=============================================
I'm going to ask you to run about 6 tests by MemTest86+ over your memory.
I do not really think that the memory error is from bad memory, but we must be sure.
What program or driver did you add very recently?
Restore you system, using a System Restore Point, to a point in time prior to this problem
Even with no effort on your part, you have System Restore Points.
the only way not to have them is to have used one of those super-duper, speedup, cleanup your computer programs.
Here is how to restore to a previous restore point:
RESTORE TO A PREVIOUS SYSTEM RESTORE POINT 1) WIN | type
SYSTEM RESTORE | ENTER | NEXT

4) Scan for affected programs(lower right)make a note of affected programs
