Hey all, thanks for reading this if you do haha.
Is Windows 7 . . .
- x64
- Originally was Vista, but I installed Windows 7 on the laptop.
- Age of System: 1.5 years.
- Age of System: 1.4 years (I ran vista for a little bit before swapping to 7)
My laptop had been working fine and dandy until I came back from Minnesota to Florida, on the 22nd. I don't recall installing a lot of programs. I
did install Mass Effect, not sure if that has a lot to do with it. Also some updated drivers for my graphics card, thinking I might downgrade the drivers (is that possible?).Somewhere along the lines, I started getting Blue Screen'd, not totally super frequent, but a couple times a day (I use my computer a lot).

Conclusion [/FONT]
[FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]
26 crash dumps have been found and analyzed. Only 15 are included in this report. 2 third party drivers have been identified to be causing system crashes on your computer. It is strongly suggested that you check for updates for these drivers on their company websites. Click on the links below to search with Google for updates for these drivers:
[FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]pneteth.sys (PdaNet Broadband Adapter Driver, June Fabrics Technology Inc.)[/FONT]
[FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]netw5v64.sys (Intel® Wireless WiFi Link Driver, Intel Corporation)[/FONT]
[/FONT]
[FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]
As you can see, the [/FONT] [FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]
ntoskrnl.exe thing has been the cause of most of them. What do I do?
On a less important note, just today my computer started randomly shutting down without warning, just every light turns and the whole thing is off, then when I turn it on I get a problem with the AC Adapter (???) . I think this might have to do with overheating since my laptop was burning at the time (I should say that I had been playing a lot of Mass Effect before it happened)
[/FONT]
tl;dr
I'm getting blue screen'd, details above, haven't really installed a lot of things barring Mass Effect and some drivers for graphics cards, [FONT=Segoe UI, Arial]
ntoskrnl.exe seems to be the cause, what do I do?
Thanks again!
