A problem has been detected and Windows will be shut down to prevent damage to your computer

After installing Windows XP Service Pack 3 and restarting the computer, some people get this error:

Some of the technical codes associated with the error are: OX0000007E (0XC00007D, 0XF7C6B8EA, 0XF7C6B7F4 – 0XF7CBBYF0). When I booted into safe mode, I noticed that the boot process stopped when the MUP.SYS driver was loading.

The first thing you can try is to boot from the Windows XP installation CD and go to the recovery console (by pressing R), and then run a chkdsk /r scan. If it finds any errors, it will attempt to repair them. After the scan, restart the computer and hope for the best.
