Background information on Stop Error report:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms794023.aspx

A kernel mode program generated an exception which the error handler
didn't catch. These are nearly always hardware compatibility issues
(which sometimes means a driver issue or a need for a BIOS upgrade).
http://aumha.org/a/stop.htm

Has there been any use of remote control software to maintain, update or
service this computer. Is the laptop used for work as well as pleasure?

What is your Windows XP CD as it is described on the face of the CD?

What is your computer make and model? How old is it?

Hope this helps.

Gerry,

my machine is a custom built.

asus p5n32-sli se deluxe mobo
Kingston 2 * 1GB ram
WD SATA 250GB HDD
Intel core 2 duo E6600
XFX geforce 6800gt

My windows XP Pro cd is part of the MS Action pack.

This machine is a desktop used at home for mostly office applications.

It is about 1 1/2 years old.

Uninstall your HP Printer and then run a check on your RAM and on the HDD.
Run Disk Clean up and Defrag in Safe Mode, try to monitor the Event Viewer
for error and check other Devices in the Device Manager for Conflict or
Malfunctioning.
If all goes okay without errors then the Printer driver was corrupt/damaged
and causing the issue to arise and you need to download the latest driver
for it from HP site.
This can happen if the system overheated or a Bad RAM, Motherboard going
Nuts or a BIOS outdated.
HTH.

I would try Start, Run, type "sfc /scannow" without quotes
and hit Enter.

Description of Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 System
File Checker (Sfc.exe)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;310747

You will need your CD.

Try Start, Run, type "sigverif.exe" without quotes and hit OK. What
drivers are listed as unsigned? Disregard those which are not checked.

I am wondering whether you left behind a bit og logmein when you
uninstalled?

That reference is to a Digital Imager i.e, scanner not a printer,

Hi Gerry,
Yes, it is for HP Digital Imaging, and it could be ALL-In-One HP Printer as
you mentioned, located here:
C:\Program Files\HP\Digital Imaging\bin\hpqSTE08.exe
The OP need to take OFF from the Start Up List or uninstall and Reinstall it.
HTH and Happy Xmas.

Hi all,

Last post before xmas.

I uninstalled everything to do with the printer which is an HP.

I left the machine run for over a day and everything work fine.

I downloaded the plain printer driver fom HP again and reinstalled. am now
waiting and hoping.

Hopefully this was the problem.

Will keep you posted

Happy Christmas and thanks for all the help so far.

Enjoy your Xmas Nass. I hear it was very foggy earlier today in London.
Hope it's fine Xmas morning as I am travelling down to Wimbledon to
visit my youngest daughter. You do not get smog like we saw in the 40's
and 50's now.

Hi Gerry,
Yes, it is Foggy, we may see the white stuff/fluffy ones :-) . Oh lord, that
before the clean Power came to age Gerry LOL.
Hope you have a nice drive down south and enjoy your Xmas whatever the
weather.
Season Greetings to you and All.

Hi all,

Happy new year.

Basically I ended up uninstalling the HP printer driver, spysweerer and
cloudmark antispam and firefox.

I slowly added back the printer driver after reinstalling firefox and have
been running to today without a crash.

I am going to add spysweeper back today.
I will take baby steps.

Atleast we seem to have found what it was.

UPDATE:

On sunday 12/30 the machine gave up all together and crashed with a
system.drv was corrupted error.

I went into windows recovery console and restored the file from disk.

The machine came up fine.

Does anyone know what wpdmtpDriver is?? there is an entry in event log for
it.

Happy New Years,

Dominic
