I am using windows XP, CPU: 3.2, memory: 1.5GB, HD: Western. I alwasy got this screen when I am using my computer for a while (like 10-15 minutes). I just built this computer last week. There is something wrong, but I don't know where I fix it. Please help.

google for "memtest 86", run that, it will tell you if your RAM is bad

I did a google search on the error #'s. Everything I found said it was caused by a program called GoBack (a system restore utility) AAre you using, or have you installed GoBack? If you're not running GoBack, run Memtest86 as ccb056 recommended. I personally think it is a BIOPS setting. If it shuts down after 10-15 minutes, it makes me think you either have the memory timing or the CPU timing set wrong.. causes something to overheat and shutdown. Verify all your timings in BIOS.

Okay, here's the breakdown... Windows is trying to make an image of a computer like it does everyday and it looks like it tried doing it when you were playing your game.. This would cause the computer to overload and cause windows to shut down so your system dosen't suffer and physical damage. Check your times for the system restore updates and changed the to when you are not using you computer (ie. 3am)
