Hello! First time poster here and I do hope I've done this correctly! I've just installed windows 8 and am getting seemingly random BSODs. No problems before on Windows 7 so i'm hoping its just a driver issue, however i'm not sure which Driver could be causing the problem.

I've updated Windows update a few times already with no luck.

Thank you for taking a look!

Hello, I reset my bios to default after doing so more reading and so far this AM no BSODs after 3 hours of use. I'll report back later but this might have solved the issue.

I have been running fine all day, seems it was related to a bios setting which i suspect was the memory not being set to "auto".

Sorry for the delay in responding. There just aren't that many people who do BSOD analysis, so at times we get a bit overwhelmed!

I'm glad to hear that you've fixed the problem yourself. Please feel free to post back if the errors recur.
