BSOD Alert
Lot's of issues today w/STOP 0x7e and STOP 0x3e errors.
Most, that I've found, relate to 64 bit versions of VISTA
Details at You receive a "Stop 0x0000003E" error message when you try to install Windows Vista Service Pack 2 or Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 on a computer that has certain multiple processors
I suggest checking your update history for KB973879.
If it's installed, uninstall it (it's been removed from Windows Update BTW)
Since I'm not entirely sure about this, I'd make a note of any other updates that
were installed at the same time as KB973879. Uninstalling them won't hurt, and
if they're needed they'll be available through Windows Update anyway.
FYI - the stack text is similar to this:
