BSOD on Home premium

[flacracker]

I've been having BSOD for a while now. I don't remember when it started. I am also not that great with computers, please bear with me. I have attempted to follow your directions for posting. It will not let me attach the file due to it's size...12mb

OS is Vista home premium 32bit
It was installed when comp was puchased new
Hardware is about 5 years old
I have not re-installed anything.

As far as when and were BSOD occurs, i seems random but I do notice it more when video or gaming is being attempted.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello, were you able to do step 4 of this : http://www.vistax64.com/crashes-debugging/282419-blue-screen-death-bsod-posting-instructions.html

File is zipped, but forum says it's too large to attach. Limit is 10mb, this file is 12.2mb

On the minidumps , can you just zip up the last 4 or 5 ? Maybe that will be enough for the BSOD squad to work with .

Looking at the above post, I see mention of sending us only a few reports, which is fine. Please send the most current, if not already done.
You will be helped.
For now I would make a memory test with metest86
