How to troubleshoot a STOP 0x00000051 REGISTRY ERROR error message

How to troubleshoot a "STOP 0x00000051 REGISTRY ERROR" error message?

This issue can occur if there is a registry or Configuration Manager problem with your computer. The error message that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section of this article is a Windows 2000 Executive character-mode STOP error message (See: frequent symptoms of registry problems). An input/output (I/O) error may have occurred while the registry was trying to read one of the registry files. This issue may be caused by hardware or file system problems.



You may also receive this error message if a refresh operation does not work, which occurs when your computer encounters resource limits.

If you have a Emergency Repair Disk (ERD), it is recommended that you restore the registry to a known operating state.

If this is the first time that you have started the computer after you install new hardware, remove the hardware and start your computer again.

If you are installing Windows 2000 for the first time, verify that you have all of the Windows 2000 requirements, including the amount of required random access memory (RAM) and hard disk space to load the operating system.

If Windows 2000 is loaded and you have not installed new hardware, restart your computer with recovery options set to create a dump file. If you continue to receive the error message, select the Last Known Good option when you restart your computer. If there is no Last Known Good configuration option, use the ERD. If you do not have an ERD, contact your technical support group.
