Constant BSODs and event errors - Windows 7 32-bit

Hi all,

I am running a Dell Dimension 4600, P4 2.66 GHZ, 4 GB RAM (4 sticks), DVD-ROM, CD-ROM, 200GB Maxtor (bought in 2002 - unused until 5 days ago), 120 GB WD, 350W PSU (I believe).

Ever since I installed Windows 7 5 days ago, I've been dealing with BSODs and a bunch of errors in event viewer.

I've attached some dump files for anybody that knows how to read them. I got them from the Minidump directory.

I also have a summary of the BSODS.

What could be causing this? Low PSU? Bad mobo? I've ran memtest86 (no errors) but not on the individual sticks. EDIT: I tested each stick of RAM individually and I got no errors.

Thanks for your help.

What did you do in the way of installing motherboard drivers? It appears that Dell does not support Windows 7 for the 4600 since there are no Windows 7 compatible drivers for it.
 
I didn't install any drivers for my motherboard.

I believe my BIOS is updated - is that the same thing?

I used the Windows Advisory Tool and it gave me the OK.

Thanks for your help.
 
The BIOS is not the same as drivers. Whenever you install Windows, you also have to install compatible drivers. These include chipset, LAN, audio and video drivers. I looked at the Dell website and found only Windows XP compatible drivers.
