Overview of Hardlock.sys What Is Hardlock.sys? Hardlock.sys is a type of SYS file associated with DIAdem developed by DIAdem for the Windows Operating System. The latest known version of Hardlock.sys is 1.0.0.0, which was produced for Windows 95b 95b. This SYS file carries a popularity rating of 1 stars and a security rating of 'UNKNOWN'. What Are SYS Files? SYS files such as hardlock.sys are third-party (eg. DIAdem) device drivers or critical system files that come as part of the Windows operating system.

Most SYS files allow internal PC hardware or attached hardware, such as a printer, to communicate with third-party software programs (eg. Web browsers, word processors, DIAdem) and the operating system (eg. Windows 95b 95b). Other SYS files are critical system files called 'kernel mode device drivers' which are used to power the Windows 95b 95b operating system.

Files such as 'CONFIG.SYS' contain configuration settings and specify what device drivers should be loaded by the operating system. Without driver files such as hardlock.sys, you wouldn't be able to do simple tasks such as printing a document. Why Do I Have SYS Errors? SYS file errors are typically caused by faulty hardware or corrupt device driver files. Because of the importance of Hardlock.sys in the functionality of DIAdem and other Windows functions, any corruption or damage to this file can create critical system errors in the form of a 'blue screen of death' (BSOD). Please see 'Causes of Hardlock.sys Errors' below for more information.

When Do SYS Errors Occur? SYS errors, such as those associated with hardlock.sys, most often occur during computer startup, program startup, or while trying to use a specific function in your program (eg. Common Hardlock.sys Error Messages The majority of hardlock.sys errors that you encounter will be 'blue screen of death' errors (also know as a 'BSOD' or 'STOP error') that occur in Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10: • 'A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. The problem seems to be caused by the following file: Hardlock.sys.'

• ':( Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart. We’re just collecting some info, and then we’ll restart for you. If you would like to know more, you can search online later for this error: hardlock.sys.'

• 'STOP 0x0000000A: IRQL_NOT_LESS_EQUAL – hardlock.sys' • 'STOP 0x0000001E: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED – hardlock.sys' • 'STOP 0×00000050: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA – hardlock.sys' In most cases, you will experience hardlock.sys blue screen errors after you’ve installed new hardware or software. These hardlock.sys blue screens can appear during program installation, while a hardlock.sys-related software program (eg. DIAdem) is running, while a DIAdem driver is being loaded, or during Windows startup or shutdown. Keeping track of when and where your STOP error occurs is a critical piece of information in troubleshooting the problem. Recommendation: Causes of Hardlock.sys Errors Hardlock.sys blue screen errors can be caused by a variety of hardware, firmware, driver, or software issues.

These could be related to either DIAdem software or DIAdem hardware, but it is not necessarily the case. More specifically, these hardlock.sys errors can be caused by: • Incorrectly configured, old, or corrupted DIAdem device drivers. (very common) • Corruption in Windows registry from a recent hardlock.sys-related software change (install or uninstall). • Virus or malware infection that has corrupted the hardlock.sys file or related DIAdem program files.
