That has most likely to do something with your graphic card drivers.
Reinstall them.

More specific info if you are a nerd:

0x0000008E means that a program generated a kernel exception error  which wasn't handled by the error handling routine of win xp.

That are usually hardware compatibility issues (in your case most likely graphic card driver).

Those can usually be solved by installing the newest graphic card driver or if that does not work try a bios update.

Of course you should make sure you have not caught any malicious virus
