    I still maintain, (subject to change) that the problem is the driver that I specified. Roll back the driver. If that does not work uninstlall after making a system restore point , so that it can be restored.
    If that does not work we can move on to the next possibility. Your current files show another driver.

    If updating does not work, we will try a driver verifier. If the verifier does not solve the problem, I am beginning to think harware. Right now, I feel it is a driver, however.

    That is what we are trying to solve in this. It's extremely hard to try and figure out what the problem is right away. This is why we have troubleshooting techniques to be able to narrow it down, and isolate the problem. Then fix it.

    Can I install Intel driver update utility to update all the above drivers at once and how can I check if it is updated.

    If you install new drivers, we can tell what was updated by looking at your BSOD reports. They list drivers.
    If you are a do it yourself type of guy:
    Go to search by the start button and type cmd
    In cmd type driverquery. You will see the old dates of driver and then you can do it again and see the new dates.

    This time it came up with another driver. Reports indicating that it is a different driver each time, can be due to hardware problem. Before we go there take driver verifier, run for 36 hours

    Driver Verifier
    I'd suggest that you first backup your data and then make sure you've got access to another computer so you can contact us if problems arise. Then make a System Restore point (so you can restore the system using the Vista/Windows 7 Startup Repair feature).

    In Windows 7 you can make a Startup Repair disk by going to Start....All Programs...Maintenance...Create a System Repair Disc - with Windows Vista you'll have to use your installation disk or the "Repair your computer" option at the top of the Safe Mode menu .

    Then, here's the procedure:
    - Go to Start and type in "verifier" (without the quotes) and press Enter
    - Select "Create custom settings (for code developers)" and click "Next"
    - Select "Select individual settings from a full list" and click "Next"
    - Select everything EXCEPT FOR "Low Resource Simulation" and click "Next"
    - Select "Select driver names from a list" and click "Next"
    Then select all drivers NOT provided by Microsoft and click "Next"
    - Select "Finish" on the next page.

    Reboot the system and wait for it to crash to the Blue Screen. Continue to use your system normally, and if you know what causes the crash, do that repeatedly. The objective here is to get the system to crash because
    Driver Verifier is stressing the drivers out. If it doesn't crash for you, then let it run for at least 36 hours of continuous operation (an estimate on my part).

    If you can't get into Windows because it crashes too soon, try it in Safe Mode.
    If you can't get into Safe Mode, try using System Restore from your installation DVD to set the system back to the previous restore point that you created.

    The problem indicated was your eset software. Start with a system restore point and replace eset with Microsoft Security Essentials. Begin with the System Restore because you may want to go back to Eset if Essentials does not correct the problem.
    Continue to use the Verifier as this BSOD was not caused by the Verifier and Verifier may produce additional BSODs which may give other drivers.
