Mine does that sometimes too, it comes up with this blue screen (like the one buck posted) saying "beginning dump of memory" or something like that, then restarts. It's completely random, not just when I'm using certain programs. I know it's not a virus, and I've heard of many XP users having this problem, yet no one seems to know how to stop it from doing this.

Buckeh, change your boot settings to boot from CD
then start your comp with your Win (XP, ME whatever) your Win CD in.

Pretty much what comes next is easy, except if you want to create partitions.

just boot from your CD and all will work out

happens to me sometimes too ... no big deal. probably heat, but might not be ... i also get an acpi error (im pretty sure). next time it happens check the event list (if you dont know where it s in the control panel / admin tools / event viewer). im not sure how to correct it. ive also seen that irq message too, sometimes when im setting up windows. not sure how to correct it either. when i see it during setup i normally set the bios to load defaults and it works out. i also unplug everything usb ...
