 need to upgrade your RAM. Be sure to check your computer manufacturer’s website to see what the maximum amount of RAM that your motherboard can hold before you upgrade.
STOP 0x000000EA or THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER - A device driver problem is causing the system to pause indefinitely. Typically, this problem is caused by a display driver waiting for the video hardware to enter an idle state. This usually means that there is a hardware problem with the video adapter or a faulty video driver. I would start by going to your computer’s manufacturer website to install the latest video driver. If you have a video card then visit the website of the manufacturer that made your video driver and install the latest video driver.
STOP 0x000000ED or UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME - The kernel mode I/O subsystem attempted to mount the boot volume and it failed. Make sure your ATA cable is the correct one for your computer. For example, if you need an 80pin cable don’t replace it with a 80 pin cable.
STOP 0xC0000221 or STATUS_IMAGE_CHECKSUM_MISMATCH - This Stop message indicates driver, system file, or disk corruption problems (such as a damaged paging file). Faulty memory hardware can also cause this Stop message to appear. I would start with a System Restore or Drive Rollback to restore a previous driver. You can also use one of the recovery features that come on the Windows CD to restore the Windows files to the way they are supposed to be.
