XP crashes - Event Viewer messages

[ozstar]

Over the last week or so my XP box has been crashing every now and then for no apparent reason.

I am checking all options.

In event viewer it mentions these messages below. Anyone know what they mean?

Would like to know if Avast caused crashes or something caused avast to carsh.

Thanks

Please, go to folder \windows\minidump and send the newest (recent) .mdmp files for analysis. There is also C:\Windows\Memory.dmp file.
Better if you can compress (zip) them and add some information about the BSOD and the link for this thread.
