Check for Viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed HDs or HD Controllers. Run chkdsk/F to check for HD corruption and then restart

Answer 1

Could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software. This  problem can be solved by uninstalling new software, updating device drivers and making minor configuration changes . From http://fixit.in/bluescreenofdeath.html . You can also run a free registry scan using utilities from http://re7.info

Never done this myself but there are sites on the web that give guidance.

try restarting in safe mode, revert to an eariler restart point, then tyr microsoft&#039;s advice in link provided.

If that fails, use the safe restart to get to an earlier point, copy off your data and do a clean install of XP.
