serious error blue screen

[brucegooglegroups]

For the past few months I get periodic serious error blue screens-
usually when the system starts up or has been running all day. I
recently started using hibernate, and I have less frequent serious
errors. My event ID showed 7023.

In the past, the error code has been BC code: 7a BCP1 Co7789980( more
numbers, but I haven't included them all)

Do I need to reformat or do a Dell restore?


Comments?
Thanks.

Your post isn't 100% clear. You need to post complete copies of Error
Reports.

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by
allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on
the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced,
Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before
Automatically Restart.

Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure even after you have
solved the problem as it's better disabled. Check for variants of the
Stop Error message.

An alternative is to keep pressing the F8 key during Start-Up and select
option - Disable automatic restart on system failure.

If you are using a wireless keyboard and the F8 key does not work
substitute a wired keyboard and mouse for this exercise only.

Also look for Error Reports in the System log in Event Viewer.
Please post copies of all Error and Warning Reports appearing in
the System and Application logs in Event Viewer for the last boot. No
Information Reports or Duplicates please. Indicate which also appear in
a previous boot.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel,
Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. When researching the meaning
of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description
are important.

Part of the Description of the error will include a link, which you
should double click for further information. You can copy using copy
and paste. Often the link will, however, say there is no further
information.

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. Click the button and close Event
Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from
Event Viewer.

Here is my latest error code. I am now experiencing several blue
screens a day.
BCCode : 7a BCP1 : C07BA680 BCP2 : C000000E BCP3 :

The BC code is always the same.
