Kind of a misleading error, huh?  Actually one of the common causes is bad RAM.  Do you have known good RAM that you can test in the system?

You can also get a free bootdisk-based tester from http://www.simmtester.com

But, it's been known to be caused by other faulty hardware as well.  What's the hex-code you're getting?

Wow - less than 15 mins, huh?  Did you get the hex-code from the error?
Have you installed new hardware lately?

You may also try recreating your pagefile:

Click Start->Run->SysDM.CPL
Advanced tab/Settings (under Performance)
Advanced tab/Change (under Virtural Memory
Select "No Paging File" on all drives that currently list one and click set.
Reboot

Repeat above but this time set the Custom Size, both initial and maximum to the recommended size listed at the bottom.
Reboot.

Do you have the min/max as the same or is it system-managed?

Are you using Norton Internet Security?  If so, try removing and readding it.

I have since been playing with jumper settings on my board and have found a stable combination, it all had to do with pci/ram/cpu timings. i am now running my 350 at 427 using 95mhz cpu, 90mhz ram, 4.5x, with a /3 pci mutiplier (or divider i guess). cpu temp is good, although the bios says its around 140F i know it isnt since its very cool to the touch. Oh, i had also purchased a larger fan for the cpu as i was only running the large heatsink alone before. all seems to be good. FYI, i have also turfed NIS and am running the NAV by itself. But this change was before i changed jumpers and it didnt help at all.

points are yours for all the work you did and your excellent ideas even if they werent the ultimate solutions. Thanks for your help.

FYI----The above problem was ultimately caused by RAM! I d/l'd and used AIDA32 to determine ram timings and m/b specs. As it turns out, the m/b im using will only support ram with a 60-70ns timing. Only 1 of the 2 128mb dimms that i was using had that timing profile. Once it was removed and I installed an old 64mb dimm with the same timing, things have been smooth sailing with no blue screens! Unless of course i try and boost the cpu above 400mhz. The m/b also only supports up to 400mhz. I have reconfigured my jumpers back to the 100mhz x 4.0 at 2.5Vcore. This seems to be a VERY reliable setting and the SiSoft figures i got were a large jump from that of the 350mhz. Anyway, thanks again for all your help!

Thank YOU for posting that.
I've found bad RAM to be a culprit for many things, but this one seemed to point elsewhere.
Glad you got it working!!
