Now that we have the info out of the way, here are the synmptoms:
I got the thing about 5-6 weeks ago in trade for my desktop that I built from the ground up. The day after I packed my system up and sent it, the laptop begins to BSOD on me. I begin speaking with friends and run testdisk from a Linux LiveCD and it returns all kinds of errors. Points to the hard drive. I go out and buy a BNIB Western Digital Scorpio Bllack 7200 RPM 320GB and put in. Load Windows 7 Ultimmate, load Asus software and it's off to the races. This was over the course of a week. I can't tell you how bad I hate the system by now, but at least it works.
Fast forward to 2 nighits ago, I am cruising Youtube watching some videos and Google Chrome reports that Shockwave Flash has crashed. I thought Flash was adobe.![]()
At any rate, I uninstall Flash and Reader X for good measure and reinstall them. Then Google Chrome itself begins to crash. Uninstall that too and use Internet Explorer and you guessed it, crash. Now I'm starting to get BSOD with various error codes (124, 7f, etc) so here I am trying to figure out what the devil is wrong with this thing.
Note: When I first got the system it came installed with only 4GB of RAM and I went out and purchased the 3rd module. That's why there are 2 different speeds of RAM. Also, FWIW, the laptop had the same symptoms with only the original 4gb installed, so I really do not believe that the different RAM speeds are the issue.

You might want to try a memtest with just the old ram.
Flash was originally acquired by macromedia, and adobe then acquired macromedia.
Flash could be crashing because of a graphics driver problem.
