For the past month, each time I restart, I get an error message "The system has just recovered from a serious error." Sometimes I get two or three such messages in succession.

Also, the computer randomly restarts.

I tried sending the error report to Microsoft, and once it gave me the report that the problem was because of the RAM. So I took the RAM cards out, dusted off the connection points and put them back in. But again, I get the same error. This time the error page says that the problem was caused by a Device Driver.

I don't understand what's wrong. Here are my minidump files:

Please please help me - I'm getting desperate.

4 of your minidumps are corrupt and unreadable.

1 minidump crashes at win32k.sys.

This is probably a symptom of faulty hardware, with ram being the most likely culprit.

Go and read this thread HERE and test your ram etc.

Thanks.

That Memtest sounds really complicated, and I'm not a computer person at all. I'll try everything else given on that thread though.

What's win32k.sys?

File Name: Win32k.sys
File Size: 1.796.864
File Version: 5.1.2600.1275 (xpsp2.030825-2117)
File Company: Microsoft Corporation
File Description: Multi-User Win32 Driver
File Type: Windows NT/2000/XP Driver.

The above driver is seldom the actual culprit.

Memtest86+ is fairly easy to run, just read the tutorial that`s linked in the thread I asked you to read. It`s very important for you to test your ram.

Regards Howard

I got the problem fixed

Somebody had a look at it, and said there were too many files in the Temporary Windows folder, and just deleted all of them.
