Hi tjcford,

If you can boot into Windows can you look for some minidumps (most likely at
c:\windows\minidumps) and send me a couple? I can see if they point to
something or determine if we need to employ some other tools to track down
the issue. Here is what your particular error is. We should hopefully still
be able to determine the faulty component.

Hi tjcford,

Sorry sent too soon. Here is the description of the error.

ACPI_BIOS_FATAL_ERROR (0xE0)

Your computer (BIOS) has reported that a component in your system is too
faulty
for Windows to be able to run.

You can determine which component is faulty by running the diagnostic disk
or
tool that came with your computer.

If you do not have this tool, you must contact your system vendor and report
this error message to them. They will be able to assist you in correcting
this
hardware problem, thereby allowing Windows to operate. Microsoft cannot
assist
in the debugging of this problem -- only the hardware vendor can interpret
the
bug check parameters and debug this error.
