Mup.sys
I am having problems with my mup.sys file on boot up. It gets to the pioint of loading the mup.sys then it jams, we tryed a heap of things and in the end we got a new HHD, now it has started again, and we have no idea, so if anyone could give me any help on this matter, it would help us out some. Thanks

I am using Windows XP home, but its also happened on a PRO computer, and something like this has happened on a Unix box, but we have yet to find out if it is the same thing.

We cant do a clean install, as the install program dies when it goes to read the MUP file(it loads it into ram), so thats dead, if we use a boot disk,then we cant see the C drvie for some reason. so anyone got any new ideas.

Bloody mup
I just had this problem 5 mins ago. After a few secs of showing mup.sys and hanging there, it blue screened saying "unmountable_boot_volume"
luckily I had another HDD with its own copy of windows on it. I threw that in teh machine and booted off it. In windows I gave my problematic disk drive a complete scan disk (my computer: right click on driver). Then i restarted and booted off it.

Happened while ago also for me and for my XP. I have made 2nd installation of WinXP to parallel HD and when I got this mup.sys problem, I immediatelly tried to boot windows by setting parallel drive as a master. This didn't help and I figured it might be hardware problem. Well, I just continued booting my computer with safe mode, etc and finally my XP started(dont ask me why, but it did). I checked device manager and found my XP is having problems with USB port. I detached my USB-port CF card reader and reinstalled USB drivers and voila'. I checked few other forums and quite many, who had the same problem, was related somehow to USB drivers or USB cards.

I know I'm late but you're all wrong.
This is how you fix the VERY common Mup.sys problem.
Boot off the windows cd, load the recovery console.
Type "disable mup"
Hit Enter
All done, windows works. Mup.sys is the service to connect to Novell servers. %99.99909 of people won't need this.
Maybe an admin should sticky this. Almost every Win NT/2K/XP/2003 user will encounter this at some time or another.
