What are VCdRom.sys Error Messages?


VCdRom.sys Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Errors

There are a number of reasons why you could be encountering issues with VCdRom.sys. Most of the issues concerning sys files involve Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors. These types of VCdRom.sys errors can be cause by hardware problems, outdated firmware, corrupt drivers, or other software-related (eg. Mount ISO Files Virtually update) issues. Some of these errors include:

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: VCdRom.sys.

It's Critical to Resolve Blue Screen of Death Errors

In the majority of cases, you will encounter VCdRom.sys BSOD errors after you've installed new hardware, software (Mount ISO Files Virtually), or performed a failed Windows Update. In other cases, software corruption caused by a malware infection can lead to VCdRom.sys Blue Screen of Death errors. Therefore, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.


GEEK TIP : As a rule of thumb, it's always a good idea to create a Windows "Snapshot" backup / System Restore Point before making any hardware or software changes to your computer. That way, it's very easy to restore your system in the unfortunate event you encounter a VCdRom.sys Blue Screen of Death error after recent changes.



How to Fix VCdRom.sys Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your VCdRom.sys issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".

  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the VCdRom.sys error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many VCdRom.sys error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

  1. Hit the Windows Start button

  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the VCdRom.sys error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.



If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your VCdRom.sys File (Caution: Advanced)

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve VCdRom.sys problems.

Download VCdRom.sys Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying VCdRom.sys to your appropriate Windows system directory.

The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing VCdRom.sys and all other SYS files for Mount ISO Files Virtually. An incorrectly installed SYS file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
