Along with the MS Knowledge Base, which can be reached via the link below,
this site is a good resource for those errors...

As usual... Try safe mode w/network.
Run your antivirus (if only it isn't the culprit itself).
Get latest drivers & patches.
If nothingh helps, give up and reinstall XP...

Make sure you have the latest drivers for your modem and video card and the
latest updates from Windows Update.

I've run into this problem a couple times and it seemed to be related to my
USB flash drive - seems to be fixed since I did the latest USB-related
Windows Update.

Hope this helps!
