Error 0x00000001. I've reset the Virtual memory and that did not seem to help but for some reason I do think it is in this area that my problem lies. If anyone has any ideas what I can check please let me know.

It would be helpful to know more about the machine, e.g., the type and amount of memory, the type of Video card, and the power supply, etc. Also, has it always done this or only recently and had you installed some program after which this problem surfaced?
This board was touted as a overclockers board. Has it been overclocked? In any event, taking a wild stab in the dark, it sounds a lot like heat issues. Either the heatsink and fan are not seated well or the memory railing portion of the motherboard is overheating. Check to see if the heatsink is making full contact and whether the power supply is high enough to be feeding the proper voltage.

MotherBoard is P4PE 1.xx Memory is Muskin PC 2100 two sticks at 512
Award Bios Rev. 1002 Video card is G3 Titanium 500
CPU Speed is 2.40 Two WD 800 JB00cra1 hdd’s
CPU Temp is max of 125.5
CPU Fan speed is 4470 to 4655
Motherboard temp max is 91
Power supply is Whisper Enermax 365 wattage
Power fan speed is 2481/2537
I don’t think I had installed any program just previous to the problem starting about 2 weeks ago. I have not over clocked the system. Please note the temp. of the motherboard and CPU. I don’t know if those are in the proper range of operation. These readings were taken from the Bios option for monitoring the temp. I don’t not have any way to monitor the temp on the video card. PC Nut built this system for me to my specs about 1 ½ years ago. I hope I’ve answered all of your questions. If not please let me know what else I can answer.
Thanks
