Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
My computer keeps crashing on a fresh boot up (so far not on restart or during use), but it only happens ever few days or about once a week. I can't safe mode, repair the os, nor boot from cd. Every time I have to wipe the hard drive and install XP. But it still happens.
Computer:
Dell XPS Gen 2; 4 years old heavy use
Pentium 4 3.2ghz
120gb sata hd
2 gig ram kingston 400
XP service pack 2 installed from original cd
video card ati radeon 9800 pro 128
Software is pretty basic, and all stuff i've used for years. Stripped it down to the basic stuff like firefox 3, kaspersky, etc. but still happens.
Ran Memtest: 9 passes, zero errors.
Dell diagnostic cd says hard drive and memory both good.
Error codes: Stop 0x0000007E (0xC0000005; 0x80567B0D; 0xf789E0A0; 0xF789DD9C)
No minidumps available because I have to wipe hard drive to get XP installed again.
Please help before I go mad reinstalling.
