Hey everyone. Having some issues with BSODs, generally when I'm downloading games such as League of Legends (using the Pando Media Booster program to do so), when I install/download games through Steam, and even just when I leave the computer on long enough for it to go on standby. While there are several other filenames listed in the crash reports, every single one involves the ntoskrnl.exe.

I had it examined by Best Buy, and they told me that it's likely a software issue, as all my hardware checks out. Any help I can get would be appreciated.

The perfmon /report function is not working at the moment (possibly because I'm working in Safe Mode so I can type this without interruption by BSOD), but attached is the crash reports. Edit: Perfmon /report added

- x64 bit system
- Original installed OS on the system - Full retail version - What is the age of system (hardware)? : 1 year - Recently reinstalled Windows (last week, did a repair installation and that seemed to help temporarily)

Thank you, I think that's done it. Will try and test it out for a couple days to make sure that's everything, then mark thread as solved. I appreciate the help immensely.

Alrighty then, run pretty much every program/other sort of thing I could think of, no more issues. Thanks again, marking thread as solved.
