spaciousmind,
What you did was install the latest Ralink 802.11 USB Wireless Adapter Driver.

Look at the top line of the output from WinDbg where you see that the probable cause is netr7364.sys. That's a Ralink product. You now have the latest and greatest from RaLink.

just out of interest which particular output file was it that you found that information in?

the word "that" needs clarification. Thanks

Ahh I see, always had trouble finding the right drivers for that damn thing as its just a generic product and seems to be made by 100 different companies.

After moving to windows 7 I just assumed that it would find the correct drivers and update them automatically, but I guess not!

just out of interest which particular output file was it that you found that information in? so I might be able to diagnose a problem myself in the future

thanks guys for all your help!

The thing you installed included both an application (which you can completely ignore) and a driver (which is what I think you needed)

Install and run WinDbg on the dump.

Now that was easy to say, but there are several steps between the I of install and the p of dump.

sometimes, this little simple program will do the job, but I didn't try it on your .dmp file.
Blue screen of death (STOP error) information in dump files.

personally I would just delete the desktop icon and pretend it wasn't there. I wouldn't mess with it now that it's working.
