Oeer. Hmm, cs:eip is pointing at text ".1.1.1.14.1 2001" and blowing up trying to execute that. Hmm, eip is in a rather weird address. Oh, %esp is hosed somehow, the stack pointer shouldn't be zero. :) So somehow the stack pointer got messed up and it started executing garbage before blowing up. Can you read the CD contents find on this machine? What year is the BIOS onthe Dimension XPS and can it boot a Windows 2000, NT 4, or Me CD-ROM ok?
