Solved BSoD's happening seemingly randomly

Hello

I am having a slight issue with my laptop. I am getting BSoD's far more often than I used to and they seem to be becoming a regular occurrence. However, I cannot seem to find a link to when they are happening. One was when I was un-installing my Adobe Web premium CS5.5 trial (grrr...) and another happened when I was using my webcam. Another happened on PC wakeup.

I have followed the BSoD posting instructions to try and make the debugging as easy as possible.

Thanks in advance for any help

I noticed that as well. Don't worry, I have Avast! antivirus installed. Both Avast! and malwarebytes report my system as clean. Security centre on its own does say I Avast! but for some reason the performance monitor did not detect it.

Most members do not realize that the reports seldom give a definitive answer, they give clues. You have given me 3 bsod reports, each one different cause. They all do show drivers, however, as the cause. This is many times due to a hardware problem. Lets check out the most common hardware problem, memory.

I'm not going to have time to do this until the weekend but thanks for the help. I may not need any more help if I decide to order myself a new computer (which I am planning to do soon)
