Hello, I'm in a pinch right now and I need the help of this community, of possible. My Windows has been showing me that STOP error for the past 2 days (after reformatting). Everything went cool the first day. Installed everything correctly and went on with my business. But then, it just started to go downhill. I've looked up a couple of threads in this forum but I could not understand most of them, however I did download this WhoCrashed program and got the following:

I've uninstalled the Internet and Graphic Card drivers and then installed them again, the same thing happened. I just want to know, do I need to buy new stuff or is there something wrong in the registry? I'm not that good with computers so don't hesitate to ask me for information, because I feel like I left a lot out.

Thanks in advance~

It looks like a software issue, but not sure which one. I suggest fresh reinstalling, not running updates, installing only the main drivers (SATA, audio, LAN, graphics), no other application related to the motherboard and testing. Then install needed applications one by one, trest each for few days then install the other.
You can also try Windows repair from the Windows installation DVD.
