I was just tooling around on my old asus a7n266 machine the other day and it completely crapped out on me. I rebooted and i got an "UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP" (0x000007F) type error when booting into win2k. I looked it up and it seems to be a hardware failing issue (i think its my memory) and i was just wondering if any of you all have come across an error such as this before and what the fix was. I am getting a new machine soon and i really dont feel like messing with this one because i fix enough machines at work. Just voice any experiences, thanks!
 
Could be failing hardware, or maybe just a corrupt windows file. Id run a mem test on it and see if you get any errors, if not then you know its gotta be hard drive related.

Im not sure youd be able to defineatly say whats causing it without doing things the hard way

A very good description of what an "UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP" is:
The UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP bug check has a value of 0x0000007F. This indicates that a trap was generated by the Intel CPU and the kernel failed to catch this trap.

...with a listing of the error codes, what the source is, etc.

It's a start - good luck.
