Win 7 0x0000008E error

I have just booted up my emergency computer which I haven't used for
many months.
It booted up fine and I used Slimdrivers which reported that all drivers
were up to date.
I then downloaded Windows Updates and clicked to install.
The computer prepared to install but hung for about 10 minutes and then
I got the BSOD with error
STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x82ACF829, 0xA37B326C, 0x00000000)
This has happened twice.
I have googled the error but the specific error doesn't come up.
Anyone help please?
Many thanks

0x8E KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

And 0xC0000005 is an access violation (the code is writing
some place where it does not have permission - like trying
to modify its own code maybe).

https://web.archive.org/web/20081220.../ms794023.aspx

The article makes an example of an NVidia
video card driver.

It's much better in cases like that, if the .dmp reports
a certain driver is responsible, rather than a more general
report about the kernel. If there is a driver name,
that helps a lot.

Many thanks for this.
In the list of Windows Updates it does say there is an update for the
Nvidia video card driver.
Shall I just try and download and install this update (without the other
updates) or is it more complicated than that.
Thanks again

Generally, the people here would tell you to go to Nvidia
and get the driver (geforce.com).

The record on Windows Update Nvidia drivers, isn't
quite as good.

And when I suggested the video driver, it's mere;y
a "high runner". It's better if you see "nv" kinda
driver blamed for the event, as then you know there is
a strong chance another video driver may change the
symptoms.

If you randomly change drivers without any evidence,
you could be changing software for weeks, trying to
fix it.
