I recently reinstalled windows just to get things running smoothly again. Over the past couple of days I have been getting spontaneous restarts. The system will just reboot and go back into windows. I tried going into My Computer's properties and turning off 'automatic restart'. Tonight, I got a blue screen with a whole lot of jarble about a physical memory dump, and what have you. Here is what it said under "Technical Info" Stop: 0X0000007E (0XC0000005, 0XF83bf758, OXF8961B80, OXF8961880) ntfs.sys - Address F83BF758 base at F83BF000 Date Stamp 3B7DC5D0 I thought it might be a problem with my display drivers, so I updated them from the NVidia website. So far I havn't had another problem, but I've only been running for 20 minutes. Is there anything else that could cause this problem? I had random restarts a few months ago but that was attributed to my RAM going bad. It eventually just rebooted in a continous loop. When I replaced the ram it was fine, and trying the bad RAM in another comp produced the same results. So this isn't the RAM this time. Here are my specs: Cpu: AMD 1600+ (Thermaltake Volcano 9 Cooling) Mobo: Gigabyte GA-7VTXH+ ATX KT266A (Onboard Sound + Lan) Memory: 512 MB DDR 2700 Video: GeForce 2 MX400 64MB HDD: Western Digital 40GB then DVD, CD-RW.. etc. I am running Windows XP Pro, without the service pack(s)

Top right of this page is a search function, search for "ntfs.sys error" in "Win XP".

Hi Nathan, hey Hooner, STOP messages Select ntfs filesystem on the left Then scroll down until you see the memory-address 0x0000007E.
