I seem to have a problem with my Dell D420 laptop. I have 2 partitions on my laptop running 2 different operating systems(XP and Ubuntu).

The XP partition shows tthe following error message:
Services and Controller app has encountered a problem and need to close.

When i click on send error report or don't send, it shows another pop up message indicating that the system will be shutting down in 60 seconds. It's really disturbing me as it comes when i have a lot of work to do.

Any help on how to prevent this from happening shall be greatly appreciated.

If you are really fortunate, when the error message appears, the blue bar at the top of the message windows will give you a clue as to which service or application is causing this problem, also when you are prompted to send an error report (or not) you can get additional information about the problem by clicking the link.
If that is no help to you it might be useful to post the info for us here and someone will no doubt tell you what it all means
