PROBLEM:
A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to protect your computer. Run a system diagnostic supplied by your HW manufacturer. In particular, run a memory check and check for faulty or mismatched memory. Try changing video adapters, disable recently installed HW or SW, etc..... Begining dump of physical memory.
SOLUTION1:
Reboot the machine into Safe Mode. As soon as it boots up, start hitting the F8 key and choose plain old Safe Mode. Then right-click on My Computer, choose Manage, Device Manager and look for anything with an exclamation or question mark and temporarily disable that. Sometimes, just getting in and out of Safe Mode mysteriously fixes things.
SOLUTION2:
Memory is cheap right now. I would try buying a new stick and putting that in, replacing the old one(s). The problem usually REALLY is what the error message says, and it says you have memory problems. If you'd rather debug it, try this: Remove one of the memory chips (usually easily accessible underneath). Then reboot and see how it does. Then try the other chip all by itself. This assumes there's more than one memory chip.

I event of Blue screen error on my computer I usually try to restore the system files to earlier stage using the System Restore feature which comes in Windows XP and later Windows. This method helps ensures that the most recent drivers and system files which were working for your computer are restored and the problems related to your hardware drivers is fixed.
