Hi
Can you tell me your motherboard model no. and maker?
I had that problem too.
Remove or reinstall Intel Application Accelertor too that fixed it once.
Get the newest version (no idea what one) off the intel site.

Good luck m8

i got a chaintech 7njs ultra

what is the intel accelerator? where can it be found to be uninstalled... and i got amd athlon xp 3000+ not a pentium. do i still need to do the intel accelerator thing?

that is one of the more general errors you have there - I expect most people encountering a BSOD will have seen that one time or another.

First question maybe is if you have changed/installed any drivers lately - this can be associated with a bad driver.

Secondly I would ask how your RAM is performing - maybe run memtest86 for an overnighter to give it a test - also remember that memory can perform worse at higher temps - so if your machine only does this under heavy load (say, after a while gaming) then it could still be a memory issue if cooling is less than adequate.
[EDIT]
If it is on startup have a look http://http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;839876 here [/EDIT]
If those suggestions do not help then post back again....

i get this crap all the time... and the .sys changes everytime...

it works fine for counterstrike... but crashes... for star craft... like a few seconds into the game and sometime in the channels... i can never play sc for over 10 minutes.. online or single player...

 

[sigsays]

so the stop 0x codes and the .sys change everytime....

try running in start>run
fsc /scannow (need ur xp disc)
it will verify ur windows files anyway.
What u got in ur usb ports btw?

mouse/keyboard/keyboard/camera

yes 2 keyboards... lol.. don't ask... it even happens when i remove a keyboard and camera.

the thing is counter strike uses alot more resources.. so i don't see why it only happens to star craft.. even when i try to play sc.. i turn off all the xtra sounds and videos....

and i ran memtest86 the newest version for a decent amount of time... nothing wrong.. no errors... and a handful of passes...

Try this.
If you got a Logitech might be worth a try.

 

[sigsays]

If you are getting random and different STOP errors, 95% of the time it is a bad stick of RAM. Try removing one, and then another and see if it stops.

 

[sigsays]

nothing is wrong with the memory

 

[ZeroHour]

This a new error?
Will have a hunt 😀

 

[ZeroHour]

ATI drivers prob in your last screen.
Check for firmware and reinstall your drivers anyway.

 

[j79zlr]

How can you be so sure nothing is wrong with the memory, this really seems like a RAM problem.

 

[ZeroHour]

Not saying that. I had the stop errors before though and my ram was fine.
Just going from my experience m8, no offence it could be RAM.
