I have a machine with XP SP2 that pretty much runs fine. I also use VMWare which has also run fine. Whenever I start a virtual machine the machine crashes and reboots.

In the event viewer I also see:
Error code 1000008e, parameter1 c0000005, parameter2 f76f9c5d, parameter3 af982b48, parameter4 00000000.

Don't know if it's related.
Here is a dump analysis with Windbg:
!analyze -v

*************************************************************************** ****

KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M (1000008e)
This is a very common bugcheck. Usually the exception address pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem. Always note this address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003. This means a hard
coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
/NODEBUG. This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have
hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
system is booted /DEBUG. This will let us see why this breakpoint is
happening.
Arguments:
Arg1: c0000005, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: f76f9c5d, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: af982b48, Trap Frame
Arg4: 00000000

---------
Anyone got a notion on where I can start, where I should look? I have a Belkin USB hub on the machine, don't know if that offers any clue. It's an Abit AN7 mb.

Once the VM crashes the machine the VM file is corrupted and VMWare does not recognize the VM.

HELP!!!!
