You need to provide a lot more information if you want to get focused
troubleshooting.

1. Give some description of the computer - is it old? hardware specs?
2. Did the computer ever work correctly? If so, what changed between the
time things worked and the time they didn't?
3. Is there any more to the error message than just General Protection
Fault?
4. What version of XP are you running (Home or Pro) and what Service
Pack level?
5. Have you done any troubleshooting at all? If so, what?
6. Does the machine boot into Windows at all? Exactly when do you get
the error message?
7. Are you able to get into Safe Mode or Last Known Good Configuration?

Please post a copy of the Error Message. However, my suspicion is that your query to an earlier operating system and not Windows XP to which this newsgroup is dedicated.

Hope this helps.
