***STOP:0X0000007B (0X00000002BF0) and more of that kinda stuff, then it says...If thisis the firt time you've sen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps: Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHDSK to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

Refer to your getting started manual for more information on trouble shooting stop errors.
