RE:"beginning dump of physical memory "
wtf is this?"

It's a memory dump.
Reseat your memory. If that doesn't help, replace it or run memtest.

You should receive a "stop" message on the BSOD, similar to:
"STOP 0x000000E2 (00000000, 00000000, 00000000, 00000000)"

The first set of HEX number will vary as to the cause of the error, so do a search on google for:
windows 2000 "stop 0x00000000"

Where the 0x00000000 is replaced by the actual number that you are getting. You can usually narrow the problem down to hardware or a corrupt file.

Either your memory is fried or you have a software problem. Last time I was getting those errors, scandisk and defrag clear everything up. Apparently it's bad to have a 100 gig hard drive 94% fragmented.
