I have recently had the following error message:

osver: 5_1_2600 SP: 2_0 Product: 256_1
I have had the PC for over a year and had no problems. Have tried resetting
the PC back to factory settings and used the restore option in windows. PC is
fairly meaty and I have never had issues running any hardware or software, no
software or hardware added recently except the windows updates.
Any advice would be appriciated, really don't want to flatten it and
re-build, especially if its a hardware problem.
I agree with Nass - the most likely cause of your problem is hardware.
Parameter 1 (bcp1) indicates that the specific error was a Double
Fault. The following information is from
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms795478.aspx
"0x00000008, or Double Fault, is when an exception occurs while trying
to call the handler for a prior exception. Normally, the two
exceptions can be handled serially. However, there are several
exceptions that cannot be handled serially, and in this situation the
processor signals a double fault. There are two common causes of a
double fault:
1. A kernel stack overflow. This occurs when a guard page is hit, and
then the kernel tries to push a trap frame. Since there is no stack
left, a stack overflow results, causing the double fault. If you
suspect this has occurred, use the !thread debugger extension to
determine the stack limits, and then use the kb (Display Stack
Backtrace) debugger command with a large parameter (for example, kb
100) to display the full stack.
2. A hardware problem.
Good luck
