BSOD on bootup in Win2k

Hi,

I recently bought myself a new motherboard, CPU, and RAM, and did a clean install of Win2000. I used all up-to-date drivers for all the hardware (listed at the bottom), and for some reason I am getting various types of BSOD very soon after booting up for the first time in the morning. It usually happends within 60 secs of getting to the desktop. The BSOD's that tend to occur are:

STOP 0x00000005 PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA in win32k.sys
STOP 0x0000001E KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED in win32k.sys
STOP DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL in uhcd.sys
STOP DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL in ntoskrnl.exe

(seemingly quite random).

Does anyone know what might be causing these? I'm not overclocking, and like I said its odd that it only happends the first time I switch it on after being off for the night. If I reset the computer it works perfectly. And if I turn the computer off for a bit then on again it also boots up fine. The problem only occurs when the computer has been off for a sustained period of time.

Hardware:

AMD 1800+ XP - new
Abit KR7-RAID - new
Crucial DDR RAM - new
SB Live (using new 2k/xp drivers) (old)
CL Geforce (using latest drivers) (old)
Latest VIA 4in1 drivers installed.

Thanks

hmmm boot to safe mode and run msconfig, check to see what all you have starting on boot, uncheck any unnecessarry programs, see if that helps, this only happens when the computer has been off for a while and is first powered on?

DaiShan,

umm win 2k doesn't have msconfig.

Yes it only happends when the comp has been off for an extended period of time (more than about an hour i'd say).
