Don't know if anyone mentioned this before, but have you started in safe mode? That should tell you if driver is the problem.

PC reboots or restarts like the one you describe and most commonly caused by a PSU on its way out. The PSU is unable to constantly supply the voltage rails and therefore when it dips the pc assumes you have hit the reset button and restarts. Cheap replacement and it will fix your problem
A similar prob is caused by overloading a power board although it just re boots not the blue error screen.
I'd be starting by making sure I had the latest video drivers, the first BSD you posted seems to relate to the video driver.

I've been mucking around with it today...it keeps crashing. I went through the event viewer and checked for errors...there are heaps. A bloke I know is coming out tomorrow to have a look. He doesn't think it's something that can't be fixed. So fingers crossed...hopefully should be sorted tomorrow..
Thanks again to all for your help!!:)
Depending on the age of your machine I have found mine seems to have improved no end after changing the memory setting in the bios from pc100 to pc133.
And I thought my computer was old.:DQuote:

Good week for junk off the street.
The old P4 came with 512mb ram. Pity it was only 133.
