A couple of months ago this started. About once a week when I boot it will fail and then re-boot. A box will pop up indicating that Windows had a problem and had to shut down. I says that it was caused by a device or device driver. How can I determine what is causing this? It is a computer I built and I am running XP Home. It is about 3 years old.
