Typically machine checks are hardware, actually almost all of them are.
Whats the exact error?

Hi Joseph, thank your for taking the time to answer me. The error it's
presents with the next message at the right bottom side of the monitor,
where the icons of the programs are active are shown.

"A machine check error has occurred,please check the system eventlog for
additional information"

But now with the observation you stated about hardware, I think it may be
because of the Nvidia GeForce 5200 AGP driver, which I downloaded from their
web site and I changed it for the one windows carries on the O.S. software.

Am I right ?



Regards,

Carlos

Typically these are CPU errors, in some cases it could be a driver. If you
look in the system event log, whats the data in that event?
