    Even after i've installed clean windows with only official drivers i received this screen:
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5020311/Photo 11.01.12, 14 07 55.jpg

    Like before i was doing nothing, just webpage was opened. It never happened while i'm playing. Only in windows. Happens about one time in month.

    :(

    On stock windows i was experimenting with different drivers, and thought such crash are the result of my movement. That's why i installed clean windows 7 with only official driver. And still i have such freezes.

    Can't compare intel and ati cause i always sit on ati and cant force laptop to crash, it happens once or twice in month... So its hard to understand why it is.

    No, i Use firefox, but its not related with this program, occurs to me the same way with you, today i have opened firefox and msn and the error occur, i think maybe becose opera and firefox uses a huge amount of processing and memory, this error is obvious physical, hardware, or the memory, processor or VGA (ATI 6670)

    Hi, i think no need a printscreen becose its EXACTLY same error as you show, no diference, the problem is the memory, i remove one of the memory cards and leave only 4GB and the error is gone, if i put the both 4GB memory cards the error appear, i dont think how i can fix it, i will contact the person who sell to me, i have tested both separated the memory cards, and togueder appear de error, separated, no error....

    So your pc is alive. Mine just freezes and only power off helps.

    I reverted to stock bios, will look how it will help me :)
