This single crash DMP was Related to intelppm.sys driver from Microsoft. It was reported as hardware but I would re-install the driver with newest available as yours is from 2009.

I would also update this driver

Code:

GVTDrv64.sys    9/5/2006 3:10:02 AM        fffff880`08eb6000    fffff880`08ec0000    0x0000a000    0x44fd22ca

I would also remove Kaspersky and replace with Microsoft Security essentials.

Here is the reading on hardware related crashes

Your .dmp file shows a stop error of 0x124 which is a general hardware error .

A "stop 0x124" is fundamentally different to many other types of bluescreens because it stems from a hardware complaint.

Stop 0x124 minidumps contain very little practical information, and it is therefore necessary to approach the problem as a case of hardware in an unknown state of distress.

had another crash is it for the same reason

PunkBuster active thread but still blamed on hardware.

Are you overclocking?

Overclocking (stock or not) is often the cause of hangs and instability.
