    Not had any BSOD's but had regular freezes, it's getting quite annoying, 7201 was much more stable than 7232 and cant find anything in the system events log to point to what may have caused the freeze. Will do the Bootable Hard Drive Diagnostics - Vox ?

    It can't hurt, and it may reveal something. I'm having storage controller issues using Vista drivers in 7200. I reported it via Connect and was contacted by a member of the Win7 team who suggested that Vista drivers were the cause due to a "very specific" entry in the driver file. They recommended Win7 drivers, but there are none for my RAID card.

    I have an OCZ SSD hard drive so I would imagine none to the utilities in Bootable Hard Drive Diagnostics - Vox ? would help.

    I've now had 24 hours of of freeze free operation and I've uninstalled a few apps, 1. being Daemon tools lite. I'm kinda convinced that it maybe a software incompatibility problem.

    Daemon tools has loads of issues even with non-beta systems. Good move!

    I've read about this free utility for SSD's (but haven't tried it myself): Crystal Dew World

    Here's a post about it on the OCZ forums: Guide Crystaldiskinfo has some secrets to tell - OCZ Forum

    My latest BSOD although this is the first one in 4 days, I've also found that Uninstalling Firefox x64 had stopped my system from freezing.

    However ESET do state on there website that NOD32 is only suitable for XP/Vista

    I don't like Internet Security apps - too often they cause issues that are hard to diagnose.

    I'd suggest uninstalling the ESET and installing a free antivirus (such as Avast or Avira) to see if that fixes it.
