my comp has been crashing to blue screens a lot rescently, somthing to do with a Disk Boot Error, and when it crashes it says its "dumping physical memory" or sumthin like that. Does anyone know what causes this?

Heh my laptop has XP and won't even start anymore.

but that's mostly to do with a glass of water a couple of years ago and a heck of a lot of overheating.

Rough Hist -
1. Windows ME buggers totally so I install XP
2. Re-install all of the office progs,Crashes thru out, Also installed CIV2 but i doubt thats it, cant be a virus as it hasnt been connected to the net since i changed to XP.

the only thing i can think of adding is that my D-F: drives are FAT32....C: drive isnt, its the other one (NTFS?) does that help?

My sisters comp (xp) is doing exactly the same. its had a new HDD, Ram and Xp reinstalled, and it still does it. Id agree its most likely something hard disk related, it was with my sisters. Apart from getting a replacement drive and reinstalling xp im outta advice.
