Running Intel 2.0 processor, Win XP Pro, 512 DDR 2700
RAM,all of a sudden computer starts rebooting constantly
and will not stop. Finally the "BLUE SCREEN of DEATH"
shows its ugly face. All I can get is
MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION has occured then it disappears.
I have tried everything I know, different RAM, Re-format
and reload,I even tried reloading 2000 Pro. I still get
same thing. Anyone have any ideas let me know this is
frying my brain.Had to steal kids PC to send this email.

How old is the machine. It may still be under warranty. If it is not to
old then you may call support if they have it from where you purchased the
machine or even return it.
