    0x8E issues are hardware related though sometimes they can be caused by drivers.

    These are often, but certainly not always, due to corrupted memory.

    First run Memtest on your RAM for a minimum of 7 Passes (8 individual tests per Pass). Any errors and you have memory that needs to be replaced.

    www.memtest.org (it is free; some websites try to get you to pay)

    * Get back to us with the results
