I am running windows 2000 I have over 500 MB of memory and I left my computer running last night downloading songs and when I got up it was still going then I rebooted it it gave me for the first time I ever saw this kind of message was a blus screen with a message........ Begining dumping physical memory...[second line] Dumping physical memory to disk : then started to count up to 1 to 100 then it rebooted.... Anyone have any idea what this was I have never saw this kind of thing happen ever before my 10 years of messing with computers.???? Would appreciate any help in this matter .

The dumping physical memory is refering to the information about the crash. What is happening when it counts up to 100 like that is its taking the information out of the physical memory and writing it to a log file on your hard drive. The file will be called something like user1.dmp if you want to look through it. It will tell you what the cause of the crash was. If you're not interested then dont wait for it to count to 100 just restart the computer manualy.
