Have you checked Frank Gruendel's web site? I think that Frank used to
repair that kind of problems on a 130. He might have posted instructions on
what he does to fix the problem. I think the URL is

Due to the extreme fragility and bugginess of Microsoft Windows, misbehaving applications can readily crash the OS (and the OS sometimes crashes itself spontaneously). The Blue Screen of Death, sometimes decorated with hex error codes, is what you get when this happens.
