c000021a Fatal error and 0x000000f4 restart

I have been running Battlefield 1942 Road To Rome for many
months with no problems, I played the game last night. I
used my computer to download some files from various
locations this morning and when I attmpted to play BF1942
today, it caused a shutdown and restart of the machine.
after isolating the cause I found the reason to be
0x0000008e(0xc0000005,0xe1abf231,0xecfc4970,0x00000000.
I downloaded new drivers from NVidia and Turtle Beach and
did a complete virus scan using McAfee Virus Scan Online.
I then retored the computer to a point 3 days ago,
reinstalled BF1942. I now get 0x000000F4
(0X00000003,0X81FC3580,0X81FC3724,0X805ACAC85)right after
the windows XP screen during the 1st reboot attempt, and
then get a C000021 Fatal System Error: 0XC0000005
(0X75E96003,0X0069F1DC). Then I get a normal reboot.
Repeats if I try to run BF1942, can run other programs
such as IE, Excel, Access, Cue Club, Spider Solitare.
I need help, please!

Hi Voyager,

I would boot from XP CD and perform a repair install.
How to repair Windows XP without losing your programs
and data: http://michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm
Afterwards, Go to the WindowsUpdate site for everything
under Critical and Recommended: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

Then update your chipset, sound, video, monitor and other
system drivers. If you want instructions let me know. :-)

Thanks Jimmy!

SOme of the items you mentioned I had tried anf the the
other I did try after your suggestion. To make a long
story short, things went from bad to worst. I started to
get boot problems, as soon as the memory test completed
the computer would shutdown with a blue screen and a
meesage such as 0X0000008E, or 0X00000007. I started
booting from the XP CD to attempt a repair and the repair
of XP took approximately 8 hours to complete, the
computer was slower than an 8088. After the repair was
complete I had to do a shutdown for some reason and
could not get a reboot. The drive light blinks and the CD
light blinks and power is on but the memory test does not
take place and no display on monitor. I assume that my
BIOS was corrupted and that a Virus is in the system even
though McAfee says that it is clean. So I went out and
got a new main board (ASUS A7V8X-X)and installed it,
booted from the CD and did a repair to XP in approx 10
Minutes. All appears normal now. Have not shut down and
rebooted yet????? If I get back up I will let you know.
Again thanks for your assistance!

Glad to help. I had to replace my motherboard recently
as well, so I can certainly feel your pain there. ;-)

Cheers,
Jimmy.
