BSOD - Software or Hardware???
Hi, could someone help me figure out why my computer seems to randomly crash with a BSOD. It is happening seemingly random, that means some days it will crash 3 times, other times it will go days without a crash. I can't attribute any particular activity with the crashing.
My computer is unaltered/unopened since buying it new, so still under warranty. However if it's a software problem, I should be able to fix it myself without send it away.
here are the specs:
Acer Aspire AX1301, Windows 7 Home Premium, CPU AMD Athlon II X4 620 quad-core, VGA: HD 4350 512Mb ATI Radeon
I have my suspicions about my wireless usb dongle. Its a D-link DWA-125 and it has been nothing but a pain to use!
Just a bit of further info: i also have dual OS with Linux installed on a separate partition, and the computer also crashes under Linux. However i still cant distinguish between software and hardware becasue it could still be the wireless USB.
My dump files are attached.
Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks alot!
