Error code 0000009c – any ideas?

by krustymonkey . Updated 16 years, 4 months ago

Hi, I have a windows XP PC that is driving me crazy. I get system resets at various moments.

I thought at first that it was just when I was having a game of quake – however I have seen this now happen at other times such as using word, photoshop, explorer, just being idle etc etc.

Does anyone have any ideas at all how I can approach this? I’ll tell you what I’ve done down….

This is the Event Log Text:
Error code 0000009c, parameter1 00000000, parameter2 8054d370, parameter3 c4044000, parameter4 00000136.

Now…..Windows suggests that this is a hardware or driver issue so I have run a full 24 hour check of my memory (during which time I think it happened again) – and got no memory issues reported.

I have also installed motherboard monitor to checkthe CPU temperatures – and have not observed anything in excess of 45C.

All drivers are up to date – every single one of them, motherboards, graphis cards etc etc

I have googled for this and have found various suggestions – Windows XP SP2, temperature overheats etc etc and have done my best to rule them out.

I can’t afford to just start buying hardware to try to swap things out and the original supplier no longer exists.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
