SYMPTOMS
When you use an application to extend a partition on a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based computer, you may receive a Stop error message that is similar to the following:

A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this message appears again, follow these steps:

Disable or uninstall any anti virus, disc defragmentation or backup utilities. Check your hard drive configuration, and check for any updated drivers. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

Technical Information

Stop 0x00000024 (0x0019033c, 0xf016e7a0, 0xf016e49c, 0xe061dcdc)



CAUSE
This problem may occur if the application uses the following IOCTLS and FSCTLS control codes to extend the volume:

IOCTL_DISK_UPDATE_PROPERTIES

IOCTL_DISK_GROW_PARTITION

FSCTL_EXTEND_VOLUME

For example, you may use a third-party utility to resize a partition or to append unused space on a hard disk to an existing partition. If the third-party utility uses these IOCTLS and FSCTLS control codes, a Stop error may occur.
