"blue screen of death"



I got a new dell laptop, Inspiron 2200 and within about the first 2 weeks a
screen would randomly pop up saying "beginning of physical memory dump,
physical memory dump complete". I contacted Dell who was no help! A friend
said to restore my computer to the earliest date, reinstall the software I
had on it, and then continue to do microsoft updates. Am I in the clear?!?!
