Error: 0x00000027 (0xBAAD009C, 0xF81W0500, OxF81E0200, 0xF7E4C144)

[Matt]

Grrr... I was experiencing problems with a game, so I was
told to download something that would optomize my RAM.

I went to Download.com, an official website that I wasn't
afraid to get virus' from. Put in "RAM" int he search and
downloaded an XP program for doing the job I needed to be
done.

I installed and looked.. it showed that I had plenty of
RAM. So I was like "OK, but let's see what it recommends"

I clicked recommend and it checked some boxes... it told
me to restart and I did. Now WHen I boot up windows it
give me a few "Can not start blhblah" error messages, and
then a blue screen comes up giving me these numbers.

0x00000027 (0xBAAD009C, 0xF81W0500, OxF81E0200, 0xF7E4C144)

Tried to fix it, everything I did failed miserably.. I
need help desperately.

Help! Heh

Uh... which ones? And, were they for Windows XP?

The "blah blah" might be helpful, but you've given the core information.
Unfortunately, this isn't a very common error in real life, although some
kinds of memory management problems can trigger it. To see how technical it
is, here is the main technical description:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/ddtools/hh/ddtools/bccodes_9uzr.asp

MSKB 290185 gives the following recommendation for addressing this problem
in Windows 2000, and the essential method may apply to Windows XP:
1.. Disable all file system filter drivers, such as backup utilities,
virus scanners, or CD-R/W drivers.
2.. Check the file properties of the Rdr.sys file to verify that the
properties match the current version of the operating system or service
pack.
3.. Update all hard disk, tape backup, CD-ROM or CD-R/W, or removable
media device drivers to the latest version of the drivers. To obtain the
latest version of a driver, contact the device manufacture.
But in Windows XP, start out by doing a System Restore to just before you
made all the changes. If that doesn't work, then try the steps I just
quoted.
