Hey all,

I've got an annoying problem in my hands that maybe someone here can help me solve. For quite a while now I get a random BSOD, by random I mean it pops up from 10 days, upto 3-4 months apart and it happens at the most inconvenient times haha,

I have viewed it in the blue screen viewer and can't make any sense of it, any help here would be appreciated, if a fix is around id love to get my hands on it.

Here is the dump file:

Its popped up about 7 times over the past year and its just annoying at this point, but a solution would put my mind at ease.

Also as a second issue which might fix my other one is drivers. I've downloaded Driver Booster and it says 16 drivers need to be updated, one of which is my graphics driver which ill do after posting this, but out of the other 15, which do I really have to download and which ones arent a priority?

Here's a couple of screenshots of the drivers that supposedly need updating:

Any help would again be appreciated,

Cheers,

Jeremy.

Your dump shows it is being caused by ntoskrnl.exe.
Could be driver related but also could be RAM. per this post:

Since it is random and spread out I tend to suspect RAM being the culprit i.e. it only crashes when the PC tries to use that area of the RAM. If it were driver related I'd guess it would happen more often.

Ive ran memtests and the RAM seems to be without any errors. I do have some RAM sticks that I could try ill have to check and see if they're compatible with my current mobo.
