    Random Lockups and BSOD events


    Hello,
    I have recently started experiencing lock ups and BSOD events. These occur during normal operations and I cannot identify a culprit that would be the cause.

    Dell Precision M6500
    Windows7 Ultimate 64bit
    Processor: i7
    Ram: 8gb
    Age: 1 yr.

    Thank You for any help,
    Marc

    Related to your AVG, iastor.sys and old drivers

    I note you have AVG.

    AVG can be a contributing cause of BSOD'S .
    Please remove and replace with Microsoft Security Essentials AT LEAST TO TEST

    Download tools and utilities | AVG Worldwide


    Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows


    Update iastor.sys to newest (yours from 2009)

    How To Find Drivers:
    - search Google for the name of the driver
    - compare the Google results with what's installed on your system to figure out which device/program it belongs to
    - visit the web site of the manufacturer of the hardware/program to get the latest drivers (DON'T use Windows Update or the Update driver function of Device Manager).
    - if there are difficulties in locating them, post back with questions and someone will try and help you locate the appropriate program.
    - - The most common drivers are listed on this page: Driver Reference Driver Reference
    - - Driver manufacturer links are on this page: Drivers and Downloads

    Are you recommending I update the drivers that are listed?

    How can I find a trusted supplier of these drivers?

    Is there a method to determining the original supplier of the driver, what hardware is associated with what driver etc...?

    Thanks
