I'm seeing a recurrent theme of memory management/memory corruption from what you've provided.
You should probably go ahead and check it by running memtest overnight. (needs to run for several passes and will take some time so I suggest overnight)
See link for tutorial on using memtest - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

Probably caused by : memory_corruption ( nt!MiBadShareCount+4c )

PFN_LIST_CORRUPT (4e)
Typically caused by drivers passing bad memory descriptor lists (ie: calling
MmUnlockPages twice with the same list, etc).  If a kernel debugger is
available get the stack trace.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000099, A PTE or PFN is corrupt
Arg2: 00000000000506eb, page frame number
Arg3: 0000000000000002, current page state
Arg4: 00000000000506ea, 0

Maguscreed thanks...

I ran memtest for 8 hours today but found nothing...U have mentioned firefox above...I was getting BSODs while using forefox most of the time...Does that mean firefox has an issue??

 

[Maguscreed]

well if the memory is actually bad it could just mean you use firefox a lot.
that's why I just jump straight to the test it's free and can run while you sleep.
then we know.

 

[steffin]

What if the tests from memtest came ok?

 

[Maguscreed]

I'm currently not of the mind that it will be the case.

If firefox is the ONLY thing that is crashing which is not what I saw, it could be the nvidia firefox problem. Which apparently exists even though it hasn't hit me on either of my nvidia machines.
For that you just have to turn off hardware acceleration in firefox. in options under the advanced tab. Note that firefox will take a noticeable performance hit when this is done.
