When I click on the "more help" link it goes to a windows support page that suggests I have a driver problem. I have the most recent drivers from Nvidia and Creative, so I don't know quite what to do next. I know that the Nvidia drivers prompted Windows to give me a "not whql certified" message when I loaded them but there are tons of people using those drivers so I'm not sure that's the problem.
Any help would be *most* appreciated. I'm a computer idiot.
Here are the popup errors from Windows on bootup
