It's my second since I quit Wal-Mart in 1996. Does this error list

mean anything I should worry about?

0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0x00000000, 0xA926BC7C, 0xA926B978)



Thanks.

Not sure if will help but a quick Google of 0x0000007E returns this first:



How to troubleshoot a Stop 0x0000007E error in Windows XP

Are you running WinXP SP2 or SP3?



Did this happen immediately after installing a Windows Update?



What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your

subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?

What third-party firewall (if any)?



Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the

computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought

it)?

XP, SP2 -- unless SP3 was installed without my knowing of it.

No. I had changed nothing on the computer since summer, when I

installed Thunderbird (with no trouble at all).

Avast! It's current. It's been thhre for three years.



Adaware. Four years on the same machine.



No other firewall.

Yes. I uninstalled all of those.

No. It's a Dell Inspiron 220 with a Celeron.



It's definitely SP2.

Do this and there will be fewer questions about your system.



Click Start, Run and in the box enter:



msinfo32



Click OK, and when the System Summary info appears, click Edit, Select

All, Copy and then paste back here.



There would be some personal information (like System Name and User

Name) or whatever appears to be only your business that you can delete

from the paste.
 
1. Why hasn't SP3 been installed by now? [just a question, not a

recommendation yet]



Note: Extended Support for WinXP SP2 ends on 10 July 2010. After that date,

computers running WinXP SP2 will NOT be offered any further critical

security updates, Automatic Updates will not work, and Windows Update

website will not be accessible until SP3 is installed.



2. Did you ever run the Norton Removal Tool and the McAfee Consumer Products

Removal Tool and did you run them before you installed Avast?



3. Are you aware of the fact that Ad-Aware SE is not longer supported and

that there haven't been updates for it for almost two years?

If your system is now working normally then I wouldn't worry about this

once in a life-time episode. Don't waste any more time or don't have

any sleepless nights. You should expect Microsoft Operating system to

crash from time to time otherwise all pigs won't have anything else to

do apart from asking you stupid questions like::





Are you running WinXP SP2 or SP3?



Did this happen immediately after installing a Windows Update?



What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your

subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than

Defender)? What third-party firewall (if any)?

computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you

bought it)?

Usually this is a driver error. If you search the internet for this error

code, you will find lots of reasons for the error.

0x0000007E: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED



http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/ms795746.aspx



"0xC0000005: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION indicates a memory access violation occurred.



Faulty device driver or system service. A faulty device driver or system service

might be responsible for this error. Hardware issues, such as BIOS incompatibilities,

memory conflicts, and IRQ conflicts can also generate this error."



A device driver may have had the problem, but it could just

as easily be caused by a memory error with the memory itself.



For peace of mind, you could try a couple passes of this tester.

Versions are available, to make a self-booting floppy, CD, or USB stick.

I use the floppy, since there isn't much else you can do with the

floppy. If I make a USB stick version, I keep erasing it so I can

reuse the USB stick.



http://www.memtest.org/



I've had several lots of memory fail, a couple years after

buying them. So even if memory tests good the day you bought

it, it doesn't have to stay that way.



HTH,

Paul
