I have a lenovo r61i laptop windows xp professional service pack 3 intel pentium dual cpu t2310 @ 1.46ghz x2.  I had this problem before and somehow i fixed it i think i done a bios update this time it dosent work i just get blue screen with following stop code: 0x8e (0xc05, 0x80637f53, 0xa3fd299c,0x0) I have tried my memory modules by taking them out trying one at time and same problem i could get into safe mode with networking but now the networking will not work just safe mode i also tried selective startup and diagnostic startup still bsod used system restore it worked but then when i shut down laptop and went to use it again same thing again. can find loads info on code 8e but dont seem to help so i wrote the full code down as i dont know how to read these codes.  i have no xp cd.  sometimes i can get past bsod and get plain blue screen and get task manager up and i try new task explorer.exe but then bsod again

    Well if it was a desktop pc,& all hardware is correct,at power off,

    remove the battery,locate the CMOS pin,move from 1-2 position to

    2-3 for 15 seconds or so,then back to 1-2 position,replace battery,start

    pc.At pc start up,enter the BIOS,reset date/time & adjust for any add-ons,

    save & exit BIOS,let xp start.This returns all functions to default (as it

    left the mfg),if a laptop uses or can be set up as same,then try the

    procedure,it from mfg...

    Boot the computer in Safe Mode. Click Start > Run > type C:\Windows\Minidump > Press Enter. A folder should open containing minidump files. Locate the most recent dump file then upload it to your "Public" folder in SkyDrive. Post the link to the folder in your reply.
