If you're not running out of hard drive space, it's typically either BIOS needs updating or Video driver needs updating.

From event viewer, see this. The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x0000008e (0xc0000005, 0x82c43d32, 0xba1f67b8, 0x00000000).

saw some links online, haven't try out yet as no access to the machine till few days later. the same machine was working fine under window xp. the problem occurs only when reformat the machine to windows 7, 32 bit.

You need to update your drivers to Vista or higher compatibility.

8e is the same as 1000008e.

Check in this order

1) Available hard drive space.
2) Available BIOS updates from computer or motherboard manufacturer.
3) Available Video driver updates from computer manufacturer (do NOT install video driver updates from Windows Update 'optional' updates; right-click them and choose 'hide' instead)... from video card manufacturer if home built or no-name computer.

hmm.. under the device manager, there is no error seen for drivers out of date. the drivers for the motherboard is actually all installed after just installing windows 7. The drivers available from the motherboard website is of a lower version.
