Hi Chris,

I have just installed XP Home Edition on a new PC, and am experiencing
random crashes. The event log shows an identical message to the one you
were talking about:

The interesting thing is that I have NOT installed SP2.

Unfortunately, when I try your fix:

I find no "Local Security Policy" under Control Panel/Administrative
Tools!

Actually, I suspect this d**n .Net Framework thing. I wouldn't have
installed it, but it comes with my scanner, an HP ScanJet 4070. After I
install the scanner, I get a Log on screen when I start Windows, asking
me to choose a user account - but only my own account is showing. When
I sought a solution so that I didn't have to go through this step every
time I boot, I was told to de-activate the user ASPNET. This I have
done, but is it possible to get rid of .NET Framework altogether? I
really don't need it, and honestly can't imagine why I would, but HP
insist on installing it so that their automatic update will work.

What can I do now to stop these crashes? I'm getting really frustrated
here. Hope you can point me in the right direction. Thank you in
advance.

Cheers,
Geoff
