a STOP error whilst booting Win2000 that was impressive, few restarts later and a quick virus scan and all is fine, of course I haven't got a clue why it should have happened, it's not like I've done anything other than surf on the net recently...

XP will be coming with the new PC, which is coming when I build up the courage to drop that amount of cash

Unfortunately, because I seen something *very* similar to
your issue, with the issue you are having, even if it goes away for some time, that crashing, including *even* if you didn't change *any* software, including occasional explorer.exe crashes during logging on, it's unfortunately a early stage tell tale that the processor is unstable, even if it seemed to have been 100% OK before.

If overclocking, you *MUST* try to increase the processor
voltage (Vcore) by a step to see if this goes away and if it doesn't
you *MUST* lower the processor frequency by at least 50 mhz.
If you are not overclocking, still try to increase the processor voltage (Vcore).

But if recently on the internet, there is a high chance you got a
virus and AV automatic detection did not detect it.
