windows xp serious error report re. CD Rom Drive

hi i recently got an external dvd rw drive, an LT black one. I had trouble installing it has none of my cd drivers worked. I managed to fix this problem and now have all my cd and dvd rw drivers working, I have 2x cd rw drivers with one of them being a combo drive that plays dvd’s. the problem I have now is that wenever I open up a media player program such has realone player 8 or musicmatch jukebox my pc just shuts down! Then when I reboot it says that the system has recovered from a serious error.

These files have the error report, C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\Mini052204-04.dmp
C:\DOCUME~1\Robert\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER1.tmp.dir00\sysdata.xml.

I have tried 2 reinstall the service pack 1 on my windows xp pro and it was ok after that then again the problem happened afterwards

The specs on my pc r 130GB HDD, 1GB RAM, 9800 pro graphics card, 2.8 p4 and a soundblaster PCI card…. Hope this info is clear to u guys and hope u can come up with some suggestions, thanks………..

 

Pete, I can't do that - clicking on the text icon does nothing. I can export the log to a .txt file.

Not particularly interested in fixing, just to let others know that if for whatever reason its not working for them, there is the "export" option.

EDIT: Mystery solved. Have to bring up worpad or word or notepad and paste.
