I've gotten 7 BSODs while watching Starcraft 2 battle reports from different sites. It has also happened with IE. The latest crash was from Gossip Gamer and most of the others were from Starcraft2.com. I have the latest drivers for my GTX 260 video card. Is there anything I can do besides avoid watching videos?

Please zip up all of your minidumps and upload/attach the .zip file with your next post. That may help us figure it out.

Seems he stated the problem pretty clear.
1. Vista Driver
2. Win 7 X64
3. Video
4. Firefox

You might try install the driver in Vista Compatibility mode.
your card is listed as Compatible with Win 7.
You might try IE 8.
 
I would zip them all, but all the minidumps are gone now for some reason. I have cut and pasted the contents of each minidump to save time.

It also crashed once during my test in IE8. Guess I just have to wait until the next driver release comes out. Anybody have any other ideas?
