I don´t know if this is the place to post this problem, but I´m giving it a shot anyway. My problem is that Win2K randomly crashes out when I use it.
 
Have tried to isolate the program/driver causing the crash, but the only thing I´ve come across this far is that in the Event Log a message appears stating "The system was restarted due to a bugcheck"
 
And since I don´t have a single clue to what this is I´m hoping on somebody to help me out here. The crashes have most often occured when I surf the net, so I´m suspecting I.E to be the problem. Anyway, if anybody knows something about this, please advise/help!

In the Event Log, what is listed under the Source column? Knowing what is the source of the "bugcheck" should allow you to determine which driver/service/program is killing your W2K box.
 
Hope this helps.
