Well, to start out, you've no where near an adequate amount of RAM for
what you trying to do. Upgrade the amount of RAM to at least 512Mb; 1
Gb would be better.

Secondly, without the specific error message from the BSOD, we can't
even begin to offer specific corrective actions. To get started
troubleshooting the cause of your problems, we'll need to learn what
specific errors are occurring and being recorded.

To get the error message from the blue screen (a.k.a. the BSOD --
Blue Screen of Death), you'll need to turn off WinXP's automatic
reboot "feature:" Right-click My Computer > Properties > Advanced >
Startup and Recovery > Uncheck "Automatically restart." The next time
your PC crashes, you'll be left with a blue screen full of memory
addresses and other seeming gibberish. The top 2 or 3 lines of this
screen will contain information that can help solve your problem.
Carefully write down these lines and post the exact text back here.
Hopefully, one of us will be able to provide some insight.

Additionally, you should check your Event Logs to see if they can
shed any light on the matter, To do so, Right-click My Computer >
Manage > Event Viewer > System and Application. Record the specifics
of any red-flagged error messages and post the exact text back here.
Again, hopefully, one of us will be able to provide some insight.

BSOD

Windows would freeze up on me after letting it sit for a while...now It wont start up and is giving me the BSOD with the following:

stop: 0x0000008E (0xc0000005, 0x806354df, 0xac2dc99c, 0x00000000)

I'm running a Dell Dimension XPS Gen 5 with 2 gig of RAM, so not sure why after all these years it has decided to do this. No new programs installed that I can think of. Purchased a desktop registry cleaner a few months back to keep things going smoothly (start-up seems to get slower and slower...and I don't know enough to know what to get rid of to speed it up).

In safe mode now and just want to get it back up to running smoothly so I can surf the web and play my games.

THANKS!

Re: BSOD

Mark

Have you backed up important data files?

Background information:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms794023.aspx

Anything more after this line:
stop: 0x0000008E (0xc0000005, 0x806354df, 0xac2dc99c, 0x00000000)

Desktop registry cleaners can be bad news.

Make sure you look in the System log in Event Viewer for Warning and
Error Reports.

Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on
the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties,
Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code?

Removing dust bunnies from inside the computer case with an Air Duster
may help.

Do you know how many memory sticks are installed? A simple test for
defective mamory can be to swap individual sticks in and about.
Otherwise you need to test memory. See previous link for how to go about
this task.

Your error code is KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
The KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED bug check has a value of
0x0000008E. This indicates that a kernel-mode program generated an
exception which the error handler did not catch.

In your instance the error occurred at memory address 0x806354df so if
you can identify which Windows component, application program, or
device driver uses that address it should be a clue as to the
underlying cause of the problem.

Have you tried using System Restore in Safe Mode to go back to the
most recent restore point that is prior to the onset of the error?
That might get you away from the problem.

Good luck
