yeah thanks...
well I did the memtest... my ram is all perfect... 0 errors on multiple passes
I have as I say looked into the mini dmp files more than a few times...
but here's the thing... I still say Windows 7-64 bakup tools are for sh*t...
I say this now because after enjoying the frustration of consistent and repeated bsod's when running those, I just went and bought the Paragon Manager suite 12... which does a perfect and way better job of creating a total back up... the files are smaller, the job runs way faster, and the software is overall way more intelligent.
It's restore potentials are way better also... one can restore to bare metal, and even to other systems.
So I will NOT be going through all that other nonsense again, ...
