This is my first time posting in the forum so if I need to add any additional info, please tell me. I am following the instructions of BSOD posting provided.

I am receiving BSOD regularly during use and sometimes when I open my computer after putting it to sleep. I had so much trouble that I just did a factory reset and did not even restore my backed up info. I just installed bitdefender, chrome, and winamp. I still had BSOD problems so I uninstalled BD and installed MSE and malwarebytes as were some of the general suggestions on other sites. Still had BSOD problems. Thought it was winamp because it would blue screen shortly after opening winamp (and was very noticeable since the music would freeze in the middle of playing a song and loop the music where it stopped), uninstalled it and used Windows Media player. After doing yesterday I did not BSOD last night but I did BSOD today so I don't know what the problem is anymore.

Attached are: SF_Diagnostic_Tool log and a picture of the latest BSOD I encountered (if it helps), which is generally the same as the other BSOD I have been encountering in terms of stop code and the fact that "physical memory dump FAILED."

update: went from 0x0000007A stop error to 0x000000F4

update:

Blue screened again, this time with a stop error code I do not think has appeared before. Now shows 0x000000F4. Ran the SF_Diagnostic_Tool again and let it save in the same folder with (2) designating the new files. If this is a hardware issue, if you could get back to me ASAP that would be great; I bought my computer July 2, 2012 so I still have the 1 year limited warrenty from Sony to replace hardware problems.

Also, when i run SF_Diagnostic_Tool it tells me unable to find dump file, if that makes a difference. However, I followed the posting instructions and set everything to how the screenshots showed.

Thanks in advance.
