Recently, when I reboot, I am greeted by the XP blue screen of death. Error message resembles 'A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage.." I am told to check available disk space (using ~30%), drivers, and BIOS (haven't checked BIOS yet). For drivers I am told the check the 'Stop' line which begins 0X0000008E.
I can get the PC back up by seelcting the most recent good configuration.
How do I find what is causing this error?
Research your Stop Error here:

OK, one file listed is wuauclt.exe - Windows update. Is it safe to rename this file so it won't load on startup? Want to see if this is the culprit.
Are you the original poster? I wouldn't mess with the Windows Update file. It is extremely unlikely to be the one causing the problem. Much more likely is that you have a bad driver or bad hardware. Did you research the Stop Error? What were the results? Have you added any hardware or software, updated any drivers lately?

Yup, original.
I have been to aumha and started tracking the info they suggest. I'll get back later this AM.
