System is an HP Compaq tc4200 running XP SP3. I know I'm behind the curve a goodly bit, you don't need to tell me seriously tho, "just effing upgrade" is not a valid solution to this problem right now.
Here's the error that comes up, scribbled down quickly from (gasp) an actual bluescreen...
I've got a screenie of the problem in Event Manager (this is a frequently recurring problem) here.
My local tech guy politely pointed me towards gooooooooooogle, but either my google-fu is weak (old man) or I've discovered a new error code, because Big G won't tell me shit. The stuff in the FAQ here (sticky in this forum) isn't helping, either.
So I put it to you, [H], what's the problem giving my system the sniffles?
