than here.  There are very few of us that are VR'ing here, I think.  :-\

Edit:  Have you checked in your BIOS for your Boot sequence?  Make sure it points to your boot drive.  :-\

I've had a similar experience with Win7. The master boot record was damaged and I was able to fix it using a repair utility. Do a Google search for Win 10 boot sector repair. Good luck. Problems like this really stink, and the question is why would installing that software blow up the MBR? Coincidence??

Well,
honestly speaking I have no idea why this happened.... I didn't expect installing the device as I started. I hoped to have a nice sunday preparing the Vive and discovering VR in flight simulation.... :-[

Yes, I checked BIOS and boot sequence is set correct.

Thank you, Steve.
I'll try getting a repair utility. I'll check this out.
I really have no idea why this happened. Never had any problems before connecting devices to my pc.....coincidence, yes maybe it is.

Disconnect one of the drives and see if you can connect, at the same time reseat all your ram and video cards

     I would never plug/unplug any cables from my video card while the PC is running.   :o ;)

Try this and you should be able to change your drive designations. It boots a into a Linux environment, doesn't matter if Windows is unbootable, and I've used this in the past to recover from crazy situations.

Not sure anyone is suggesting you should. Nor would I reseat the ram but I give people credit for a bit of knowledge and assume they know where the on / off switch is and would use it.

Sorry Lipra,
     I was not referring to your comment.  I was thinking about Klaus' statement

and got the impression that he plugged in the HDMI cable while the PC was running.  I've had bad experiences when messing with the video cables while the system is on, so I advised against it as a general rule.  ;)

No problem Jeff.  I all ways try and power down / up as a matter of course 45 years repairing telephone exchanges teaches you very quickly. I have found that to check cables and boards first can save a lot of time even if they look ok. I would also be hesitant to plug that box back in without checking with the manufacture that its not faulty.

Corbu1.

Can you actually read any data from either drive from the repair disk.

 There is also a dos command that allows you to repair the mbr if that is corrupt. when I had a similar problem it did not work and I ended up changing the faulty disc drive, google it for information.

 Do you have an old disk with a working operating system you could put in to check the rest of the system.

Lipra,
I can read the drives from DOS command with the repair cd. But repairing the mbr didn't work....
All repair functions didn't work.

Well,
Disconnecting the drives didn't work, too.
I got the correct drive name for the C: drive but windows didn't start.
Also all repairs of mbr failed.

I guess, next try is a complete reinstall of windows .... :o :(
