I decided to reinstall Win 7 because it just seems like such a hassle getting all these drivers squared away. AsIO.sys is the one I just cannot find a new copy of. I plan on updating all drivers all the same. Any suggestions you guys might offer for a clean reinstall?
And BTW, thanks for your previous efforts.
Wise man,
This will probably be the neatest & possibly the quickest way to get your computer up & working again...
Good luck!
Clean Install Windows 7
Is there an advantage to format the drive during install of Win7? I did not do that and now I'm wondering if I should have.
As mentioned /recommended in zigzag's Post 22 it is good idea.
By formatting you get rid of the "crap."
So I reinstalled Win7 with the format drive option. I updated all the drivers I could find. Two days later the system crashes on me. I attached the required files. Hopefully with a clean install it will be easier to pinpoint the problem.
Thanks in advance.

AVG can be a contributing cause of BSOD'S .
Please remove and replace with Microsoft Security Essentials AT LEAST TO TEST
Download tools and utilities | AVG Worldwide
Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows
> Please update these two drivers asap.

* nvm62x32.sys 10/17/2008
As JMH so eloquently stated the problems you had were re-installed when you used the CD that came with the computer.
AVG is directly blamed in this newest.
Ok. Uninstalled AVG. I found a newer nvm62x32 I cannot find a newer nvmpu401.sys (4/13/2005). Any ideas on where I might be able to find it? The NVidia web site doesn't return a search and I can't identify the driver other than it's something for audio.
Nvmpu401.sys with description NVIDIA® nForce(TM) MPU401 Driver is a driver file from company NVIDIA Corporation belonging to product NVIDIA nForce(TM) Audio Driver.
Look on your Asus motherboard support site or ask Cyberpower.
