Win XP blue screen 0x8 or 0xD1 error

I've been having occasional BSOD with either 0x000000D1 or 0x0000008 stop errors. Specifically its during internet surfing, playing games on website such as Neopets. Error message did not show any driver file that might be the cause.

Rig is as below, except video card is ATI 9250.

Advice appreciated.

If you Google search the stop errors, you will get better results than just searching the M$ KB. If there's a pertinent M$ article, it will usually be on the first page of hits. You have to be exact with the 0x and the number of zeros before the pertinent number, and it also helps to put the verbage in the search such as irql_not_less_than or whatever.

Thanks, will check out google again. Did that once but only cursory.
Strange thing happen today. Norton IS request for activation, saying subscription expired when it should last till dec 05. I activate it again and NIS seems to "remember" my subscription - it shows the correct date till dec.
Not sure if it is related.

No crashes today. Updated my sound card driver last night. Usually the BSOD happens about once or twice a day.
