Default XP won't start... BSOD

Check below. Scroll down to 7E.

I have a Dell Dimension 8250 with Windows XP installed. While browsing a
streaming video site, I received an IE error message saying that Internet
Explorer has encountered a problem and will shut down. After logging back
in
to IE, it happened again so I did a re-start. On restart, I received
startup
message: we apologize for the inconvenience but windows did not shut down
properly and the normal full screen explanation. I just powered down as I
have done before but got the message again followed by the bsod. The
technical information I received was as follows:



stop: 0x0000007E (0XC0000005, 0XF75A03C0, 0XF7A3852C, 0XF7A38228)

Atapi.sys - Address F75A03C0 base at F758A000, Datestamp 41107b4d



Thinking it might be a virus from the internet site, I ran Avira Antivirus
Rescue Software but it only came back with minor issues which didn't allow
me
to see the definitions. I then booted to my installation cd, went into
repair
and did a chkdsk. I also did bootcfg /scan which identified 1 Windows
install
and a bootcfg /list which indicated that Microsoft Windows XP WAS LOCATED
AT
c:\windows with load options /fastdetect /noexecute=optin. I have
considered
doing an in-place upgrade but I fear that it might cause me to lose
valuable
files I need for my business. I will also be disconnecting some of my
hardware devices and try to reboot also.



If anyone can suggest the proper troubleshooting procedures to help me
determine my problem, it would be greatly appreciated.
