    It may not be a driver causing the issue exactly but BF3 itself is incompatible with a driver. You could try running directly from the internet using an Ethernet cable or use another wireless device to connect (recommend borrowing one so you don't spend money on a potential non-solution).

    Also, it may be software that is interfering in some way. Run through the steps in Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup to determine any incompatible applications.

    Yah I really think its BF3 were something is wrong. After the first patch was released I didn't play at all until a week ago and I started getting these BF3.exe has stopped working, and a few BSOD's. The game crashes everytime I try and play it. And supposedly EA is working on fixing this issue. So maybe BF3 itself is cuasing the BSOD's????

    Re-installed the game, drivers, patches. Like IVe said I never had this issue until recently. Like for a week or so.
    If you have any restore points from two weeks ago, try restoring from a restore point. Backup your user files first.

    I realize I have given a lot of options, but run them in the order I have given them one at a time to determine which, if any, help your situation. Obviously, you can hold off on the memory test until you go to sleep so you are not wasting your day with slow results.

    Driver Verifier stresses your drivers to determine which might be incompatible with Windows 7. It just changes how Windows normally runs to mimic situations where drivers are likely to fail if they are not working correctly. If your drivers normally work well and do not typically fail, then verifier may take a long time to cause a blue screen error. If you get blue screens more often due to drivers, then Verifier will cause the blue screen error sooner.

    For instance, I have a laptop that once had a driver on it that was designed for Windows 7 before the RTM version was released. It caused a blue screen within 30 seconds of boot up. I replaced the driver with an updated version, and Verifier did not cause a blue screen for nearly two days.
