    Alright, do you have MSI Afterburner on your system?

    Yes I do, I've been using it for like 2 years? It's version 2.1.0.

    You may want to uninstall it and see if that fixes your problem. If not, you can always reinstall it. If you are doing any overclocking, turn it off for the duration of testing.

    I will try that now, but I'm wondering why it would start causing BSODs after 2 years?

    It is probably just causing it due to being stressed by the driver verifier utility. I wouldn't worry about that yet. If it ends up being the culprit after we are done testing, then you might have some concerns because it may mean hardware is beginning to fail from being overclocked. As I said, though, it is likely just the stress from driver verifier.

    OK, I'm going to play/test now and see what happens with Afterburner removed. If you have any more thoughts let me know. It usually crashes after about 30 minutes so I shouldn't be long.

    I tried to run memtest but it won't boot from my USB stick, I set it to boot first in the bios but it just says it's not a valid bootable device or something along those lines.

    Full system specs are filled out on my profile: Windows 7 Forums - View Profile: Dodots

    As for the other questions:

    Windows 7 64bit
    OEM bought from Overclockers
    Most of the hardware is around 2.5 years old
    I just formatted

    I've also added that other file you wanted, but I only have the one DMP file as I formatted.

    If after testing you decide you need to run the Memtest, try burning to CD instead of using the USB drive.

    I just crashed again with Afterburner uninstalled, I've attached the dump.

    I don't actually have a blank CD, I have a blank DVD though if that'll work?

    That will work, though it's a waste of space for such a small program lol. Let me look over your dump files.
