This error indicates that Windows attempted to access a memory location that it shouldn't have, often due to a driver issue or corrupted memory. Troubleshooting steps include updating drivers (especially graphics, network, and storage drivers), running a memory diagnostic test (Windows Memory Diagnostic tool), checking for malware, and performing a System File Checker scan (sfc /scannow) to repair corrupted system files.
