Blue screen of death internal power error
Hi all,
I have the following message on my Dell Inspiron 1100 laptop.
STOP 0X00000A0 (0X00000101, 0X00000007, 0XF97257A4, 0X00000000)
INTERNAL POWER ERROR.
Everything was working ok. I installed some new memory and still everything was ok then this morning this message came up. I have put the old memory back in but it still happens. Sometimes I can boot in safe mode and I have tried in selective mode but not got anywhere yet.
Any help woul dbe great as i use it for my business and dont have another machine so I need to get it fixed quickly.

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Also, If you have important data on the hard drive, I'd either back up that data from the drive, or not use the drive until the system checks out fine. You can hook up the drive to a working computer to retrieve needed data.

I would try unplugging all of those devices to see if it continues..If it doesn't, plug in one at a time till it does. Also, try updating your device drivers and the usb/chipset driver for the motherboard "
