Halp!

Our desktop computer keeps spewing out this error message when it does a blue screen of death. Does anyone know what it means and how I can fix it before His Lordship gets home and discovers that I've somehow managed to crap up his £800 computer.

What O/S are you using? That seems like the standard blue screen of death message I used to get with XP. Whare are you doing when the message occurs?

You could also try a 'MemTest' you burn the program to floppy disk or CD and run it before start time and it checks to see if your memory is faulty. Especially if it just does it randomly (blue screen+reboot itself).
Don't use windows any more so I don't have a link sorry :(

Going by the error codes you could have faulty RAM, bad drivers or a software problem.
XP is a bit of a cronk when it comes to memory testing, so you either have to use something like memtest or one of microsofts tools - http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp

Read all instructions, memory tests are not for the faint of heart and shouldn't be done too often.

If you have an Nvidia graphics card, then update the drivers to the latest ones. I've had nothing but trouble using Nvidia hardware with Vista this year all because Nvidia can't write drivers for vista very well. I have suffered BSOD's a plenty. But the latest drivers are thankfully stable at the moment. Roll on windows 7 i say.

How are the computer woes? I showed your photo to Andrew and he said that basically it could be anything - which is not really much help! I hope you've found a fix.
