How to solve Error Message “Resource Not Owned” in Windows

June 26th, 2009 by admin | Filed in Windows Operating System

To add a new hardware to your system, you need to install a device driver for that particular hardware device. While installing a compatible device driver allows the operating system to communicate with the hardware, an incompatible or corrupted device driver installation can result into a STOP error message.

Data saved in your system becomes inaccessible after you encounter a STOP error message. For complete restoration of lost data, an updated backup acts as a boon. However, in absence of an updated backup, you need to use advanced data recovery application that can recover your lost data.

Consider a practical scenario, where you install a HP printer driver on your system. After the installation process is over and you restart your system, you encounter any of the below error messages:

Stop 0x000000e3 (0x81d534c8, 0x8210fc20, 0×00000000, 0×00000002)
RESOURCE_NOT_OWNED

The four parameters in the above error message differ with system’s configuration.

Or

STOP 0x000000E3 RESOURCE_NOT_OWNED

Data saved in the hard drive becomes inaccessible after any of the above error messages appears.

Cause:

The root cause for the occurrence of any of the above error message is the installation of Hewlett-Packard (HP) printer driver that contains the Hpbfff2.dll file.

Resolution:

To resolve the above issue and access the data, you need to update your computer to the printer driver included on the Windows 2000 Server CD-ROM. To do so, you will need to follow the below steps:

  1. You need to click Start, select Settings, and then click Printers.
  2. On the File menu, click Server Properties.
  3. Click the Drivers tab and select HP driver in the installed printer drivers box that uses the Hpbfff2.dll file.
  4. Click Remove, and then click OK.

NOTE: To determine which files a driver is using, click the driver in the Installed printer drivers box, and then click Properties. The Driver Properties dialog box lists the files used by the driver.

  1. Reinstall the printer by using the drivers included on the Windows 2000 CD-ROM.
  2. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each printer driver using the Hpbfff2.dll file.
  3. Click Close.

However, if all the steps fail to resolve the problem and you still encounter the same error message, then you need to opt for effective data recovery software. These data recovery utilities incorporate advanced scanning mechanisms to recover lost data from your hard drive. Built with intuitive user-interface, automated recovery procedure and powerful features, these applications serve as self-explanatory and recovery centric tools.
