Background information on Stop Error message
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms797160.aspx

0xC0000218: UNKNOWN_HARD_ERROR
(Click to consult the online MSDN article.)
A necessary Registry hive file couldn't be loaded. The file may be
corrupt or missing (requiring either an Emergency Repair Disk or a
Windows reinstallation). The Registry files may have been corrupted
because of hard disk corruption or some other hardware problem. A driver
may have corrupted the Registry data while loading into memory, or the
memory where the Registry is loading may have a parity error (turn off
the external cache and check the physical RAM).
Source: http://aumha.org/a/stop.htm

Do you have an Emergency Recovery Disk?

What is your computer make and model?

To get the error message from the blue screen (a.k.a. the BSOD --
Blue Screen of Death), you'll need to turn off WinXP's automatic
reboot "feature:" Right-click My Computer > Properties > Advanced >
Startup and Recovery > Uncheck "Automatically restart." The next time
your PC crashes, you'll be left with a blue screen full of memory
addresses and other seeming gibberish. The top 2 or 3 lines of this
screen will contain information that can help solve your problem.
Carefully write down these lines and post the exact text back here.
Hopefully, one of us will be able to provide some insight.

Additionally, you should check your Event Logs to see if they can
shed any light on the matter, To do so, Right-click My Computer >
Manage > Event Viewer > System and Application. Record the specifics
of any red-flagged error messages and post the exact text back here.
Again, hopefully, one of us will be able to provide some insight.

Hi Bill,
If this machine have the Recovery Option then try to r8un diagnostic on your
machine hardware first, then try to Select advanced Option/Button and use the
System Restore option if the Hardware test passed!
If the Hard Drive Failed then you need to rescue your Data by hooking the
HDD as Slave to another Windows NT computer and copy your data to a removable
storage.
