This error is caused by the driver for the wireless card that is made by Broadcom. Take the card out and the computer should boot.

usually a BSOD is related to a driver problem. Try booting in safe mode (pressing F8 after turning on) and go to device manager and see if you have any problems showing.

so you need to reset cmos as memory modules must be out. is a virus instaled on mainboard so only way to recover control is these steps:
1st take the hd out.
2nd reset cmos
3rd take memory out
then put windows install cd and install as 1st time on computer, dont attemph to loading windows, or else you need to repeat-it again. then install laptop drivers, then test.

Windows blue screen errors are mostly hardware or driver related. Check the exact error message on the BSOD screen and also check the event log to see the error details.

Good luck..and if you have any questions about your armada just ask.. I have 5 of them.

Could be a stuck key somewhere, has anything been wasted on the keypad, tap the keys one by one to refresh is. Could also be that the keyboard is broken.
