I need to administer a new company. Right now, temporary, there is a clone

Server with a GIGABYTE Motherboard Model 8KNXP with a SCSI CARD Adaptec

ASC-29320 Ultra320 SCSI Controller.

Server is running Windows Server Standard 2003 SP 1.

 

Remote Desktop was disabled when I arrived.

Now I enabled and when accessing, the server gives me blue screen with error

msg "STOP: 0x0000004E PFN_LIST_CORRUPT"

KB291806 tells me it is related to hardware.

 

Does anyone know a way to fix this?

 

Thanks;

Start with the items suggested in that article (but I presume you did

these):

 

1. Run hardware diagnostic tools that are provided by your computer

manufacturer.

 

2. Disable all file system filter drivers, such as backup utilities,

virus scanners, or firewall software.

 

3.View the following Microsoft Web site to verify that the hardware and

the drivers for the hardware are compatible with Windows 2000:

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx

(http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx)

For information about the hardware on your computer, contact the

manufacturer.

 

4.If you receive this error message randomly, or when you try to start a

program, remove extra memory or have the random access memory (RAM) in your

computer tested. This behavior may occur if you have bad RAM.

 

(5) For more information about the parameters of the PFN_LIST_CORRUPT

function, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms793247.aspx

 

 

This last explains that this is typically going to be due to bad drivers --

and probably

not those built by Microsoft.

 

I would consider strongly looking at any "unusual" hardware and its drivers,

upgrading to the latest (production) versions of those drivers and perhaps

the latest (production) version of your motherboard or other

"BIOS/firmware".

 

Another possibility is to remove all non-essential drivers (virus scanners

and

backup might be included here) and either run without them or replace them

with drivers/services from other manufacturers.

 

You might spend on time looking especially at your VIDEO since it seems

related to Remote Desktop which gets involved with video drivers.

 

Also, consider upgrading to the LATEST Service Pack and all possible

HotFixes.

 

After that, I might also consider a REPAIR INSTALL using the latest (or

last Service Pack ready) OS Installation CDROM.

 

This last (Repair Install) has solve many problems for me and causes no

real problems other than the need to re-apply subsequent Service packs

and hotfixes after the Repair is complete.

 

After that you are pretty much left with removing EVERY hardware device

that is NOT on the "Hardware Compatibility List" (HCL.)
