Alright, I got a few BSoD's since my last post (there were no DMP files created), and I ran the collection app at 10p. Here's the file:

Hi,
Yes, very relevant. Sorry I missed that post before. One of my suggestions this time is for you to update both your graphics and audio drivers as they are almost certainly not the latest versions.
Also, there were not recorded Bluescreen events to be found anywhere since the 7/27/10 - my guess is that it crashed so fast it did not have time to record anything.
The errors that were recorded since then (apphangs etc.) mostly happened when you were gaming, which of course makes the graphics driver look even more suspicious.
Also, your event logs are full of Network errors, like this one:
So your networking driver is also worth updating.Code:Event[16]: Log Name: System Source: Service Control Manager Date: 2010-07-31T21:50:16.634 Description: The Peer Name Resolution Protocol service terminated with the following error: %%-2140993535
Here is the list of drivers to be updated (this list was how they were on the 27th, you may have updated some of them since then).
Update the first 2 from ASUS: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support-Code:L1C62x64.sys Mon Jun 29 15:53:43 2009 (4A483AC7) - Atheros Networking RTKVHD64.sys Wed Nov 18 01:13:00 2009 (4B02934C) - Realtek Audio nvlddmkm.sys Sun Oct 04 07:02:29 2009 (4AC791B5) - NVIDIA Graphics nvhda64v.sys Sat Aug 22 08:23:50 2009 (4A8F0256) - NVIDIA HDMI Audio
Then update the NVIDIA drivers (they both should be part of the graphics driver package) from here: Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers

Hi,
Updated all of the drivers, the graphics and audio from Nvidia, and the LAN and other audio from ASUStek.
Wireless and Internet seem to work fine, but I have the "No Audio device is installed" indicator above the speaker icon (complete with red x), and no audio can be heard.
Update:
Just got a BSoD. I should tell you that, after installing all of the new drivers, I restarted, and it hung at the "Starting Windows" animated logo. I did a hard-reset, and the system loaded enough for me to post the last comment.
The BSoD was the same as one I had described on page 1, before (0x00000000C4, etc.).
Ridiculous...
Reventon is offline for a little while, but he will be back in a few hours. In the meantime, he has asked me to take care of the audio issue.
Go to Device Manager, and then right-click on your card. Just for the heck of it, select Update Driver Software, and see if it finds anything. If so, let it install.
If not, then select Uninstall. You will be prompted for a reboot, and see if that fixes the audio issue.
Hi!
On some previous advice, I booted with, and ran MemTest86 overnight. I slept late, and it ran 14 passes, with zero reported errors. I left MemTest86 in default mode, and didn't change any settings.
I just turned off driver verifier. Is there were a way to force the system into creating dumps?
As for the audio, my device was listed as the generic "Audio device on HD audio bus", which appears to be installing now, once I pointed it in the direction of the RealTek drivers.
Hmmm...still installing...this is taking some time...
Okay, we've hit the 5 minute mark...
Audio drivers were found, but they apparently could not be found...
I'll uninstall and try a reboot...
But first, I wanted to mention that, in addition to the Reaktek audio (which now appears under its generic name), I also have four separate listings for "Nvidia High Definition Audio".
Screen from my device manager, showing the five separate audio drivers...
I'm uninstalling all of the audio drivers now, then rebooting...
Okay, Driver Verifier was turned off. All audio drivers were uninstalled. Rebooted. All audio drivers (four Nvidia, one Realtek) are now active and working properly. BSoD occurred minutes later.
Gentlemen, we have a dump!
