Please help! Windows error 1000008e - I have no idea it is!

[AceCobra1]

Hi all,

I am getting some issues with windows... restarts intermittently...

have a read at this thread:

http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/winxp/t1059440671

Basically i saw someone said:

For these who have dual channel ram : switch ram to normal non-dual mode - it will be fine.

I did that and working solid as a rock... but any ideas how to remedy the problem because i'd certainly take an unnessasary performance hit if i do that...

Setup:

Pentium D 805 - no overclock
XMS 2 - 2x 512MB
Asus SLI 7900GTX
OCZ 700W PSU
P5N32 Asus motherboard...
2 x DVDRW drive

think thats about it...

Any ideas/ inputs would be greatly appreciated!

Memory timings may be too tight, check with the memory website for their timing and voltage reccomendations.

what is my suggestion: Install MS debugger and open with it minidump.dmp file which is saved after blue screen (you need to set it in options). runing debugged file should give you much more information about the issue causing that error.
