0x101 (A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval)
Bug Check Information (found here)
It appears to be only related to the manufacture of the processor, and doesn't seem to be fixable yet...a Google search shows that AMD and Intel both experience the problem across multiple operating systems. So...yeah...I would have to do a lot more research before finding a fix, if available.
There was one person who said it was related to the TV Tuner Card...so what you could do is remove all un-needed expansion cards and disconnect any unused cables/devices and try it again.

I have no tuner, or any other "extra" hardware. The clock interrupt is one of a few possible messages and cannot be trusted.
The most common message is NO MESSAGE, just a complete siezure of the system.
I doubt that this is related to the Intel processor.
If it were, changing memory would have not been likely to have an effect on the system behavior. For me, it clearly had a positive effect.
Milage will vary.

The memory has a direct connection to the CPU via the FSB...so perhaps that's why changing the memory affected it. The reality of the situation is that no one has an answer...so I'd say the CPU being the fail point is the best bet.

Cause
The specified processor is not processing interrupts. Typically, this occurs when the processor is nonresponsive or is deadlocked.
I have a positive update:
I was contacted by a very helpful HP employee who monitors this forum. He gave me several options and I have choosen to have a new computer sent to me. I will then return my current computer to him after removing my data and licensed programs from the system. He will then be able to test and work with the motherboard manufacturer.
