Device driver – a software program installed on your system to communicate the higher-level computer programs to the system hardware – can result into a STOP error message if it is virus infected or incompatible with your system. A STOP error message literary means that your computer comes to a halt and all the data stored in the hard drive is inaccessible. To overcome the hazards created by STOP error message, an ideal solution is to restore the data from an updated backup. However, in case of absence of an updated backup, you will need to use effective File Recovery software that can comprehensively recover all the data from your hard drive.
Consider a practical scenario, where you receive the below error message when you attempt to start your system:
“STOP: 0x00000068 (parameter1, parameter 2, parameter 3, parameter 4) FILE_INITIALIZATION_FAILED”
Four parameters in the above error message differ with your computer’s configuration.
Your hard drive data becomes inaccessible after the above error message appears. In addition, the above STOP error message reappears each time you attempt to boot your system. The above error message primarily occurs during phase 4 of Windows startup.
Cause:
The above error message primarily occurs due to installation of faulty or incompatible device driver.
Resolution:
For complete and systematic resolution of the above error message, you will need to follow the below measures:
You will need to reboot your system after removing the new installed software.
Startup your computer system by selecting Last Known Good Configuration option.
If the problem persists, use Emergency Repair Disk
If the above three measures fail to resolve the error message, the best option is to reinstall Windows. A clean reinstall of Windows will erase all the formally saved data on the hard drive partition. To recover lost data in such situations, you will need to use advanced
partition recovery software. Such Partition Recovery utilities employ advanced scanning methods to completely scan and recover data from hard drive. Built with highly interactive user interface, the software is easy to understand and implement.
