Can you use your PC at all? If so, update all the drivers and check for warnings in the device manager. If not, then run the XP repair utility.

yea the comp can be run. wats the cause of this error?

It looks like you're recieving a BSOD or Blue Screen Of Death error. This happens when the operating system doesn't have an error handling routine to deal with the error. Because it says a driver is responsible there are a few things you can check. Think back to when this started and try to remember if you installed ANY new software or updates. This could be causing the problem. Also try to remember if you uninstalled any software because this too could cause the problem. Another thing you can do is check in Start/Control Panel/System/Device manager and see if there are any "!" next to a hardware device (perhaps the video driver or motherboard drivers). If there is a problem that wasn't there before you could rollback to the previous drivers (in XP and ME). THis is usually caused by a corrupted dll file or driver. Hope this helps and good luck with it.

most BSODs are caused by faulty memory, so check that too with memtest.
