I am using a Medion computer with Windowa XP Home.  The computer has started to crash and then restart itself.  Microsoft tells me this is being caused
by a corrupted driver.

Here is the error message I receive.

Stop: 0X0000008E (0XC0000005, 0X804F2890, 0XB9CC47E0, 0X00000000)

Followed by this message:

Beginning dump of physical memory
Physical memory dump completed

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

What about some specs on the machine? Has it always been this way? WHen did it start? Have you updated any DRIVERS lately? Any problems in Device Manager?Thanks for your interest.  This is a 2002 German made Medion PC, Model AWRDACPI, x86 Family 15 Model 2, with 2673 Mhz processor.  It has Phoenix Technologies bios, version 2.3.

The PROBLEM started about 2 months ago, and has steadily GOTTEN worse.  I have not updated any drivers lately, and no problem is indicated in Device Manager.

zolasueHave you or can you locate the drivers on their website and update them?Yesterday, I located a Medion website in the UK from which I downloaded and installed all available updated drivers for my
model computer.  Since then, I have had no more crashes, so am hopeful the problem is solved.

Thanks for your input.

ZolasueI'm glad that fixed you up. Be SURE and burn all of those drivers to a CD if you ever need to reinstall.
