Post a copy of the full Error Report from Event Viewer.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools,
Event Viewer.

HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button
resembling two pages. Double click the button and close Event Viewer.
Now start your
message (email) and do a paste into the body of the message. This will
paste the
info from the Event Viewer Error Report complete with links into the
message. Make
sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event Viewer.

Hope this helps.
