Egads! I'm too swamped to crack back into my HTPC for troubleshooting. Bottom line, everything was yanked out, back to MOBO, same RAM cards, no audio/vid/TV card. Changed from MCE (v1.0 actually) to XP Pro etc. Same old problem of multiple various codes after BSOD. AND after two years, still only happens about 3-4 hours into use (now just of of mediaplayer, only software loaded). I think I used to have heat issues, and I think now RAM or something is on the shizzle from heat damage. I have new job, new baby, other new hobbies and can't spend the time I used to further troubleshoot (RAM swap, etc.) But instead need a good know-it-all I can pay. And not the local BestBuy of course (my wife's recommendation).
I love the forum, it's been extemely useful back when I was a nOOb. It's been a while, and I think my knowledge base is slowly drifting back down to that level . Any advice appreciated!

I'm off tomorrow, let me go back through all the specs (I ordered from cybepower in '03, then swapped out a few things) and write up a little history to make it easier. I'll PM you tomorrow.

Created CD with ISO, booted:
Memtest ran for 10 seconds. Hung after 1% of Test 3 (Pattern 8080808080). Couldn't enter configuration menu. No errors reported.
CPU?
And...Blue screened at about 2 hours of use with just multiple reboots and no other useage...

How do I troubleshoot? I'm not sure I even know the specs on my PS...do I have to crack the case to find out?
Isn't that enough? Is it just unreliable?
you want to give us a little insight where you are...if you aren't too far, I wouldn't mind providing some help...I'm in Beaverton near cooper mountain and regularly build my own PCs/HTPCs...

swapped RAM out, booted to memtest86
still hangs at test# 3 8080808080
Maybe I just don't know how to run memtest?
Regardless, installing motherboard monitor and running cpuburn tonight.
BTW, the PSU is an ATX 420W. I was reading online, but now have the case cracked. Doubt it's underpowered.
Here's the logs of the last three crashes last night, after bootin up at 10pm, note that I see recurring errors in 0x1000008e, 0x0000000a , and 0x10000050. Isn't 8e a TCPIP error????
In the past other logs include 0x1000007f , 0x00000024, and 0x000000d1.

Were you ever able to solve this problem? I am also getting random reboots with an 8e error. I am running MCE 2005.
