"Serious error" message on every start up

I had a system stop (followed by automatic restart) on March 9. Event log
entry after the restart was "The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck..."

Ever since, every time I start the computer, I get a popup "The system has
recovered from a serious error...". The popup asks permission to send an
error report to Microsoft (which I've done several times just to try to make
the popup go away next time).

Each time, there is a "system error" entry in the event log, Event id
1003, category (102), error code alternates between 100000ea and 00000027.

Each time, a minidump is created in \windows\minidump

Otherwise, the system seems to be operating properly.

Do I have a serious problem on my hands?

If not, is there some way to stop the error processing on each start-up?

If so, thoughts on next steps?

Many thanks in advance.

Just found this in the knowledge base, which addresses my question. Should
have looked there first.

Careful, this breaks 3D apps on system with Nvidia graphics cards. Your
system will reboot when trying to launch the app. See my post from earlier
today about this.

Hi Mike,

Try one of these methods:

~~~
Right Click the My Computer
Icon/Properties/Advanced/Performance/Settings/Advanced/Change. Set Page
File to 0, ok your way out and reboot. Then follow the same procedure and
reset the Page File to System Managed File.

Right Click the My Computer
Icon/Properties/Advanced/Performance/Advanced/Virtual Memory/Change/No Page
File. Reboot. Then delete C:\Pagefil.Sys then revert the page file setting.

Right Click the My Computer

Reset the Custom setting, reboot.
