bit torrenting causing BSOD?

[shawnlizzle]

hey guys, i'm stuck on this thing where my comp gets the bsod when i BT too long. i play games, do everything fine even for extended periods of time (5+ hours). but BT causes bsod like every 45 minutes or less

Update any network connection drivers (Chipset drivers, and USB modem driver (if it is a USB modem of course))

You <may> have bad memory. BT uses and swaps data a lot in RAM. Run memtest86 and see if you get any errors...

Also, what torrent client are you using?

-mpjesse

i use azu, and yes, i did memtest for 5+ hours
