Have you made any recent hardware changes? How many RAM sticks make up
your installed memory?
Have you backed up important data files? This needs to be done before
you start trying to fix the problem. Do you have access to a second
computer where you might be able to install the drive from the problem
computer as a second slave drive?
What is the computer make and model?
What precisely is your system CD?
Try running HD Tune(freeware).
Download and run it and see what it turns up.

Information Reports or Duplicates please. Indicate which also appear in
a previous boot.

of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description
are important.
A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event
Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from
Event Viewer.
Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on
the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties,
Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code?
Dust inside the computer casing can cause overheating and result in this
type of error. Take the casing off and use an Air Duster to clean. Also
check that all fans are working.
