HELP!! INSUFFICIENT RESOURCES TO COMPLETE THE API

I have been having a Major problem for the past several days,(since it did 3 automatic updates Saturday when i shut it down for the day), and have not only been unable to post from my laptop, but have not been able to get it to work at all!!!
I get the following message each time I turn on the computer~~once I click OK it shuts down, restarts and goes right back to this message NEVER able to load Windows, so i do not even get a chance to go online and download the "FIX". IF there is anyone out there can knows how to fix this problem, and/or knows how to remove one of two WINDOWS XP's that are on the Acer (that is another long story), please comment and tell me how to do so. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!

MORE INFORMATION
To prepare the computer to hibernate, the Windows kernel power manager requires a block of contiguous memory. The size of this contiguous memory is proportional to the number of physical memory regions that the computer is using. A computer that uses lots of RAM is likely to use more physical memory regions when the computer prepares to hibernate. Therefore, a larger amount of contiguous memory is required to prepare the computer to hibernate.

Additionally, the number of physical memory regions varies according to the programs, services, and device drivers that the computer uses. Therefore, the hibernate feature occasionally fails.

When the Windows kernel power manager detects that the hibernate feature has failed, the hibernate feature remains disabled until you restart the computer.
