The 0x0000008E error is a common problem on Windows XP and is caused by an inconsistency with the original release of XP. As this system is approaching 10 years old, many of the functions, files and settings that were on it before have either become damaged or corrupted, and do not work with all the latest software that’s now on the market.
The 0x0000008E error will typically show for any serious error caused by XP’s older inconsistencies, and normally shows in this format:
0x0000008E (KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED)
