    I lost focus of the original problem -- sorry! Sometimes I get so caught up in the jcgriff2 report I forget to read the history and miss obvious problems.

    Code:
    Event[116]:
      Log Name: System
      Source: Microsoft-Windows-WER-SystemErrorReporting
      Date: 2011-04-23T16:43:37.000

      Opcode: N/A

      Description:

    That is usually a sign of hardware trouble, and given the system history, again, I am not surprised. I'd suspect perhaps the hard drive is bad, or maybe the motherboard is damaged. I'd take the system into a repair shop and have the motherboard replaced, honestly.

    You might try reseating your RAM as well; that's something you can easily do from home.

    would you likely suggest just getting another laptop? Because my tech-savvy friends are telling me I should.

    When it comes down to it, you might just be better off. A new motherboard for your system would cost probably a couple hundred dollars, and there is no guarantee it will solve the problem. If you had access to spare computer parts you could test with, it may change the story a little. If you could definitely rule out RAM and CPU, we could make a pretty good case for the motherboard being the problem.
