I am running win 2k and it tells me after startup, after about usually 10mins that it is doing a small memory dump, in a full blue screen. If I leave it to do this it will stay that way for 30 mins or longer and there is nothing I can do to get out of it. The only way I can do anything is to restart the computer. It does not do this everytime. But most of the time it does.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It will never resume from one, as the system has encountered a terminal error and halted.

As to the reason...well if you search the internet for "BSOD" it returns about 39,000 sites...

You should note exactly what you were doing and what programs were running at the time, to start to narrow the field a bit.
