Error Signature codes

Is there any way to find out what the Windows error codes are ?

I just had a PC reboot itself, then fail to load WinXP SP3 with a blue
screen :
(twice, mentioning "Device driver NV4_Disp has stuck in an infinite loop"
etc.which I assumed was a video card driver)

I managed, eventually to get into Windows, and downloaded/install the
latest drivers for the video card.

So far the PC has booted OK 6 times, but I did get a pop up with:
"Windows has recovered from a major fault" etc.

The error signature is :
BCCode: 100000ea BCP1:8B27B290 BCP2:8B2AA4C0 BCP3:BA4E7CBC
BCP4:00000001 OSVer:5_1_2600 SP:3_0 Product:768_1

Does Windows generate a readable report, and hide it somewhere within the
OS ?

TIA for any help

Background information on Stop Error message
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms797149.aspx

A device driver problem has caused the system to pause indefinitely
(hang). Typically, this is caused by a display driver waiting for the
video hardware to enter an idle state. This might indicate a hardware
problem with the video adapter, or a faulty video driver.

Why is it that MVP don't even know what day it is today? Are they so stupid?

mean something to the MS engineers. In your case, I searched on: BCCode:

to your particular video display adapter, the information it contains would
have lead you to take the corrective action that you figured out on your
own.
