I can't find any references to error code 16 with respect to
ntkrnlmp.exe. The most common error code associated with
ntknrlmp.exe is 7, and that often indicates a hardware problem such as
defective RAM.
As registry corruption can also be the result of defective RAM I
suggest that you download one of the following free RAM test utilities
and run it for an extended period (e.g. overnight) to check out the
RAM in your computer.
