Perhaps you could be a bit more descriptive?

This looks like nothing I'm familiar with in Windows.

I thought I was pretty clear I get those codes after booting SLOWLY (almost did not boot).... windows act as if they want to crash and I have to kill the pop up send report thing like 6 times before it goes away.

afraid to turn my puter off! :p

Checked the HD through a Sisoft sandra and that went well. looking around now do not see any glaring problems...?

Were there, like, any WORDS on the screen?

Was this a dialog box? If so, what was in the title bar? Was there anything other than that gobbledygook? Like "an error occurred" or anything like that?

If not, this isn't from Windows but from some application.

i've had this happen to my laptop. it brungs up a box that says "windows has recovered from a seriuos error" then it allows me to send report or dont send report. I just click dont send and it goes away after i click it three or so times. Then everything runs fine. It is rather annoying though. i could use a fix too.

Okay, that makes sense.

First off, you've got one too many zeros in there. The bugcheck code is 0x100000EA, which is a THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER_M bugcheck. It means a device driver is stuck in an infinite loop.

Suggestion: update your video drivers. This is the most likely offender.

Also, go to System control panel, advanced, startup and recovery, and turn off autoreboot. You might see a filename of the offending driver on the blue screen that will help you decide which driver is causing the problem.
