I am getting the 0x0000008E error. It seemed to occurr after loading a DVD
movie. I am running system retore. What causes this in Vista Home Premium?

That's a hardware compatibility problem. It can be a driver
issue. Since it happened during video playback I'll take a SWAG and
bet you're running an ATI card. Try installing the latest set of catalyst
drivers.
