BSOD: kernal_data_inpage_error

[Chuck]

I have had a problem start just recently. Often when
I open windows explorer and then click on a drive icon or
on "My Computer" the computer waits a few seconds and
then the hard drive light comes on and within a minute or
so I get a BSOD titled "kernal_data_inpage_error". It
tells me it is starting a "memory dump" after about 2 or
3 minutes then drive light will go out and my monitor
will suspend - as if I was shutting down the system. The
computer doesn't completly shut off it just sits there. I
have to turn it off and restart it to continue working.
I am running XP with all applicable updates that are
available via Windows Update Site. My hard-drive is
formatted to NTFS. I have not changed any programs or
updated any drivers recently.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

0x0000007A: KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR
(Click to consult the online Win XP Resource Kit article, or see Windows
2000 Professional Resource Kit, p. 1553.)
A page of kernel data was not found in the pagefile and could not be read
into memory. This might be due to incompatible disk or controller drivers,
firmware, or hardware

Stop 0x0000007A or KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR---This error may be due to an
incompatible disk or controller drivers or hardware problems. Run the
windows XP check disk utility or use a more comprehensive disk utility
obtained from the disk manufacturer.
