    The fan may just take a while to start.

    Can you make out anything in the jummbled message?

    Also what did you do before the system restore?

    Have you added anything? like extra memory?
    Install any software?

    The Stop 0x00000050 error usually means there might be a problem with the memory, but it might be something installed that's fubar'ed up!
