thanks for any help

0xD1 errors are normally Bad Device Driver Issues or Faulty or Mismatched RAM.

Try updating your Network Drivers.

If this doesn't help then follow this
Memtest86 Instructions
Download the pre-built version of Memtest86 (Link Below) and burn it onto a CD using ISO Recorder (Link Below) after this boot off the CD and start the test going and let it run for 3-5 hours (Minimum of 7 Passes) or Overnight which is best.

is there an easy way to determine which if any of my network drivers need to be updated?

how do i update network drivers?

Go to Device Manager (Start -> Run -> devmgmt.msc -> OK) and update all Network Drivers normally about 2-3 there.
