Everytime I remote into my PC at work I receive a blue screen with the stop
code 7F (8,834CD0C0,0,0) (didn't enter all the 0's and x's). The computer at
work is running Windows XP. I have a new Dell Inspiron 1720 laptop runing
Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit Intel Core Duo 2 CPU. I updated drivers,
cleaned the registry but still get the error at least twice daily in an 8
hour period. I cannot find the stop code when I search the internet. Any
ideas would be appreciated.
 
The important starting point with stop codes are the two digit code up
front: 7F.
7F = UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP

The other numbers give a clue, but you typically need the Intel manual to
decipher them.
In this case, the first number is 0x00000008 which means: Double Fault.
Well, that cleared everything up, right.

Double Faults are typically the result of a Stack Overflow.

The stuff about the double fault is on page 5-33 of the current edition.

Unfortunately, this is leading to a debug session that is usually a bit more
than most people want to track as it involves installing specific software
from MS to capture information from the fault.

What this will do is show what processes are being used at the time of the
crash and tend to point to the culprit. But, it is never easy.
