OKLo and behold, I click OK and it doesnt't terminate. i click again--still nothing. i press Ctrl+Alt=Delete, but the task manager doesn't work. I hit Escape--that doesn't work. so I decided to turn the computer off. that just make everything worst. the computer stalls or freezes or whatever you call it. the only left for me to do is to unplug but i know that not a good thing to do.

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 What application is it that fails to initialize? Can you get any more information from Event Viewer?Please note that the error code is 0xc000012d - these are zeroes, not 'O's. With the correct error code you can find many information on Google, e.g. common causes for this message:- Old or faulty graphics driver - check with DriverMax if there is a newer driver available.- Faulty RAM - see this article how to test your RAM: http://www.zdnet.com.au/reviews/hardware/components/soa/Tech-Guide-How-to-diagnose-faulty-RAM/0,139023397,139145020,00.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
