Windows Blue Screen of death

[kjv1611]

I recently built a machine with these specs:
Case/Power Supply: Antec Sonata w/built-in 380 Watt PS
Mobo: Asus A8V Deluxe
Memory: 2 x 256MB DDR400 - Kingston
Processor: Amd Athlon 64 3000
Video Card: Asus V9520-X/TD-128 DDR 8X (GForce FX 5200)
Sound: built in
Wireless network: Linksys wireless PCI card on this on this computer.
Western Digital 80 GB Parallel 7200 8mb cache drive.
Liteon 16X DVD-Rom
OS: Windows XP Pro

Now, these errors did not happen once at my house, nor at the house where I took the machine until after a good while after Quickbooks 2004 Pro and the Microsoft Intellimouse drivers were installed. At that point, it happened a couple of times, seemed somewhat random. I later looked at the machine, and it SEEMED like it happened more when there was network activity between this and the other computer. Though, yesterday it did not happen at all, and today, the friend called me, and it happened twice right off.

The blue screen basically says:

Microsoft has shut down your machine to protect it from damage b/c of serious errors.

Technical details:
Stop At:
0X0000009C (0X00000004, 0X80545FF0, 0XB2000000, 0X00070F0F)

Just a couple of other notes I've thought to mention, just to see if anyone can guess it's a bad board:
1.) I noticed that I could not get the wireless network card to work on the last pci slot, but a couple of slots up, it worked fine.
2.) I also noticed that the computer did not read a printer on the LPT1 port, though it was hooked up through a parallel cable directly to the motherboard, but worked fine when hooked through USB.
3.) I was getting keyboard errors with one keyboard, but not with any others, so I assumed it was the keyboard.
4.) One monitor did not work appropriately with the board, but 2 other monitors have worked fine. (the one was too dark, and the screen fuzzy.

Anyway, if anyone has any idea(s) on this, please let me know, b/c I'd like to get this fixed for my friend ASAP.

I've not encountered this before with new equipment, only old equipment.

Well, I think I have some encouraging news (I hope). I took the machine to my house (no wireless network), and ran a Norton performance test on it with no prob's, installed and played Ghost Recon on it with no problems, not even the slightest jitter in the game, and just did various little tasks with the machine, and it worked flawlessly, no errors or any slowness or anything. Therefore, I believe it is the wireless adapter (Linksys - I am shocked), so I'm going to try using a different wireless adapter this evening to fix the problem - will try accessing the network via the new card. So, either this evening, or tomorrow, whenever I get the time to do so, I'll post back to let everyone know if that was the problem. Thanks for all the many suggestions thus far.

GREAT NEWS! GREAT NEWS! So far, and I hope it stays that way! I replaced the wireless network card, and no problems. So, that must have been the issue causing the problems. Thanks for all your efforts, it seems problem solved! I replaced the wireless card last night, then took the machine back over to the friend's house, and set it back up on the network, and tried various actions/settings to test it, and no problems, even when accessing the network. I should've figured that one out right off, when I noticed it was having problems on the network (only, most likely, b/c the network activity also goes on some even if you are not trying to access your files yourself, just the way the Windows Networks work).
