Hi

This problem occurs because after a Minidump (or memory
dump) file is written, the paging file continues to have a
flag set that indicates that a memory dump file needs to
be written.
First Use Windows Update to download the System Recovered
Error Message Update as mentioned in the link below.
1. Connect to the Internet.
2. Open Windows Update.
· On the Windows® XP default Start menu, point to
All Programs, and then click Windows Update.
· On the classic Start menu, point to Programs, and
then click Windows Update.
Note: If Windows Update is not found on the Start menu, on
the Start menu, click Run. In the Run dialog box, type:
Wupdmgr.exe. Click OK.
Note: The first time the Windows Update Web site is used,
you may be prompted to install required software or
controls. Click Yes for each of these.
3. After the Web browser page has completely loaded,
click Scan for updates.
4. After the Web browser page has completely loaded,
click Review and install updates.
5. There may be several items to install. You can
install all of them, which may take quite some time to
download, or you can remove the unwanted items by clicking
Remove. To resolve this specific issue, the System
Recovered Error Message Update must be installed. The file
is 2.8 megabytes (MB) in size.
6. After the desired items are listed on the Total
Selected Updates page, click Install Now.
7. In the Microsoft Windows Update dialog box, click
Accept.
8. In the Microsoft Internet Explorer dialog box,
click OK to restart the computer.
Also please visit the following site regarding the
download. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?
