Has anyone here ever seen this error when simply booting WinPE (disk 1 of
the toolkit)?

The system boots fine, seems to start up all of the services and then about
8 seconds later, crashes with that error.
 
Can you instruct WinPE to boot using the default VGA Standard driver instead
of it's guess? I've run RAM checks, the ram is fine. Therefore I suspect
that WinPE is assuming an incorrect video driver.
 
What else do you see on the BSOD? Any info on the driver/app that caused the
crash?
On the same hardware have you tried XP Pro? Have you seen the same problem?
 
What was the stop code?

Unfortunately, XP pro also crashes during install. The hardware vendor says
they've installed XP Pro on the hardware before. I'm beginning to think I
have a bum unit.
 
I've seen this BSOD a few times. Once with mtxdma0.sys so unless you are
using a Matrox frame grabber this is not an issue.

The other time I saw it no file was listed. I thought I had bad memory. A
bad memory stick that is :-). I put in another stick and the machine booted
fine. I put the original memory stick back in and it booted fine so go
figure.

I doubt its related to WinPE especially since your h/w vendor says that XP
Pro loads fine.

HTH... Doug
