Do you have a dump file we can see?

The above article tells you how to troubleshoot this problem. The cause for this BSOD (Blue screen of death) is due to either (1) Boot-Sector Viruses, (2) Device Driver Issues, (3) Hardware Issues, or (4) Other Issues.

Have you done any of the following:

• chkdsk /r
  
• rebuildbcd
  
• System File Checker

Hello,

There are lot of reason why your having BSOD. Without the Dump files it's hard to predict with just the stop codes. See if you can get the Dump files.
If the System is not booting at all .

Start with Hardware Diagnostic follow this link http://captaindebugger.wordpress.com/hardware-diagnostic/ and run all the Diagnostic.

Hope this helps,
Captain
