I have visited the Dell website, and checked all my drivers. The driver for
my Intel graphics controller was out of date. I have upgraded it, but still
the problem persists. Any suggestions?

Conflicts can still exist, eg 'interrupt'
Visit your sys manu site and check on the bios updates, and driver updates

No, I don't have a video card, I use onboard graphics, as my machine was
only
entry-level when i bought it. My Ethernet port is also based on the
motherboard, although the Wireless adaptor I use when at home (when the
problem doest not occur) is a separate PCI card.

The stop can also be as a result of vid driver or vid conflict.
perhaps there is a conflict between vid card and lan card?

Hello, forgive me if this is not in the correct category, but my
problem
spans a number of areas.

I am running a Dell Dimension 2400 machine. It is a celeron 2.6g with
1GB
ram. I have also added three extra internal IDE HDDs. As my
motherboard
did
not have spare IDE ports, I installed a raid card to allow me to
connect
up
to 4 additional IDE devices, to which I have connected my three
additional
HDDs (note: the C drive is still connected to the motherboard direct).
I
have not used a raid configuration on my drives as I do not know what
one
is,
or how to go about configuring it.

All was well until January when I installed Microsoft Office
Professional
2003, when the computer began to stop randomly displaying the classic
Windows
blue screen with a STOP 0x000000B8 message. It took me a while to
figure
out
what was causing it, during which time I formatted my C and
re-installed
windows. However, as soon as I installed Office again, the problem
started.

By googling the error message STOP 0x000000B8 I came accross this
site:


http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/exchange2003/exchange_2003_clustering.htm
(about 2 thirds of the way down the page) which suggested that the
problem
was related to the Exchange 2003 component which is bundled with
Office
2003
i believe. However, it refers to it in relation to running an e-mail
server
which I am not doing.

Interestingly, the problem only seems to occur when I am at university
and
connecting to the net through the university LAN. When I am at home
in
the
holidays, connecting to the net through my wireless network within my
home,
the problem does not present itself.

If anyone could offer any assistance, or even suggest somewhere I
might
find
a 'cure', then it would me much appreciated.

Regards,






.
