    i dont know why (well i have a guess) but i keep getting this BSOD error alot lately (3 times in the last two weeks) im not really doing anything really tasking on the computer either, no new drivers, no hardware changes, nothing.

    it has only happened while i have bittorrent open, so that is my major culprit, but what would bittorrent do to make my computer crash? ive really only had bittorrent open 3 times and all 3 times its crashed so that is my only guess.

    if you need any other info ill do what i can to help you help me :)

    as of right now, the solution is just no bittorrent, but i want to download america's army (its some free game, no im not pirating :))

    I ditched bit-torrent long ago, when it stopped functioning in my XP computer.
