Have you tried booting into safe mode and checking event viewer and the minidump ?

In Windows HELP, click Index, then type

dmp files

Then click 'Display' button.
That will give information about dump files, like so called minidump.

All that is rather useless because the data in dump files is for Advanced Users

Minidump Files

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...
In that article it says
Microsoft® Office XP and Windows® XP create minidump files for the purpose of analyzing failures on customers' computers.

It is used by technical people to find causes of problems.

NOTE
I have just done a Web Search for
dxec01.sys

Your computer may be infected with Malware, Virus or
Spyware, called Vundo

dxec01.sys is a driver file used by Vundo.
