For some reason the mini dump folder is empty, I have ccleaner installed but I haven't used it since last week or two weeks ago maybe

This BSOD is usually caused by an outdated BIOS or a defective CPU

Go to your motherboard's website and check your version of your BIOS. See if there are any problems you are having that are solved by a a later version. I do not often recommend flashing the BIOS because there is a risk involved. If there is problem addressed by a BIOS that applies to your computer, consider flashing your BIOS to the latest version. If you choose to do this, flash you BIOS outside of Windows.

Run Prime 95 again to test your CPU and your ram. Carefully the instructions in this tutorial: CPU - Stress Test with Prime95. Run 3 separate tests, one on each of the settings (Blend, Small FFTs, Large FFTs). Post back with your results.

There are no dump files in your attachment, did you run a system cleaner(such as Ccleaner) after the crashes?

Then its hardware failure, run the test linked above

@yowanvista
thanks great advice :)

i'm sorry for this maybe a dumb question, but if it is a bios problem than how come it hasn't ever done this before ?
I've been using this pc for 1 year, 4 months

hey, i'm still running prime95 and i happened to notice that my 12V is running at 11.6V
should i be worried ? or is it normal ?

Also, I happened to be browsing through my windows files and found this : WD-20110218-2203.dmp

I don't know what it is exactly. the date is 18/02/2011 so it can't be about today's blue screen
I've attached it anyway, in case someone here knows what it means and could help me.

Perform a SFC Scan

1. Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow

2. Type the following command, sfc /scannow and then press ENTER:

(A message will appear stating that 'The system scan will begin'. Be patient because the scan may take some time)

3. If any files require a replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Windows 7 DVD for this process to continue

4. If everything is okay you should, after the scan, see the following message "Windows resource protection did not find any integrity violations"

5. After the scan has completed, close the command prompt window, restart the computer. (TIP repeat scan several times)
