If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps: Check to be sure you have adequate disk space. If a driver is identified in the Stop message, disable the driver or check with the manufacturer for driver updates. Try chaging video adapters. Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode. Technical Information: *** STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xF87D2CA3, 0xF898EBEC, 0xF898E8E8) anyhow I restarted my PC and Booted of the Dell Dimension Resources CD and I did a diagnostics & everything Passed I was thing if the above problem related to a hardware or Software .

This happens now and then. Don't worry about it unless it keeps happening or if you have just installed different drivers or hardware. http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=330182&sd=RMVP

YES yes · Answer

hi!   actually yes, it seems it is a software issue.... maybe you can try booting into safemode, (hit F8 at the dell logo, and then select the option the says safemode, and then select the administrtator option, then you can run system restore i think it would work, you can try that..) how old is your computer?

frickin stop error. I spent about an hour troubleshooting that same one tdoay. Or was that yesterday now. Ended up narrowing it down to the NIC driver. What a flippin pain.

Glad you got yours solved so easily :)
