System has recovered from a serious error upon restart -HELP!!!!!!

[Guest]

My system appears to function properly for extended periods of time, but
after it sits idle for a while, it seems to lock up. Inevitably I have to
shut down and log back in. When I do log back in, an error message appears
stating "The system has recovered from a serious error" and the following
report appears-

BCCode : 1000007e BCP1 : C0000005 BCP2 : F3003285 BCP3 : F7A1E82C
BCP4 : F7A1E52C OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 1_0 Product : 768_1



C:\WINNT\Minidump\Mini100504-01.dmp
C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER2.tmp.dir00\sysdata.xml

Can anyone help? This has been going on for a while and I'm desperate!

Good luck

Thanks for the help, unfortunately this looks like a sea of potential
problems. Is there any way to narrow my search based on the specifics of the
error message delivered? Everyone I talk to has a different opinion, some
think its hardware, others seem to think it is software. Recently I've
installed both an external 40 GB Firelight Harddrive and a Motorola wireless
modem sending a signal to a Link Sys receiver plugged into my USB port. I
must admit, I believe I had minor versions of this problem prior to these
hardware additions anyway.

How do you read the error message?

How do you read the error message?

To see error message right-click on My Computer and select Manage.

Expand the Event Viewer category (click on the + sign) and browse
through each of the 3 subcategories looking for red-flagged error
records whose date and time stamps correspond to your problem
incidents.

Double click on an error record to see the details of that error.

Good luck

I guess I wasn't specific enough. What do the BCCode, BCP1, BCP2, BCP3 and
BCP4 codes represent?

I guess I wasn't specific enough. What do the BCCode, BCP1, BCP2, BCP3 and
BCP4 codes represent?

BCCode = Bug Check Code. Alternative name for STOP code.
BCP1, BCP2, BCP3, BCP4 = Bug Check Paramter 1, 2, 3, and 4
respectively. These are the 4 parameters that are recorded for each
error. The meaning of each parameter is usually specific to that Bug
Check/STOP code.

On a Blue Screen Of Death STOP message this information will be
presented as:

Stop:

 (parameter1, parameter2, parameter3, parameter4)

Hope this clarifies the situation.

Good luck

Hi there!,
Saw your problem listed and it is very similar to one I have been
trying to solve for a friend..have you found an answer as yet??
I spent ages checking everything on this comp. found one very invasive
program called Free Solitiare..uninstalled, did the usual checks to
remove left overs etc(incl.Sysedit) then did a search through Win
Explor. and found 46 further entries... I also increased the virtual
page memory by 50% more than Win XP Home recomendations.. problem seems
to be solved.. I think more than anything the page mem increase did the
trick..
