XP home keeps rebooting/error

I posted this some where els and was told I was Hijacking someone els thread,
so here goes for my own post.

In November I put together my system. I have a RADEON 9600 256mb video card
1 gig of ram on a Biostar M7NCP Pro, Soney 56x CD reader. I instaled windows
XP Home Fresh install. Loaded drivers, then updated them, then ran windows
updates. I installed Ever Quest 2, then did disk check, then defraged, and
made a restore point. About a week ago I installed net metting. then little
by little my computer would restart. the last few days it would resater every
time I booted up, right after the windows logo. I tryed going in to safe
mode to do a restore, but it would lock up. I did get in 1 time and turned
off auto restart on fail. I have gotten all kinds of errors form mouse to
video conflict with net metting, user interface dll missing, winsrv missing,
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA, "The instruuction at "0x77f56321" referenced
memory at "0x80547c58". The memory could not be "read".". I tryed to the
restore boot from the CD and that didn't work. I tryed to install XP again
and I would get an error and would come back at 39 min remaining. I
reinstalled windows 98, and got that up and running did all the driver up
dates and BIOS update. I then tryed to install xp on a diffrent partion and
once again getting errors, and returning at 39 min, but the 98 is working
fine.

BTW that is my Gaming computer. Yes it is on all the time. I have DHCP from
my ISP, then a router, then a switch, then SP2 Firewall. No I'm not running
any anti virous software on it, and no I don't check any email, websites, or
even have the little msn guy running, heven for bid it lower my gamming exp
by 0.001% lol.

Now after posting that last night, My main computer did the same thing. It
went to the logo screen then rebooted, did that 2 times, then tryed a
diffrent partiton. So then I took my windows CD and put it in and hit enter
to install new, then hit R to repare. Then it came up with 39 min left, how
ever it did go all the way. when it asked me for my Product KEY, it told me
that mine was not good! I checked it, retyped it then checked it twice.
Thats a nother isuse but was not sure if it would have something to do with
what is going on.

I did have this same problem last year around april 10th as I thought it was
a virous just a week late for april 1st. I fixed that by just using the
windows CD. I don't know if this is an upgraded virus or not, because last
year it happend on all 3 xp computers and this year it has only happend on 2
of the 3 so far.

If it just happend On 1 computer I would have to agree, but it is happing on
2 now, and that fact that it happend about 1 year ago to date, and does not
explain why 98SE works.

It is updated. On the game I have it updated for 98, but can't up date it for
xp untill I install XP. the other comput I can't get in to update it, but
why would the driver all the sudden need updating?

Like any other file, drivers can get corrupted. And XP can be a lot fussier
on RAM than 9x PCs. You may also want to download your hard drive
manufacturer's utilities and check that hard drive.
