computer crashes suddenly for no reason

[andy]

recently, my computer crashes for no apparent reason -
everything was working fine - no changes have been made,
no hardware has been added - it just began to crash when
using memory intensive programs such as Photoshop. Here
is the error message I'm getting:

BCCode : 7f BCP1 : 0000000D BCP2 : 00000000
BCP3 : 00000000
BCP4 : 00000000 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 1_0
Product : 768_1

Microsoft's automatic crash analysis says it is a device
driver, but unknown as to which. also, no device drivers
have been changed within the last 4 months - i rolled back
to the original video driver, but this didn't help either.

I use XP with the latest updates installed and nVidia
GeForce FX 5200 video card, 256MB RAM Memory, Athlon
900MHz - any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Did you reset configurations in bios for the Nvidia? I

have the same cpu but made sure my board could handle the
video card.

You're going to have to play with your video card settings and drivers, esp.
if you have DirectX 8.1 or above

7F is a 'unexpected kernel trap' and more often than anything caused by
hardware troubles, possibly memory going down, so I would do a rigorous
memory check - free tester at www.memtest86.com
