More info?)
Type verifier in Start Run, follow the wizard but choose All Drivers. This will slow down your computer and cause more blue screen crashes but will pinpoint what is causing the crash (if the original error message didn't). Once you fix it you rerun verifier and turn it off.
If you can't start after enabling verifier
choose Last Known Good Configuration at the Failed Boot menu (which will
start without verifier).
You will be creating a crash dump file in c:\windows\minidump every blue screen. Make sure you are set to record minidumps (Small Memory Dumps) - type it in Help to see how.
Then
If you have the XP SP2 Security Update CD (else see
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/symbolpkg.mspx
)
Install symbols from <CD Drive Letter>:\SUPPORT\SYMBOLS
Download
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/installx86.mspx
Load the crash dump file into windbg
and read what it says. You may need to tell it where the symbols are. Read it.
Type
!Analyze -v
into Windbg's command line.
(this will hopefully tell you the faulty component)
You can look up specific details here

If it indicates faulty memory might be the cause you can get a memory tester
here
http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp
If it mentions a core windows system file, meaning it a MS fix is required,
upload a minidump to
http://oca.microsoft.com
Also try typing the main error code in Help while online (ie,
Stop 0x50
and also try in the 8 digit form
stop 0x00000050)
and if there are too many hits use a filename if available. Generally memory
addresses are different for each computer (as each computer has a different
mix of drivers) so parameters that are memory addresses aren't that useful for searching, but NTStatus codes are (plus you can look them up here http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/mingw/w32api/include/ddk/ntstatus.h?rev=1.2).
