BSOD on my inspiron 9400 every time it turns on.?

All right, today my laptop (inspiron 9400) running windows xp home edition randomly started giving me blue screen of death every time it’s turned on with this error (STOP 0×000000024 (0×00190203,0×87335828,0xc0000102,0×00000000), then later my cousin found the windows xp cd and every time we tried to use it we got this error (stop 0×000000078 (0xc0000005,0xf786a0bf,0xf7cb6208,0xf7cb5f08)
pci.sys-address f786a0bf base at f7863000,datestamp 3b7d855c), and we also tried using a live linux cd or something to be able to salvage some files to an external hard drive which is all I REALLY want to do then I’ll get my cousin to wipe it and install windows or linux on it again..but yeah, how can I salvage my files? I really need to know :(

linux live cd for extra security has anybody given any thought to that?

I have been thinking on my next round of computers when all my HDs die this time I may just run live CDs. on all my boxes. I am running linux mint now with no problems but got to thinking how much more secure it would be done like this I can download to a flash drive when needed. it would save me the expense of new HDs has anyone given any thought to such a thing mine are all home use net browsing and such. I imagine security would be better this way also. any thoughts pros cons anything I may not be thinking about thanks guys
probly DSL, linux mint and knoppix 3.3 are the OSs I am thinking on using for this purpose

What version of linux do u recommend for newbies?

I’m tired of OS X 10.4.10 which crash all the time ,slow and unstable – just like Windows PC. I wanted to port to Linux ,I tried Ubuntu but it failed to boot Live CD (EE: no screen blabla, something with the xorg.conf)
So where to start?

Why can my pc run any operating systems?

I was on XP on day and i got like 7 error messages and the pc shut down. Now it does the same thing every time i boot up.

Then I tried a couple of live linux cds and none would even boot up all the way.

I know a lot about computers but, I’ve never seen anything like this?!?!?!?!?!?!
