You have lost a driver for the program mfewpak.sys or the system driver that is part of this program try this link.

That blue screen error is normally a bad driver. Windows could have updated a device in your pc and it just not work. Go into safe mode and roll the pc back to a date before the blue screen.

Try removing all the appendages (USB drives, external hardware, etc. ) and restart the computer. Select the last best configuration.

Start your PC and press F8 several times until the boot menu comes up. Then select "Safe Mode with Networking". Now get some or ALL of the FREE programs below.

This is a typical sign of a defective hard drive.Your hard drive might or might not be repairable, depending on the degree of damage.
I would recommend that you use a live CD (such as this one: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/download.html) to boot up your computer & run a hard disk diagnostic tool like HDD Regenerator. It might take several hours (sometimes days) to fix the damage. If this did not help, then you will have to replace the hard drive.

That is because it is designed to run on Vista and XP is not supported with drivers etc.
The motherboard will not run because XP has no drivers for it. XP is too old!

Windows Xp installtion give Blue Screen of Death when XP tries to installed devices driver during installation or when the cd is corruptted and cannot be read in graphical mode installation or when the hard drive is corrupted with Bad sector.

Get a new windows XP CD and configure your system BIOS to default setting ( load optimal settings) and configured for IDE drive configuration to compatible mode or disable mode if you are using SATA hard drive.

If problem still occured, get "Bad sector recovery pro" and try to repair the hard disk.If the bad sector are unrecoverable then change the hard drive.

Sometimes, faulty RAM also give blue screen too. Check your RAM too.

it might be virus effect...........
reinstall os wiil solve the problem...........
