my computer says that the Nvidia Geforce6200 driver is up to date with the most recent version. Also, I added the extra info.

yes, they are still happening consistently. You said that the driver for my video card was causing most of my problems right? I found another video card in my house that is a bit older, but it was working fine the last time it was used. Do you think I should switch out my current one for it?

alright, I put the new graphics card in and gave it some time and I haven't had a single BSOD yet :)
however Firefox and IE still like to crash a lot. but it's nothing more than a minor annoyance. though if you have a solution on how to fix that too I would be grateful.
Finally, thanks for all of your help on this :)

Okay, since the PC seems lil stable with the other graphics card, I would suggest you to do a Clean Install Windows 7 (The links for downloading the OS (pre-SP1) are linked on this tutorial). Get the latest drivers/chipset/motherboard drivers for it (if available). If not from the manufacturers website then install via Driver Install - Device Manager.
Good Luck and let us know if there are any other problems :)

I actually did do a clean install. I just accidentally put fresh install in the title.
I also just tried updating and windows refuses to download the updates. it just sits at 0% downloaded when I try manually downloading them through control panel and doesn't do anything when it tries downloading them on shutdown.

How many updates are you trying at once? The reason I linked you to clean install factory OEM is because it has SP1 integrated. Try installing few at a time..btw does it give you back any error code?

I am only installing 3. and yes, it did return an error code.
80073712 (windows help recommended System Update Readiness Tool and then repair with the installation disk)
80070057 (windows help didn't have any results for this one)
8024200D (windows help recommended System Update Readiness Too
I am getting the System Update Readiness Tool right now.
