[Fix] Windows blue screen after upgrade to XP SP3



Windows XP service pack 3 has been released for some times. But if you want to install it on your AMD based HP/Compaq computer, you probably will always faced the blue screen problem (BSoD, Blue Screen of Death).

HP had comes out with a solution. There are 5 steps to fix this problem:

1) Restart computer and press F8 key repeatedly until Windows Advanced Options Menu appears.
2) Choose Safe Mode.
3) Browse to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers.
4) Find a file named “intelppm.sys” and rename it to “XXXintelppm.syx“.
5) Restart.

The problem should be fixed and you will no longer get the same error message.
