1271926 2012-04-26 06:23:00 Mcafee isnt on this is it? That can cause that stop errorNo Mcafee on here.

I did have an old USB stick on the back of my PC (forgot all about it) running as a speedboost (or whatever its called). When it Blue screened before I pulled it off. Been at least 15 minutes since then, still going... for now...

1271927 2012-04-26 07:03:00 I should be so lucky. I still think this has something to do with my video driver - started a graphics heavy flash-based game and the system froze again...

1271930 2012-04-26 07:39:00 Happened again, different BSOD:
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
0x0000003B (0x00000000C0000005, 0xFFFFF96000153EAF, 0xFFFFF880045960C0, 0x0000000000000000)
win32k.sys
Address: FFFFF96000153EAF base at FFFFF96000090000 Datestamp 4f2b63bd

Time for a re-install? Hope not... or is it hardware (even worse)?

1271931 2012-04-26 08:12:00 I would get an ISO of memtest burn it to cd then boot from it. Then test the memory Speedy Gonzales (78)
1271932 2012-04-26 08:19:00 Could insufficient power be a cause?

Then test the memoryLOL went to do this but then remembered that I don't currently have a CD drive to burn with or boot from :) I'll see if I can get one set up to try it. I have however turned on the POST memory test and the Windows 7 memory diagnostic (run from the F8 menu while booting) and both passed.

Cheers,

Yes, what is the PSU, how old?

1271935 2012-04-27 01:54:00 Yes, what is the PSU, how old?It is old and I think about 320 or 350W. I used to have a 450W in there until a few months ago when it kicked the bucket - the one in there now came out of an old computer. But up until Wednesday it had been functioning alright, I had assumed it was enough power.
