I've ruled out the heat issue when I installed a new cooler master a few weeks ago.

What OS is installed? how long has it been installed? If it's Vista I would install something else. I would go with overheating/bad cpu/ram as well...but you could try reinstalling your windows.

It sounds like a driver issue, specifically a video card driver issue.
I'd go to the manufacturer's website to download and install the latest drivers. |

If it's vid card related you could also make sure your video card fan is operating. I've had a few of them go out and it BSODs.

If you want to find out EXACTLY what driver is causing it, PM me.
I will have you email me the minidump file (C:\Windows\Minidump\010110-18860-01.dmp). You could also analyze it yourself - Windows Debug tool aren't hard to use once you get them functional but getting them functional is somewhat complicated. Let me know if you want to go that route. |

BlueScreenView works pretty good at identifying what driver is causing the BSOD.
Download it for free here: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

Or it could be a driver...or any number of things. It's really hard to troubleshoot these things.

The presence of the BSOD confirms that kernel debug was able to do a crash dump, which generally exonerates the CPU. More than likely, it's either GPU or RAM that is causing it. |
