I have a computer that will randomly reboot, it is usually when the user is in word or excel. I have downloaded the Windows debugger program and pulled up a minidump log, but I don't see anything that will help me figure out what is going on. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out!! I don't know anything about coding. Here is one of the minidumps. Thank you!!

debugger is useless without the symbols (as you see)


start > run
eventvwr.msc

look for Red Xs in SYSTEM AND APPLICATIONS

This is the error that shows up in the event log:

Source: Save Dump
Event ID:1001

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000bad(0x8123da00, 0x813422c0, 0xc0000005, 0x6dd9db4). Microsoft Windows 2000 (V15.2195). A dump was saved in C:\winnt\minidump\minidump031805-01.dmp.

This is the only error in the event log that shows when the PC reboots. That is why I was trying to get the debugger to help me.

Thanks.
