Windows XP (2002) Home Ed Crashing out

[Guest]

Hi all. Recently installed intel P4 into compatible (IM845GL) motherboard and
ever since I'e been having all sorts of problems. Everything seems to be
working then a sudden crash and it reboots as if nothing has happened.
Getting error messages to do with graphics driver (working OK) and
'scvhost.exe' which I have no idea about. I'm slowly going insane, can
anybody help. Many Thanx

If the file is really scvhost.exe instead of XP's svchost.exe then your
system has been infected. Check your system with an antivirus program that
has current virus definitions installed.

One of many references on the net about this (search for scvhost.exe at
Google for more):
