    Thats good.

    Now please read carefully these 2 tutorials,

    Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable

    Using Driver Verifier to identify issues with Drivers

    Pay attention to this>--> ""So, I'd suggest that you first backup your stuff 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).""

    Then enable driver verifier,work,play as usual and wait for the crash\bsod and upload here the new bsod file.

    With driver verifier we force the pc to crash\bsod and that way we isolate the faulty driver.

    After the crash\bsod disable driver verifier.

    Verifier is running under the settings stated in the first link. As my BSOD's where happening during start up most of the time, they never seemed to happen after i had been logged in for a long time. will this affect verifier? seems like my best chance of getting a blue screen is to keep rebooting til it happens.

    Trying to be as clear as i can with what i mean

    Leave enable the driver verifier until you have a new bsod,then disable the driver verifier and upload here the new bsod file.

    Did you had\have any new crash\bsod from the day you enabled the driver verifier?If yes then please upload the new bsod foled,if not then we must to wait.

    Yes,the normal step is to enable driver verifier,then restart :)

    You must always read carefully all the tutorial Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable

    ""After a reboot, driver verifier should be enabled. Use your computer as you normally would, although expect frequent BSODs if there are driver issues. If the system doesn't crash after 24 hours, disable driver verifier.""

    (Sometimes though you may need more than 24 hours for the crash to occurs)

    Clear and simple steps,
    First backup then create system restore point then enable driver verifier then restart then wait for the new crash\bsod,after the new bsod disable driver verifier and upload here the new bsod folder.

    If you have any other questions your welcome to ask :)
