    Currently, I've been getting BSOD's almost everyday over the last 4 days. Sometimes it says it's due to a USB bug or problem I forget but other times it just occures with no reason. I've undervolted my CPU but I haven't tested whether it's stable recently only when I first undervolted it. Could my CPU become less tolerant over time???? Also it has only occured on Vista 64....I have a seperate partition with Windows 7 so.....yer....
    Any Help would be much appreciated Thanks!

    have you tested your memory?
    - using MemTest86+

    and have you checked your HDD for errors and bad sectors?
    - using CHKDSK
    .... START > Programs > Accessories > right-click on "Command Prompt" > choose "Run as administrator"
    ..... (in Command Prompt) type: CHKDSK C: /F

    Did you upgrade from Vista to Win7 ?
    If so, you should try a clean install. Also, update your BIOS to the most current one that could help.
