That can be a tough one, here are a few links you can check out from the Microsoft Knowledge Database that might help. General Protection Faults and Fatal Exception errors are often caused by programs trying to take memory that's already allocated to other programs, Fatal Exceptions often by two programs not getting along.

Troubleshooting Start Up Problems (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q188/8/67.asp) might help,
What are Fatal Exception Errors (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q150/3/14.asp?LN=EN-US&SD=gn&FR=0)
Fatal Exception OE has Occurred (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q189/6/55.ASP?LN=EN-US&SD=gn&FR=0) (Might not be your exact error message, but could help.)

Hope something in all that can help...

You don't say if your running Windows 95/98 or Windows NT/2000. In any case a blue screen of death (BSOD) can be caused by drivers that Windows is trying to load at startup. Do you have any programs that you startup with the operating system? Such as cd burner software? Or do you have a NIC card? I hope you sort of get the idea. You could try reinstalling these drivers/programs or disabling them from starting up at boot time. Then reinable (is that a word???) them one at a time till you find the "bad boy". Blue screens are hard to figure out, but not impossible.

Also another thing to think about. Did you start having this problem after you installed some new software\hardware? Try unistalling it and see if your BSOD goes away.

I think it's re-enable... hehe. But I kinda like reinable.

Well, This is a vague discription that can be numerous problems. Please explain what version of software you are using. Please describe the hardware that you are using....and please describe any and all software that you added to the computer since it worked correctly last. Also, give any and all hardware additions since it worked correctly last. And give information as to whether you played or moved anything inside the computer. If no hardware has been moved, and you havent added any hardware , then it could be a set-up problem, or the most sneaky and often the cause of problems, the IRQ conflict. The first thing that you should do is 1) the next time your computer boots up, go to the start button, then the settings button on the menu, then the control panel, then the system icon which you double click on and then look in the device manager for any errors or ? or red marks on the little icons. If you got some, then this tells you the hardware has a set up problem. Also, if you double click on the computer icon at the top, it will show you the irq settings, and will show you if you have an irq problem.
After doing that, then write back with information as to what you have found, and we can further help you with the problem clearly defined. Sincerely, Dave S

I have had a bad video card give the same symptoms, and memory did it also. The memory problems on a couple of boards was remedied just by moving the bus speed to the next lower setting. As others have noted, it can be many things that cause this.
