-=PCTechTalk=- Windows XP BSOD When Attempting Wireless Network Repair

This is actually an old problem that I did not have time to address during
the last semester of school.  I am not exactly certain how to copy the blue
screen message (I know it has something to do with setting the computer not
to reboot or something like that).  I have accessed the event viewer (is
that the same as the blue screen error message?) and am looking through the
list of errors and I think the one I am looking for gives this information:

Date:           12/31/2008                      Source:         NetBT
Time:           11:11:17 AM                     Category:               None
Type:           Error                           Event ID:               4321
User:           N/A
Computer:       Toshiba

Description:

The name "WORKGROUP     :1d" could not be registered on the Interface with
IP address (lists xxx.xxx.xx.102, do I need to list the whole IP here?).
The machine with the IP address (lists xxx.xxx.xx.103) did not allow the
name to be claimed by this machine.

I then get a link to Help and Support.

Data:

0000:   00000000        00560004        00000000        c00010e1
0010:   00000010        c0000001        00000000        00000000
0020:   00000000        00000000

This machine's specifications are as follows:

Toshiba A15-S1292
Processor:      Celeron 2.4GHz
RAM:            752MB
O/S:            Windows XP Home Edition SP3

The problems started just after installing SP3, but because I only use this
laptop rarely (I only start it to update windows, Norton, Comodo, any other
software updates and use the fax software) that I just did not make the time
to find out what the problem was.  I am now out of school until the 18th of
January and am able to do a little maintenance.  I was considering
uninstalling SP3, but thought something else might be causing the problem,
so I was going to do the last ditch effort of using the recovery disks, and
reinstalling all my software.  If you can offer another suggestion, it will
be appreciated, if not, back to the drawing board.

Sorry for the long post!  :(
