New Laptop Crash/Blue-Screen frequent (Windows7 64bit)

I bought and used this laptop for 2weeks, and it was fine at 1st, with couple of not so great improvement compared to my previous old laptop but lately I been getting random crashed where I would be doing something (which is different every crash almost) and it would pop up this black/blue screen with multicolored dots/lines all over so I cant read the message on the "blue-screen". And I'm not sure what's the problem at all. And because I am on WoW alot more, I thought at 1st, WoW was crashing me but I later it happened when I was on Skype and also just regular browsing on the web and even facebook games and I think it happened before when I just turned on the laptop..

I'll provide a dxdiag, I hope this tells you something but I'm not very good at computers I really don't know how else or what else to do >.<I downloaded the SF Diagnostic Tool v2.02 and ran it as Admin, but the file is empty, not sure if CCleaner programed cleaned it or something went wrong somewhere.. Anyone help?

Hi there, have you tried to update your drivers for the graphics? You mention coloured dots, this would indicate a graphic card or driver issue.

Try the drivers from ATI website. http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Pages/radeonmob_win7-64.aspx note how at the bottom it mentions Makes it doesnt support and acer isnt one of them so should work fine.

If they dont work then go to this link Service & Support and select your model Notebook, Aspire, 5942G and install the driver third from bottom.

Hope this helps. :)

I finally unchecked the option in CCleaner and manage to get the minidump from yesterday's BSOD and some pics of it.

Any help?

Of course. that one BSOD was caused by your USBhub. you need to re-install the driver for that external Hub

let us know if you need help.

Hi I have similar problem with unreadable BSOD just like in previous screenshots. Im running 64bit version of win 7 and

have ATI mobility Radeon HD 5650 GPU. It`s very strange, BSOD occurrs sometimes 4x a day and sometimes not at all. It

doesn`t matter if I`m running some callenging graphic application or not. I`m attaching dumpfile.

Have you tried doing what i put in my last post?

The USB drivers wont cause the funny looking display but could have caused the BSOD.

Try what i posted and get back to us. :)

Well same like Matqo it sometimes doesn't occured at all. Sometimes I get it 6 times a day but I'm pretty sad the old other BSOD dmp files were gone so this is only one. It may be one of the cause but not all.

Also u said the USB won't cause the funny looking display.. so what did?
