AMDAGP.SYS Complete System Lock On Boot!
Hewlett Packard 360n
AMD Athalon XP 1900MHz
Windows XP
Now here's the problem...
One day the machine refused to boot. Testing all methods of booting (none working) it was determined the system locks upon loading the file AMDAGP.SYS. With no alternative I attempted a non-destructive recovery via F10. This had no effect at "recovering the system" and the same problem persisted... so I then attempted a destructive recovery, with a full recovery of the hidden partion, using the 7 CD XP Home Edition recovery set I got from HP. Once again this did nothing!
So after a complete format, a rewrite of the recovery partition, and a complete re-installion/recovery of XP the system is still completely in accessable! What's the deal here! This machine is only 6 months old...
Anyone know how I can fix this problem? Newsgroups lead me to believe the XP installation CD could be used to fix this issue. However HP refuses to send me one and only offered the recovery CD set. What am I supposed to do! HELP!

Re: AMDAGP.SYS Complete System Lock On Boot!
There are a ton of posts with people on multiple platforms all with the same issue. Perform a google search on your AMDAGP.sys under groups
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=AMDAGP.SYS&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&start=10&sa=N
and you'll find 133 posts on this.. All of them seem to indicate attempting to boot into safe mode to verify hardware.
Here is one of the results.
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=%23kct%23WMuBHA.1892%40tkmsftngp03&rnum=11&prev=/groups%3Fq%3DAMDAGP.SYS%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26start%3D10%26sa%3DN
or http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=9b3801c251aa%242d354070%2436ef2ecf%40tkmsftngxa12&rnum=23&prev=/groups%3Fq%3DAMDAGP.SYS%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26start%3D20%26sa%3DN
I don't think a different version of XP will resolve the issue from HP.. ?? There isn't much rhyme or reason with any of these posts.. I think you need to involve HP warranty support as well if you haven't already.
Good luck...

Re: AMDAGP.SYS Complete System Lock On Boot!
Anyways... looks like the PC is just going to be returned. I have already spent far too much time trying to fix the issue, and lost a good deal of data in the process. Good thing I had at least one backup (even if a bit old) of the more important files I was working on before the machine died.
