    Up till a couple of weak ago my system was running fine and then all of a sudden on day it just rebooted on its own. Once it restarted it went into this infinite boot cycle loop where it would boot up until it got to the point it would start to load windows and it would just reboot again and it would repeat this over and over. Once I did a full power down and let it sit for a while I did a cold boot and got a Stop error. To make sure I got all the info right I grabbed a snap shot of the screen and for reference I have posted it on my web site.
    Also here is the stop error number for quick reference.
    *** STOP: 0x0000008E (oxcoooooo5, 0x805CBCEC,0xF8973BA0, 0x00000000)
    I’m really kind of stumped on this so I would appreciate any help in this matter.

    Hi Spindal and welcome.

    Can you get the PC to stay up for any length of time? We really need a detailed dump file to make much sense of this one. Instructions for getting the tools you need and generating the dump file are Here. Note that any dump file will be too big to fit in a single post here so you'll need to split the file into two or possibly three sections and post each of them in order.

    Also note for future reference that those stop errors are all numeric so where you had the letter o, it should have been the number 0. No biggie in this case but if someone were trying an internet search for the error, they would find nothing to match your posted stop string.

    I can get the computer up and running in safe mode and full XP but it will only run for about 2 hour and thin it will reboot and start the whole process over again. This is leading my to believe it might be a heat issue of some sort, especially since the fan on my motherboard has been louder lately. I should be able to get that dump sheet and post it up some time tomorrow.
