SUMMARY
A Windows 2000-based computer that uses the FAT file system may generate the following error message:

STOP 0x00000023 (Parameter1, Parameter2, Parameter3, Parameter4)

FAT_FILE_SYSTEM



MORE INFORMATION
This error message can be generated when a problem has occurred when you are using the FAT file system. There may be a physical problem with the disk, or an interrupt request packet (IRP) may not be able to be successfully completed or may be corrupted.

Troubleshooting steps:


 * 1) Disable all file system filter drivers, such as backup utilities, virus scanners, or firewall software.
 * 2) Ensure the integrity of the file system by running Chkdsk.exe.
 * 3) Check the file properties of the Fastfat.sys file to ensure that it matches the current version of the operating system or service pack.
 * 4) Update all disk, tape backup, CD-ROM, or removable device drivers to the most current versions.
