Hey everybody,
I've been having some pretty random but frequent BSODs lately. I just installed TuneUp Utilities 2011 after having multiple BSODs within a few days, so if the .zip doesn't have many minidumps, it's most likely because of recent optimization I've done in an attempt to resolve this problem.
Regardless, I'm fairly inept with computers and am unsure of how to proceed from this point. I know that ntsokrnl.exe has been pinged several times as the STOP error cause, but it's also been a few others.
I've not been able to ascertain any sort of pattern in these BSODs other than the fact that they usually occur when I begin any sort of graphically-intense event, like utilizing Flash/Shockwave for YouTube or Flash games, or trying to play any games on Steam. However, I've also had my computer freeze and blue screen when simply surfing on Chrome, so I'm at a loss.
I've attached my .zip with the information that can hopefully allow someone to understand what is going on...I'm not sure at all if it's a driver issue or something hardware related. Thanks in advance for the help, guys!
EDIT: I neglected to mention that I've also noticed extremely high CPU usage (maintaining near 100% levels for long periods of time) and sluggish computer response, something I have never had in the past.
Specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium x64
ASUS G72GX-RBBX05 model
Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 @2.53GHz
6.00 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M
