    i was trying to search for people with T61's with my specs that kept bsod'ing.... and can't find any. basically, i never opted for the turbo memory, paid extra to have windows XP pro installed from the factory, and have only 1 dimm of memory. i have all the right stuff to NOT BSOD but yet, i do.... can someone maybe point to WHY it's doing this?

    BSOD can be caused by a ton of things, have you updated drivers/software recently that may be causing issue? Write down the error code and try searching it to maybe narrow the problem down.

    I had a problem with my Lenovo T500 blue screening as well. I downloaded windbg which is able to open the memory dump files and assist in determining the problem. In my case it was the Razer Deathadder mouse drivers

    If you use windbg you dont have to wait for it to bluescreen again you just open the text files from the previous crashes and that will tell you the problem
