BSOD; System Service Expectation and others!

Hello to all!

So I have recently bought a new gaming PC in Aug 09, and for the past 3 months I have been getting BSOD errors. I have re-formated and cleaninstalled windows 7(64bit) twice and updated all my drivers with no avail, I still would get random BSOD, but only when I would play games (Go figure, gaming comp not being able to run WoW?)
These were just some of the Errors;
Page Fault in non-page area
IRQL not less or equal
Driver IRQL not less or equal
Bad Pool Header.

So after many emails back and forth with the people I bought my comp from they said to clean-install vista (what it came with) and update all my drivers and such, and I did.. After about 3 hours of getting it back up and running with the same settings and software as it did when I bought it, I now get the following error less then 2 minutes of playing WoW.
System Service Error.

Could anyone give me any advice how to stop these errors? And also if anyone knows if they are to do with hardware, software or drivers.

I would be SO very thankful for any information you could supply.

Hello bethany,
Welcome to Vista Forums!!!!

The company that you ordered your computer from, do they have a website where you could download your chipset and drivers? I think that it might be a problem with your drivers and chipset not being installed right or without the right settings.

Let us know,
Ben

First:
Upload Dump Files
Please go to C:\Windows\Minidump and zip up the contents of the folder. Then upload/attach the .zip file with your next post.
{Left click on the first minidump file.
Hold down the "Shift" key and left click on the last minidump file.
Right click on the blue highlighted area and select "Send to"
Select "Compressed (zipped) folder" and note where the folder is saved.
Upload that .zip file with your next post.

If you have issues with "Access Denied" errors, try copying the files to your desktop and zipping them up from there. If it still won't let you zip them up, post back for further advice.

If you don't have anything in that folder, please check in C:\Windows for a file named MEMORY.DMP. If you find it, zip it up and upload it to a free file hosting service - then post the link to it.
Then, follow the directions here to set your system for Minidumps (much smaller than the MEMORY.DMP file): Set MiniDump

Next:
