    blue screen of death

    Everytime I'm in the middle of something my computer crashes. I get this error, does anyone know what is causing it? I'm guessing hardware, I just dont know what.

    upgrade to xp, you will never get BSOD, xp will just automatically close the program heh.

    Often times I wonder why
    There's love and hate, theres live or die.
    When sickness comes I must decide:
    When feelings go, theres suicide.

              Its a Dell. Its only about a year old, been doing this for about 6 months. Dells customer support is no help at all because they do not speak english. The harddrive makes weird noises sometimes so I figured it may have something to do with that? I also thought it may be the RAM
              what?!

                  if you're getting errors like that in XP..you need a new pc..xp may be shitty..but it doesnt do that unless it was touched as a child, now it has real problems and flips out from time to time

                      checkwith the memory first. most generic memory chips do this. i had the same issue until i replaced the chip with 2 crucial rams. since your on a dell you need to make sure they dont use thier own brands like compaq does or use to do.

                          Drop the rror message in Deja.com. I had a similiar problem recently with a video machine. It was a bad disk.

                                I've had errors like that on XP home and it was caused by some software that was installed. I removed my last few installs and i never got the error again.
                                So your error might not be hardware, but software.
                                Have you tried using the system restore?

                                    Page dumps in a system like XP or Linux usually suggest bad memory.

                                    Try replacing your RAM.

                                      SIGSEGV (Signal 11/Segmentation fault) on Linux/BSD are not often caused by "bad memory" they're often caused by programs referencing an address that has been previously free()'d or sometimes just a call to an area of memory that does not exist. You should check the program, before you run off to swap ram !

                                      Sometimes when crackers use scripts to exploit a program they use the wrong area of memory to pass their shellcode (executable code ) that can cause segmentation faults too, so you should check for possible kiddie activity.

                                            Segmentation faults (or core dumps) are not the same as page dumps. A segfault is when an application attempts to access restricted memory.

                                            A page dump is when the kernel crashes and dumps it's pages. In Linux it's a kernel panic.. in Windows (NT/2K/XP) it's the BSOD.
