The error codes could be identical if it's the same error each time. I had 
problems previously with some software clashing with my TV tuner, taking the 
system resources to 90+% and causing the TV software to crash (but leaving 
the sound going in the background!). It took me a little while to discover 
it was F-secure causing the problem (fssm32.exe). Since converting to 
ZoneLabs the problem has not recurred.
