Return to stability. MemTest86 showed bad RAM. Although each 512mb stick
tested OK by themselves, together they failed. New RAM & tested OK.
As for the CDROMS - see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 314060. However,
after applying the KB fix, you need to reload any burning programs. I still
don't know exactly what caused the fault, SP2 or something else.
