Why does there seem to be more BSODs with Win 7?
About 4 weeks ago I moved form XP Pro to Win 7 Pro 64-bit.
During the many years on XP Pro on different PCs I can't recall any BSODs - there may have been the odd one, but that's all.
Moving to Win 7 Pro 64-bit on my 8-month old PC I've had one or two BSODs a day. As all my drivers now show as up to date I hope BSODs are a thing of the past.
However I'm curious to try to understand why it generally seems that more BSODs are occurring on Win 7 than XP. My son upgraded his 3-year old PC to Win 7 2-3 months ago and, as far as I know has not had any BSODs.
Is it Win 7? Or is it going to 64-bit? Or what?
Just out of curiosity :)
