    Are you sure it's the display drivers and not the RAM? If the RAM is bad, the BSOD will usually point at any sound and video drivers. Run memtest86+ on both computers to check and see if the RAM is bad. If you didn't update the drivers, I can't really see how that's the problem. As for the DVD drive, is it the DVD drive itself that's broken or the bezel next to it. The DVD drive itself is pretty cheap to buy of eBay.
