hi,
I'm running vista x64 ultimate and getting a bsod every few minutes/hours
I couldn't find the cause so I tried just turning on my computer without network connections and it worked for 3 days without a crash
then I connected it to the internet (cable) and several services stopped working after a few hours but still no BSOD or reboots
after 2 more days the computer got stuck (no bsod)
when using emule or utorrent the bsod's gets more often' so i believe it has something to do with the network connection / controlers. I downloaded the latest drivers to my network controler (marvell) and to my video card (gtx 260) i scanned my memory (6 GB) for 24 hours with no error.
please help
i attached the last minidump fil

Hi eliak,

Have looked at your mini dump files. Most of them specify a Vista driver as the cause, as you can see here.

Have you overclocked your CPU at all? Also what did you use to check your memory, as some of the mini dumps came up with memory corruption.

Since you are using emule and utorrent, I would suggest getting the Malware team to have a look at your system,P2P programs can be a very easy way to collect junk. You may find this guide a good read
