Laptop BSOD While Loading Windows

[Trintar VIII]

Hi, when I try to start up a friend's laptop, I get the BSOD before Windows can load. The error is:

INVALID_WORK_QUEUE_ITEM

****BSOD INFO*****

Technical Information:

*** STOP: 0x00000096 (0x81B14430, 0x80548ABC, 0x80548A80, 0x80571358)

Any help would be much appreciated.
