Computer Crashes after startup

[ClassicC]

Every single time my computer boots up it crashes and when it reboots it's
fine. However, this is becoming an annoyance and I haven't been able to fix
it.

Here's what the event log has:

Error code 1000000a, parameter1 a56313b0, parameter2 00000002, parameter3
00000000, parameter4 805365f1.

Background information on Stop Error message

0x0000000A: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
Typically due to a bad driver, or faulty or incompatible hardware or
software. Use the General Troubleshooting of STOP Messages checklist
above. Technically, this error condition means that a kernel-mode
process or driver tried to access a memory location to which it did not
have permission, or at a kernel Interrupt ReQuest Level (IRQL) that was
too high. (A kernel-mode process can access only other processes that
have an IRQL lower than, or equal to, its own.)

You receive a "Stop 0x0000000A" error message in Windows XP

Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on
the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties,
Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code?

Try Start, Run, type "sigverif.exe" without quotes and hit OK. What
drivers are listed as unsigned? Disregard those which are not checked.

Does the error ever occur if you boot to safe mode?

Hope this helps.
