You likely have a corrupt virtual device driver.

This often happens when memory goes bad, or come loose in the sockets.

It may also happen in W9X if you install more than 511MB of ram.

Check your memory first.

If you still can't boot up,you may need to clear out the related .vxd files from the
windows\system
windows\system\vmm32
windows\system\iosubsys
folders.

Then, re-install the device driver for the associated hardware.

Hi, You are probly very frustrated at this point. When I get situations like this I usually try to boot into safe mode by pressing CRL-ALT-DEL. Watch the computer screen for a memory test then press F5. This will take you into safemode. Click OK to get to the desk to the desktop. Right click Mycomputer, click properties. One at a time click each plus sign to check for duplications. Delete the duplicates and reboot. If this doesn't fix the problem. Use your system File Checker to find missing orcorrupted file. Good Luck,
