Blue screen

[Guest]

I keep having reboots & blue screens - usually when playing games like Everquest or Age of Mythology but also sometimes when I'm just web browsing or doing nothing much. I've set the Windows error options so that it no longer reboots, so now I just get a load of junk on the screen when it crashes. I've captured a load of mini-memory dumps but haven't a clue what to do with them

Looking back at the error log, there are things like

Error code 0000000a, parameter1 00000000, parameter2 00000002, parameter3 00000000, parameter4 804f51b2
o
Error code 0000000a, parameter1 dbebf9fd, parameter2 00000002, parameter3 00000000, parameter4 804fb013
o
Error code 1000008e, parameter1 c0000005, parameter2 80533f7b, parameter3 f452c840, parameter4 00000000
o
Error code 00000024, parameter1 001902fa, parameter2 f4ec0038, parameter3 f4ebfd38, parameter4 f8646497

All equally meaningless to me :

I've had the problem on and off for months and can't pin it down to a new device driver etc even tho' that seems to be the constant message I get from the MS error tracking service

Can anyone give me a clue where to start ?
