Well I am using an Alienware Aurora and it locks up/freezes/crashes and I get the BSOD (bluescreen) a lot everyday. I'm clueless to what the problem might be. I seem to have all the necessary windows updates and drivers. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

0x3B errors often have to do with video drivers. Have you updated them? The following steps have helped a lot of people:

1. Download Driver Cleaner Pro or Driver Sweeper (both have free versions; make sure the version will work with your OS) to your desktop screen and install.

2. Download the latest diver(s) for your video card but don't install them.

3. Uninstall your video card drivers and reboot your PC into Safe Mode. Run Driver Cleaner Pro or Driver Sweeper but ONLY for the video card drivers. I had someone use it on their chipset drivers! If it doesn't find any video card drivers that is quite okay.

4. Reboot and install new video card drivers.
