No idea myself.

From what I saw doing searches on the first couple of error codes the most common is drivers, second is hardware. Video is mentioned most.

Anything new? Maybe not compatible with win 7?

Here is one thread that I saw that is recent and close to your problem.

You could try doing a windows system restore back to an earlier time and see if that solves the problem. If it does not, then you can always restore back. Best to do a manual check point (backup) before you do the restore.

Most BSODs are caused by drivers.

nVIDIA chipsets are a curse with driver problems. Avoid them at all costs. If you use Intel then I highly recommend an Intel based chipset. If you use AMD then I highly recommend an AMD based chipset. Do not use any chipset from nVIDIA.

I once installed a new Logitech webcam. I started getting a BSOD randomly after that. I found out by researching that it was the Logitech drivers that suppressed background noise that were causing it. I disabled that option on the webcam and no more BSODs.

Definitely a driver issue, contrary to popular belief, BSOD's aren't the fault of the OS, and M$ isn't responsible for creating most of the drivers causing the issues...With Windows 7, many of the hardware manufacturers have been left exposed, not being able to blame Windows for failures...Uninstall or unhook any peripherals, reboot, and go from there...

Also, it's worth a check to see if you have any visible issues in your device manager if you haven't checked already...

Well you guys are right in saying that it was the drivers. I had a sneaky suspicion that it actually was the drivers and I actually i realised that its most probably this particular driver "stdriver32.sys". So im going to have to find an update of this which doesnt cause BSOD.

Thanks guys

Some sort of sound card driver? Are you using onboard or a separate sound card?
