STOP: 0X7B error!

I will try to keep this as short as possible. Windows XP on all.

Computer A is running along OK and has a need to re-boot. On the restart the blue screen of death pops up. STOP: 0x0000007B

Restart is the same error.

Computer A is used only to run a scanner. Important job must get scanned. Identical computer B is brought over to run scanner. Pull hard drive from A insert into B and everything boots fine, runs for days non stop. Insert perfectly running hard drive from computer B into Computer A and blue screen of death.

Finish big scan job. Insert Drive B back into computer B and it works perfect. Take B out and re-insert A drive into B and it works. Both drives work in B. Neither drive works in A.

Buy brew hard drive and install windows from scratch onto A. No problems except no software and files need to do job with A computer. Clone HD B to new drive. STOP: 0x0000007B and much cursing.


Bottom line: Computer A will not get past STOP: 0x0000007B with either A or B drive, works just fine with new drive. Computer B works with all drives.

WTF. How do I cure this?
